Infrastructure Consulting Services for Benin Regional Compact

This is a Presolicitation Notice. MCC requires infrastructure consulting services for independent oversight of the implementation of Benin Regional Compact. This includes transport infrastructure of roadways, bridges, cross border facilities, pavement, as well as Policy and Institutional Reforms. These services include a wide range of technical assistance tasks to support MCC’s program objectives during the compact implementation. It is important to note that MCC engages in a multidisciplinary approach to program development, and as such, the services required could include cross-cutting tasks related to the integration of key priorities (e.g. climate, gender and inclusion) and other related disciplines (e.g. environment and social performance, health and safety).

The Consultant shall assist in monitoring engineering, environmental, and social components of project implementation to ensure completion of projects in accordance with the objectives, specifications, applicable MCC policy requirements, and conditions precedent to disbursement of the compact. The Contractor shall advise MCC by conducting periodic in-country and desk reviews to provide assurance that funding should be continued and that projects are on track to meet agreed-upon specifications, schedules, milestones, and budgets related. Additionally, the Contractor shall assist in identifying potential unforeseen impacts of implementation and provide recommendations for resolution.

A full solicitation is expected to be released no later than November 22, 2024. On November 21, 2024, MCC intends to hold an information session with the public and potential offerors. The purpose of the information session is for MCC to share the type of support and personnel that will be needed for this procurement. As well as to provide context and background on the Compact. The information session will be held via Microsoft TEAMS and is expected to last 30 minutes. Please note that participants will not be able to ask questions during this time.
