About this opportunity
The Millennium Challenge Corporation seeks to engage a contractor to conduct strategic assessments of digital, data and innovation ecosystems in partner countries to identify strengths, weaknesses impacting data availability and use, and recommendations to integrate digital investments into programs. Assessments require expertise in specified sectors and collaboration with MCC, with initial focus on Zambia. Proposals are due June 24, 2022 and will be evaluated based on technical approach, management plan, and past performance. A one year base period and four one year options are anticipated, with two country assessments expected per year.
There is no set-aside designation. Assessments will inform compact development under NAICS 541611 and PSC D302. No incumbent or budget is identified, though the place of performance is Washington, D.C. and international locations. Amendments provide clarification on personnel, countries in scope, and response to vendor questions. The time and materials contract has an anticipated five year period to conduct recurring digital ecosystem assessments to support MCC programs in multiple nations.
