Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) is a United States government-owned corporation responsible for the stewardship of the Millennium Challenge Account (MCA). MCC works with developing countries to promote sustainable economic growth to reduce poverty. One of MCC's guiding principles is a focus on measurable results. After a country is selected to begin developing a compact, MCC and its country partners undertake an analysis to identify the binding constraints to economic growth in the local economy. Prior to signing a compact, MCC conducts cost-benefit analysis to assess the proposed projects' likely economic impact and cost- effectiveness. MCC also analyzes the likely poverty and distributional impacts of proposed projects as part of a beneficiary analysis. During and after compact implementation, MCC seeks to measure results by monitoring program implementation and conducting rigorous evaluations that seek to learn and quantify the projects' actual impact on household welfare. MCC strives for transparency in all of its programs and posts many of these analyses on the agency's public website.

MCC seeks a Contractor to conduct an analysis on the underlying incentives and stakeholder dynamics on water and waste water tariff reform, water and waste water infrastructure investment and urban planning, and, in the case of tariff reform, propose a way forward in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia.
