- Description
- This contract will be awarded using FAR Part 15 procedures.�The Government contemplates award of a Firm Fixed Price contract. The US Army Corps of Engineers Institute for Water Resources seeks services and support supporting the Mekong River Commission (MRC) in the development of a Shared Vision Planning (SVP) webtool.� The MRC is an intergovernmental organization for regional dialogue and cooperation in the Lower Mekong River Basin, established in 1995 based on the Mekong Agreement between member countries - Cambodia, Lao PDR, Thailand and Vietnam. The organization serves as a regional platform for water diplomacy and a knowledge hub of water resources management for the sustainable development of the region. USACE currently has a formalized agreement with the MRC to collaborate on a wide range of water resources management efforts. �The MRC regional office is headquartered in Laos and each member country has their own committee office within their countries� borders. �� SVP is a process that requires the collaborative development of a decision support tool � herein referred to as the SVP tool. The SVP tool is designed to support the Mekong River Commission (MRC) Basin Development Strategy (BDS) 2021-2030 at both the national and regional levels. �The tool is being designed to enhance the ability by member countries to integrate and examine data from various MRC databases. The purpose is to provide access to data that facilitates dialogues across sectors and countries and serve as part of the MRC toolkit in support of the Basin Development Plan outcomes. As a result, it is very important to facilitate a collaborative development process of the SVP tool, which ensures the tool is designed for the user needs. This contract will facilitate member country participants the ability to come together, collaborate, provide inputs to the tool�s implementation, and begin using the tool to conduct social, economic, and environmental modeling analysis of principle basin development scenarios. This activity implemented by USACE is part of the US Department of State Mekong US Partnership (MUSP) to promote regional stability and security by strengthening cooperation on shared water ways viable to tens of millions of people in Southeast Asia.� It is anticipated the workshops will be in late February 2023 after the Tet holiday.� This request for proposals will use tiered evaluation of offers in accordance with DFARS 215.203-70. Small businesses that submit an acceptable technical proposal and achieve a fair and reasonable price proposal will be given preference.�� See the SF33 and the supporting documents for additional information. Questions are due no later than 430PM EST on Monday 19 December 2022. Questions received after the deadline for questions may or may not be answered.
