Provision of a Fund Manager for the Biodiverse Landscape Fund
Notice Description
At the 2019 UN General Assembly the Prime Minister announced a new PS100m Biodiverse Landscapes Fund (BLF) to restore key landscapes and their ecosystems and support human development objectives in global biodiversity hotspots. The Authority is now tendering a requirement to appoint a Fund Manager (FM) to manage approx. PS86.6m of Official Development Assistance (ODA) grant funding in 18 countries grouped into six landscapes, over a period of 9 financial years. The fund may be extended by a period, or periods, totalling 36 months. The FM will be required to administer delivery partner competitions on the Authority's behalf, manage and monitor the grants, co-ordinate BLF-wide learning, and provide associated services. Additional information: As described in the procurement documents, Tenderers must sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement to access part of the procurement documents. The Authority has extended the timeline for receipt of bids by 5 days, from 30 days to 35 days, to account for this requirement.
