C.1 INTRODUCTION

The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) is a U.S. Government corporation formed to help low income and low middle income countries reduce poverty through the promotion of sustainable economic growth. MCC operates on the principle that aid is most effective when it strengthens good governance, economic freedom and investments in people. MCC awards multi-year grants known as "Compacts" to partner countries that meet its selection criteria and propose programs that address their constraints to economic growth. Once developed and agreed, MCC compacts must be implemented by those partner countries within terms of not more than five years.

Effective use of geospatial technologies and information can improve development, oversight and evaluation of MCC-funded programs. Increasingly, MCC staff across the Infrastructure, Environment and Private Sector Division (IEPS) are relying on geospatial information, technologies and analyses in their work. The agency's approach to date has been somewhat ad hoc, however. The division does not have a systematic, coordinated approach to employing appropriate geospatial technologies and techniques in the development and oversight of investments. Opportunities for more effective and efficient operations through better use of geospatial information and related technologies are being lost.

The successful firm will provide technical advice, support, and coordination for effective use of geospatial information and technology across the IEPS Division. And while reporting and providing direct support to IEPS, the firm will help IEPS coordinate our use of geospatial information with other key MCC offices, including the Department of Compact Operations Front Office and the Office of the Chief Information Officer.

C.2 CONTEXT

In February of 2015 MCC held an agency-wide call for ideas to improve effectiveness. MCC management selected the use of geospatial information as the highest priority and a consulting firm was hired through a competitive process to provide technical assistance in the development of a geospatial strategy. The first step was a needs assessment that engaged over 60 staff across MCC through key informant interviews, an agency-wide survey, a workshop to validate findings and prioritize recommendations, and the development of recommendations in collaboration with a steering committee represented by MCC' s Departments of Compact Operations, Administration and Finance, and Policy and Evaluation.

The product was a Geospatial Information Needs Assessment and Strategy (Strategy's summary is attached in Annex two) which was approved by MCC management on April 28, 2016. Key findings were:

1) Using geospatial technology is important in achieving MCC's goals.

2) MCC has implemented excellent examples of good practice within existing compacts, but the use of geospatial information is largely ad hoc and inconsistent across investments and organization units. This is primarily a result of low awareness of geospatial applications within MCC, few systems in place to support them, and varying capacity and data resources within MCAs and partner countries.

3) Data are being produced but not captured consistently for use across the investment cycle. Geospatial work products by consultants and contractors are inconsistent and are not systematically collected and stored to maximize their use and value.

4) Awareness of the potential utility of geospatial data and applications is uneven across the organization. Current use at MCC exists in pockets and is driven by staff with prior experience in geospatial technology and information. While MCC staff do NOT need to be geospatial experts, they DO need to be competent consumers of geospatial data and services.

The Strategy offered four broad recommendations, two of which are relevant to this contract:

1) Facilitate more consistent and effective use of geospatial information. MCC should realize quick wins described in the Geospatial Strategy. These include creating the enabling conditions such as better guidelines, standards, contract templates, and information security protocols to capture and share geospatial information consistently throughout compacts and threshold programs. For information collected to be broadly useful, MCC should consistently capture geospatial metadata; this process can be quickly and easily improved by establishing standard contract requirements for geospatial deliverables. As part of the due diligence process, MCC should help extend the benefit of using geospatial information to MCA partners.

2) Make more informed investment and operational decisions. MCC should take full advantage of available geospatial tools and information to improve decision making. To that end, MCC should require location-based recording and reporting of MCC's work (at multiple geospatial scales – including national, sub-national, exact project location) and associated documents. This will facilitate transparency and improve the visibility and traceability of MCC's investments.

Two additional recommendations remain relevant but are largely outside the scope of this contract, as they are managed by other operational units at MCC. Nonetheless, the selected consultant should assist and guide IEPS to improve coordination with other relevant MCC units in these areas:

3) Support monitoring and evaluation. MCC should collect consistent aerial project imagery during the compact lifecycle (planning, design, implementation, and post-compact) to enable automated geospatial change detection.

