SOL-263-17-000012 DAI/MESR
Added: October 30, 2022
The United States Agency for International Development in Egypt (USAID/Egypt) intends to modify DAI Global, LLC (DAI) contract # AID- 263-C-18-00002 for the purpose of increasing the contract Total Estimated Cost (TEC) by up to $2,500,000, from the current $23,858,763 to $26,358,763; expanding the scope of activities under the contract and extending the current period of performance and completion date specified in the contract (April 2, 2018 - April 1, 2023) by twelve months to April 1, 2024.
The statutory authority permitting this award without providing full and open competition is AIDAR 706.302-70(b)(5), based on the authority provided by 40 U.S.C. 113(e)(2)), provides an exception to full and open competition when it would impair or otherwise have an adverse effect on programs conducted for the purposes of foreign aid, relief, and rehabilitation.
DAI completed its delivery requirements under existing contract AID- 263-C-18-00002. With this extension, USAID intends to modify the contract’s scope of work by enhancing the four areas specified below:
Build the capacity within the Ministry of Planning and Economic Development (MPED) to develop the "Green National Accounts" and the "Green gross Domestic Product (GDP)” estimates that incorporate the impact of the environmental variables when measuring economic activities.
Support the efforts of the MPED to establish and build the technical capacity of an internal unit for Climate Change and environmental sustainability policies.
Build the capacity of the newly established Fiscal Risks Unit at the Ministry of Finance (MOF) to identify, analyze, and monitor fiscal risks, especially those related to climate change factors and the related fiscal policies to be adopted to address those risks.
Support the efforts of the MOF to implement its new Medium Term Revenue Strategy in collaboration with the International Monetary Fund, especially providing technical support and capacity building to the newly established Tax Policy Unit (TPU).
