In December 2016, Tunisia was selected by MCC's Board as eligible to develop a five year grant program, known as a Compact, aimed at addressing the binding constraints to investment and entrepreneurship in Tunisia, as identified by a growth diagnostics exercise conducted in early 2017. The growth diagnostics exercise, known as the Constraints Analysis (CA), identified several binding constraint. One of the key identified constraints was an unfavorable business climate, under which investors and businesses face excessive bureaucratic requirements, restricted entry and exit into many activities, burdensome and unclear customs and tax procedures, and an unlevel playing field against competitors.
The objective of this Request for Quote (RFQ) is to receive information about prospective contractors' capabilities to provide professional services to collect data from firms on the following topics:
1. Basic enterprise information such as firm age, size, industry, and revenues
2. Firms' experience with different aspects of the business environment related to the following:
• Customs procedures
• Authorizations
• Transportation and logistics
• Other areas
3. Firms' practices with regard to hiring and promoting women and the perceived costs and benefits to doing so.
4. Additional information to be determined after finalization of the survey instrument.
The information obtained in the survey will help MCC and the Government of Tunisia to determine the most significant problems of business climate facing different types of firms in the areas listed under (2), and further, will be used to estimate the economic rates of return of potential business climate reform projects using cost benefit analysis.
