About this opportunity
The U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) is seeking to award a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee completion contract for the Feed the Future Democratic Republic of the Congo Resilient Food Systems activity. The purpose of this 5-year contract is to increase the income and nutritional status of the targeted population through an inclusive and sustainable food and market systems-oriented approach that facilitates agriculture-led growth and utilization of nutritious food. The key objectives are to promote inclusive and sustainable systems for agriculture-led economic growth, increase resilience, and increase consumption of safe and nutritious food. USAID is seeking feedback on the draft Statement of Work and contract deliverables, particularly for the 6-month inception phase, and may award one or two contracts based on the finalized requirements. USAID reserves the right to make changes prior to the Request for Proposals release and may choose not to make an award.
This opportunity is not set-aside, and USAID has not identified any potential incumbents or current contractors. The proposed activity aims to reduce poverty and severe malnutrition (stunting) by 20 percent in the designated Feed the Future Zone of Influence within Kongo Central and Kasai Central provinces over the 5-year period. USAID has not provided specific details on the award value or budget range for this opportunity.

The broad objectives of the Resilient Food Systems activity are to:
- Promote inclusive and sustainable systems and practices for agriculture-led economic growth.
- Increase sources of resilience among individuals, households, communities and systems; and
- Increase the consumption of safe and nutritious food
PROPOSED CONTRACT TYPE: Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) completion contract.
We are interested in feedback on the content and clarity of the Statement of Work (SOW), and feedback on Section F, particularly in terms of the Contract Deliverables planned for the inception phase of the Contract.
