Additional Clarification Questions and USAID Responses

Amendment No. 0003 to Solicitation No. 72030624R00009 Women and Men in Agriculture (WAMA) Activity

Question No. 1: In Amendment 0001, USAID’s answer to Question 33 allows offerors to use four (4) pages for Annex E, the Abbreviated Draft Activity MECLA Plan. However, in Amendment 0002, USAID’s answer to Question 3 directs offerors to include the QASP with the Abbreviated Draft Activity MECLA Plan in Annex E and removes the requirement to use USAID’s QASP template. These instructions do not include an updated page count for Annex E.

Based on our experience of writing QASPs and MECLA plans, we would request that USAID give offerors a total of fifteen (15) pages for the combined Abbreviated Draft Activity MECLA Plan and QASP in Annex E.

USAID Response: Annex E page limit is updated to allow Offerors up to fifteen (15) pages for the combined abbreviated draft Activity MECLA Plan and QASP.
