No incumbent or budget is listed, though the assessment is for 10-15 priority crops over a six-month period to produce reports on value chains and supporting infrastructure.

DESCRIPTION
Sierra Leone Agricultural Market Assessment (AMA)
The Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) seeks a consultant to assist in project design of the Sierra Leone Compact. While the proposed compact is focused on power, MCC and the Government of Sierra Leone (GoSL) are proposing an activity to enable the productive use of power within agricultural value chains, especially downstream post-harvest in processing, milling, and storage. The goal is to obtain maximum benefits from the proposed energy investment to catalyze inclusive, job-creating private sector growth to reduce food insecurity in Sierra Leone.
The contract type contemplated is a Firm Fixed Price Contract with a separate CLIN for Other Direct Costs. The services specified in each contract line item (CLIN) have been determined to be non-severable services - a specific undertaking or entire job with a defined end product of value to the Government.
