Description:
The Republic of Ghana and the United States of America acting through the Millennium Challenge Corporation (“MCC”) have entered into a Millennium Challenge Compact on August 5, 2014 under which MCC will provide funding to the Government of Ghana (the “Government”), in an amount not to exceed Four Hundred and Ninety-Eight Million, Two Hundred Thousand United States Dollars (US$ 498,200,000) (“MCC Funding”) to facilitate poverty reduction through economic growth (the “Compact”). Pursuant to the terms of the Compact, the Government committed to provide funding as a Government contribution to support implementation of the Compact in an amount equal to no less than seven and one-half percent (7.5%) of the amount of funding provided by MCC in the Compact (the “Government Contribution”).

The Government of Ghana (“GoG”), acting through the Millennium Development Authority (“MiDA” or “MCA Entity”), intends to apply a portion of the MCC Funding to eligible payments under a contract for which this Request for Proposals (“RFP”) is issued. Any payments made by the MCA Entity under the proposed contract will be subject, in all respects, to the terms and conditions of the Compact and related documents, including restrictions on the use and distribution of MCC Funding. No party other than the Government and the MCA Entity shall derive any rights from the Compact or have any claim to the proceeds of MCC Funding. The Compact and its related documents can be found on the MCC website (www.mcc.gov) and on the website of the MCA Entity.

The goal of the Compact program is to reduce poverty through economic growth in Ghana. The objectives of the Compact program are to:

(a) Increase private sector investment and productivity and profitability of micro, small, medium and large-scale businesses;
(b) Increase employment opportunities for men and women; and
(c) Raise earning potential from self-employment and improved outcomes for men and women.
The Program consists of six (6) projects: (i) the ECG Financial and Operational Turnaround Project; (ii) the NEDCo Financial and Operational Turnaround Project ; (iii) the Regulatory Strengthening and Capacity Building Project; (iv) the Access Project; (v) Power Generation Sector Improvement Project ; and (vi) the Energy Efficiency and Demand Side Management Project.

The MCA Entity now invites proposals from legally constituted consulting firms to provide the consultant services referenced above (“Proposals”). More details on these consultant services are provided in the Terms of Reference.
