REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS FOR FISCAL AGENT SERVICES

MCA-GAMBIA

The Government of the Republic of The Gambia (“Government”) and the Millennium Challenge Corporation (“MCC”) entered into a grant agreement as of November 16, 2021, under which MCC provides up to $25 million of grant assistance for a “Threshold Program.”  The Government intends to apply a part of the proceeds of that funding to payments for contracts for goods, works and services. The Government has formed an accountable entity, known as Millennium Challenge Account–Gambia (“MCA-Gambia”), within the Ministry of Petroleum and Energy (the “Ministry”), to manage the Threshold Program.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Threshold Program Grant Agreement, related agreements, and the availability of funds, the Government intends to use a portion of the funds to finance professional fiscal agent services from a legally constituted firm (“Fiscal Agent” or “Consultant”) to assist the Government with the implementation of the threshold program in a transparent and sound manner. The Fiscal Agent will provide such support in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in an agreement (the “Fiscal Agent Agreement”), the form of which is attached to this Request for Proposals (“RFP”) in Section VI. In issuing the RFP, the Government is represented by MCA-Gambia.

MCA-Gambia requires the services of the Fiscal Agent (“FA”) for a base period of twelve (12) months at a fixed price. Thereafter, MCA-Gambia will require three (3) 12-month option periods at a fixed price. The RFP follows the General Procurement Notice that appeared in dgMarket on March 18, 2022, UNDB Online on March 24, 2022 and MOPE website on March 25, 2022. The Government now invites proposals from legally constituted consulting firms and other organizations to provide the Fiscal Agent services (“Proposals”).