This could complement costly field surveys, and when they are required, help scope them so they are well targeted. A key partner for IEPS in this regard will be MCC's Monitoring and Evaluation unit.

4) Communicate better with external audiences. MCC should develop an interactive public web map to communicate compact activities with increasing geographic specificity. This will expand on MCC's industry-leading transparency work and provide stakeholders with a better sense of what MCC is doing where. In the short term, this would involve mapping project information at a sub-national level. As more spatially explicit information becomes available, geographic project locations could be mapped. With this increased detail, project information could be mapped along with contextual data to illustrate decision logic and M&E reporting data to convey investment outcomes. Geospatial information and technology provide powerful and effective communication tools. A key partner for IEPS in this work will be the Agency's Congressional and Public Affairs Department.

Subsequent to the Geospatial Strategy, initial drafts of some guidance material were developed. This included administration guidance on geospatial data delivery and metadata creation, a metadata best practice document, and a geospatial resource guide including a comprehensive list of top GIS software vendors, most popular geospatial data sharing platforms, frequently used geospatial maps and services, and mobile data collection tools useful for MCC investments.

C.3 SCOPE OF WORK

The Geospatial Information Services contract for IEPS will provide support in two broad areas listed below. Both areas will be supported in the base contract as well as in the two options years.

A. SUPPORT IEPS DUE DILIGENCE OF COUNTRY PROGRAMS

Our objective is to provide geospatial technical assistance to IEPS management and staff responsible for scoping, designing, preparing and overseeing Compact and Threshold Programs. This would include, but not be limited to:

1) Providing technical assistance. Areas include (but are not limited to):

a. Opportunities to improve due diligence, decision-making, and oversight through the use of geospatial tools, technology, and information.

b. Assessing geospatial information needs and opportunities for an individual compact/threshold program, identifying appropriate geospatial tools and information to meet those needs, and supporting IEPS' oversight efforts involving their application.

c. At an IEPS Division level, assessing and selecting the appropriate technology and related software/IT platform(s) to be used for a given geospatial information objective, including the administrative requirements such as how to standup the system and coordinate responsibilities across MCC teams and contractors, MCAs and their contactors. This will include an appropriate mix of agency-approved cloud based applications (such as ESRI's ArcGIS Online, Collector, and Survey123 for ArcGIS and associated hardware, such as smartphones and GPS-enabled tablets) and desktop applications (such as ArcGIS).

d. Developing technical specifications and scopes of work for GIS-related work.

e. Day to day use of geospatial information and technology, providing authoritative guidance to IEPS staff.

2) Assisting implementation of geospatial work (data collection/generation, compilation and analyses) in support of IEPS involvement in program scoping, design, due diligence and oversight. Provision of related "on-the-job" training/mentoring for IEPS staff as appropriate.

3) Supporting IEPS interface with other MCC units and MCA staff, contractors, and other stakeholders or outside agencies regarding geospatial systems and opportunities in Compacts and Threshold Programs, as appropriate.

4) Travel to MCC countries to provide in country support for IEPS staff as appropriate, e.g. where the work will have relevance and applicability for multiple MCC country programs.

B. COORDINATION

IEPS's generation and use of geospatial information must be consistent with policies and systems developed by MCC.

Because agency policies and systems will inform IEPS use of geospatial information, the consultant may be called upon to:

1) Advise IEPS Management on key opportunities, constraints and recommended courses of action for using geospatial data and technology in the development and oversight of investments.

2) Contribute to IEPS planning and coordination related to the use of geospatial information for due diligence and oversight. This may include geospatial standards, policy, programs and technology related to IEPS staff's core day to day tasks and objectives.

3) Help IEPS develop technical guidelines, standards, contract templates and other guidance essential for effective due diligence and oversight. One aim of IEPS is to adequately capture and share geospatial information consistently throughout Compacts and Threshold Programs. This may require coordination with management in other agency departments regarding relevant technical, legal and operational policies and procedures relevant to such guidelines and standards, including those related to data security and personally identifiable information

(PII).

