- Description
- Dear Prospective Offerors: Subject solicitation is amended -���������� To include the following paragraph under part III - Evaluation and Selection Factors: �USAID policy specifies that USNs are preferred over TCNs. Therefore, USN and TCN offers will not be evaluated together. USAID will evaluate USN offers first and if the CO determines that there are no qualified USNs, only then will USAID evaluate TCN offers.� -���������� To extend the closing date to July 5, 2021 � Antananarivo time Offers already submitted in response to the above referenced solicitation number do not need to re-submit. All other terms and conditions of the existing solicitation remain unchanged. Any questions must be directed to the Point of Contact specified in the Attachment. USAID/Madagascar is deepening its engagement with the private sector to both create and expand upon opportunities to advance the Mission�s development objectives in health, food security, trade, environment, energy, and democracy and governance while identifying and pursuing targets of opportunity for economic growth. This position will significantly enhance the Mission�s ability to support and respond to these program areas.�� The position of Private Sector Engagement (PSE) Advisor is located in the Sustainable Environment and Economic Development (SEED) Office, USAID/Madagascar Mission. The PSE Advisor reports to the SEED Office Director. In order to build a long lasting culture of PSE, the incumbent is tasked with training and coaching the Cooperating Country National (CCN) PSE Specialist that will be hired so that he/she can take on the duties in the long term. The PSE Advisor will work hand in hand with the PSE Specialist in order to train and mentor him/her, especially in policies coming out of Washington, in building capacity of other Mission staff, and in establishing relationships with U.S. companies and increasing two-way trade. In this context, the incumbent will help the Specialist establish and maintain relationships with the private sector in order to build partnerships and leverage resources to achieve development outcomes. Initially, he/she will serve as the primary liaison for private sector centered initiatives and activities such as Prosper Africa, Power Africa, the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), and the Trade and Investment Hubs in East and Southern Africa. This role will then be transferred gradually over to the Specialist. As a PSE champion within the USAID/Madagascar Mission, the PSE Advisor will help lead Mission efforts to implement USAID�s PSE policy. This includes working with technical and support offices in the Mission, the PSE Working Group, the Embassy�s Political Economic (Pol/ Econ) Section, and stakeholders in Washington, to develop and/or implement an operational, Mission-wide PSE plan, which will adopt and expand the Mission�s PSE practices and build capacity and processes to institutionalize the Agency�s PSE Policy across the USAID/Madagascar Mission. The incumbent will build support for and promote awareness of PSE and its potential for achieving more-sustainable outcomes across sectors. He/she will help technical offices integrate PSE into the program cycle and design process. In performance of his/her responsibilities, the incumbent will serve as the PSE point of contact for USAID/Madagascar with Washington (USAID/W).� He/She, along with the Specialist, will represent USAID at high level meetings with the Government of Madagascar (GOM) representatives, development partners, and private sector actors.� The PSE Advisor will also represent USAID at high level interagency settings.
