- Description
- The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI) is releasing a solicitation for the Support Which Implements Fast Transition (SWIFT) 6 Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Contract which provides USAID/OTI with the means to support U.S.foreign policy objectives by catalyzing local initiatives to advance stability, peace, and democracy in response to complex political crises. The SWIFT IDIQ contract is one of USAID/OTI�s tools that enables USAID to seize emerging windows of opportunity in the political landscape to provide adaptive and agileprogramming in countries or regions. To accomplish this, the SWIFT 6 IDIQ is structured around two service areas/components: 1) Implementation of Transition Programs (SWIFT-Programs); and, 2) Program Operations Technical Assistance Support (SWIFT-Support) - restricted to Small Business Set-Aside. Under the SWIFT-Programs component, the Contractor through specific Task Orders will: a) establish, staff , manage, operate, and support a flexible, quick-response mechanism capable of administering and implementing targeted activities under OTI Country or Regional Programs; b) undertake programmatic research initiatives; and, c) provide support to program-funded USAID personnel. Under the SWIFT-Support component, the Contractor through specific Task Orders will: a) recruit and deploy technical assistance to support OTI program operations; and, b) provide support to program-funded USAID personnel. Task Orders that are issued under this IDIQ will specify: the country or region within which an engagement will occur; the initial objectives of the Task Order statement of work; the specific services anticipated; and illustrative program activities. The SWIFT 6 IDIQ has a ten (10) year ordering period with an additional two- (2) year period of performance for ongoing Task Orders. The unrestricted (SWIFT-Programs) and restricted small-business set-aside (SWIFT-Support) components of the IDIQ will share the overall SWIFT 6 IDIQ ceiling. The estimated ceiling for the SWIFT 6 IDIQ will be $5 billion dollars for the entire period of performance. The Government anticipates approximately eight (8) to ten (10) awards under the unrestricted component of the SWIFT 6 IDIQ, which may include one (1) to two (2) small business reserve contracts. The Government also anticipates approximately three (3) to five (5) awards to small business concerns under the restricted small business set-aside. USAID will use a Voluntary Down Select method for this acquisition, which means that the proposal submission and evaluation process will take place in two phases. Further information is included in the attached RFP.� Please reference the Amendment(s) for updated information.