4) Support IEPS coordination with relevant MCC offices (e.g. DCO Front Office and Office of the Chief Information Officer). This may include (but not be limited to) guidance on technical challenges such as integration, configuration and interfacing with data storage requirements for web-based enterprise architecture applications;

sharing data between MCC and overseas counterpart agencies (MCA's); advising IEPS on how to help the Agency meet relevant United States Government requirements on data collection, storage and sharing; and systems for retrieving data from contractors and consultants.

The contractor may be called on to perform other related duties.

H.3 MCC 52.232-73 TRAVEL REIMBURSEMENT (MAY 2017)

Policy. When authorized as part of the Scope of Work on this contract/order and within the contract/order ceiling and as approved by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) and/or other MCC officials as described below, travel expenses incurred in performance of technical directives issued under this contractor/order may be reimbursed as allowed by the Federal Travel Regulations (FTR) in effect at the time of travel. MCC's supplemental policy interpretations are derived from the FTR and cannot grant additional benefits or adjust processes defined in the FTR. Supplemental policies of MCC set forth below:

a) Traveler Responsibilities. All contractor travelers must:

1) Exercise the same care in incurring expenses that a prudent person would exercise if traveling on personal business;

2) Travel in accordance with the FTR and the MCC policies included in this document; and

3) Pay any charges or fees associated with non-compliance of FTR or any MCC policies included in this document, and any expenses incurred for personal convenience. For example, the traveler may become personally responsible for travel costs associated with unauthorized use of other than coach class accommodations, failing to follow the Fly American Act requirements, exceeding per diem rates, changing departure or return flights, purchasing unapproved items, etc. regardless of the fact that travel arrangements may have been booked by others (e.g., Travel Agency).

b) Cabin Class Standards

1) The standard cabin class for contractor air-travel is coach class, regardless of destination or travel time.

2) Coach "premium" class may be authorized for destinations which have a travel time of more than 14 hours, consistent with the Federal Travel Regulations and the approval standards outlined in paragraph (f) of this document.

3) Business class travel accommodations will NOT be authorized except as determined through the approval process outlined in paragraph (f) of this document. This approval process is considered to be exceptional, to be part of a trip by trip analysis, and at the discretion of the government regardless of the destination or travel time.

c) Airlines and Flights. In accordance with the Fly America Act, contractors must use a U.S. flag air carrier service for all travel funded by the government beginning or ending in the U.S. unless a specific exemption to the "Fly America" rule applies.

Flights on U.S. air carrier pairings with foreign carriers (i.e., code share flights) are regarded as meeting Fly America requirements if the ticket is issued on the American carrier and there is an American carrier flight number.

d) Limitations. Travel reimbursement, which is part of ODC, shall not exceed the authorized ODC amount on the contract. To be reimbursable, the travel expenses must be:

1) Allowable under the FTR and the provisions of this contract/order and associated technical directives;

2) Approved prior to travel expenditure by the COR; and

3) Allocable and necessary for performance of this contract/order and associated technical directives.

e) Reimbursement Requests. Travel reimbursement requests must be submitted in sufficient time for the COR to give prior approval, and must identify:

1) The name of the traveler.

2) Destination (s) including itinerary.

3) Purpose of the travel; and

4) Cost breakdown.

5) To be reimbursed, invoices including travel expenses must provide a detailed breakdown of the actual expenditures invoiced. Contractor shall maintain the original or legible copy of receipts for all travel expenses invoiced when the expenditure is $75.00 or more. MCC reserves the right to request evidence of any travel expense paid.

f) Approvals. All travel expenses, including rental cars, must be approved by the MCC COR in writing in advance of booking any travel and incurring travel expenses. The following expense types require additional MCC pre-approvals beyond that of the COR. These additional approvals and associated justifications will be documented in writing:

1) Business class - Business class travel is considered to be exceptional, to be determined as part of a trip by trip analysis, and at the discretion of the government regardless of the destination or travel time. To reflect the exceptional nature of this approval, the justification for use of business class must be prepared by the COR and approved in writing by the relevant Managing Director or Deputy Vice President of the organization requesting the contractor to travel. The single exception to requiring this justification and approval for every trip in question is when a State Department approved medical accommodation has been granted.
