About this opportunity
The USAID Vietnam Mission seeks to award an anticipated five-year cost-type contract to provide services under the USAID Improving Private Sector Competitiveness activity. The contractor will support four objectives: building business management capacity for small and growing businesses, especially women- and minority-led firms; improving efficiency and innovation through technology adoption and sustainable business models; enhancing the business enabling environment; and strengthening business-to-business and cross-sectoral linkages. USAID intends to issue a solicitation in late February or early March 2020, with evaluation criteria to be detailed at that time. Interested parties should monitor the Federal Business Opportunities website and solicitation number for updates.
There is no set-aside designation for this procurement. The activity's primary counterpart is Vietnam's Ministry of Planning and Investment, with the Vietnam Women's Union as a co-counterpart. The estimated value is unavailable at this time. Prospective offerors are advised to periodically check the solicitation for additional details when issued in the coming months.
