The tender, titled "Developer Services," falls under the category of foreign economic aid-related services and is set in the United Kingdom, with applications being accepted until December 22, 2016. InfraCo Africa plans to award up to two contracts, each valued at USD $15 million, to support infrastructure projects over a four-year contractual period starting on July 31, 2017. This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses looking to expand their operations in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly those with expertise in project development and infrastructure services. Companies that are able to demonstrate the capability to manage large-scale projects and provide the necessary resources to local partners would be well-suited to compete for this tender. The procurement process is based on a selective negotiated procedure, which allows for a competitive yet collaborative environment for potential contractors. ## Notice InfraCo Africa seeks to alleviate poverty by mobilising investment into sub-Saharan infrastructure projects: it does this by funding teams of experienced project developers or by investing directly into projects which need the financial commitment and leverage that InfraCo Africa can bring. InfraCo Africa is procuring developer services for sub-Saharan projects where the local project partner does not have the resource or experience to act as the lead developer. Developers will be expected to undertake the activities necessary to originate and progress an infrastructure project as set out in the Procurement Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, it is expected that successful developers will be able to provide services in Sub-Saharan Africa. InfraCo Africa is looking to award up to two contracts. Each contract will allocate up to USD $15 million to each successful Applicant, to cover third party project costs and developer time on approved projects, over a four year period (with possible extensions as set out in the Procurement Documents). On November 21st 2016, InfraCo Africa launched its 2016/17 Developer Services Procurement (OJEU publication number 2016/S 226-411718). InfraCo Africa is voluntarily choosing to follow a procurement process based on the Competitive Procedure with Negotiation for award of a public contract, as set out within the UK Public Contracts Regulations 2015. The procurement will comprise two stages: stage 1, the Developer Services Selection Questionnaire (DSSQ); and stage 2, the Tender as set out in the Procurement Documents. Stage 1 will be used to shortlist 10 potential Applicants to go through to Stage 2. Please see the DSSQ and Procurement Documents for further details. Following evaluation of Applicants' Initial Tenders at Stage 2, InfraCo Africa may either award the Contract to the Applicants offering the most economically advantageous tender at that Stage without entering into negotiations, or choose to negotiate in accordance with the UK Procurement Guidelines and procedure as set out in the Procedure Documents. It is anticipated that contracts will be awarded in July 2017 and work commence under the new contracts in August. The information relating to the nature and scope of the services to be provided under the developer services contract(s) and indication of InfraCo Africa's minimum needs and requirements are set out in the Procurement Documents. The contract will be awarded in US$ and tenders should be submitted in US$, however the contract value set out in this notice is provided in GBP and so subject to fluctuating exchange rates. The maximum value of this Procurement Exercise, as set out in this notice is the combined value of up to US$30m (equivalent to PS24m on 23.11.2016) if InfraCo Africa chooses to award two developer service contracts. For the avoidance of doubt, if only one contract is awarded, the maximum value of a contract will be up to USD $15m ## Key Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication source | Contracts Finder | | Latest notice | https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2d6e0cb9-0e51-42e8-a763-620951eab2ec | | Notice type | Tender Notice | | Procurement type | Standard | | Procurement category | Services | | Procurement method | Selective | | Procurement method details | Negotiated procedure | | Tender suitability | SME | | Awardee scale | Not specified | | All stages | Tender | ## Dates | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Publication date | 25 Nov 2016 | | Submission deadline | 22 Dec 2016 | | Future notice date | Not specified | | Award date | Not specified | | Contract period | 30 Jul 2017 - 31 Jul 2021 | | Recurrence | Not specified | ## Values | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender value | Not specified | | Lots value | Not specified | | Awards value | Not specified | | Contracts value | Not specified | ## Status | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Tender status | Active | | Lots status | Not specified | | Awards status | Not specified | | Contracts status | Not specified | ## Buyer | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Main buyer | INFRACO AFRICA LIMITED | | Locality | LONDON | | Post town | Central London | | Postcode | WC1V 7LL | | Country | England | | ITL 1 | TLI London | | ITL 2 | TLI3 Inner London - West | | ITL 3 | TLI36 Camden | | Local authority | Camden | | Electoral ward | Holborn & Covent Garden | | Westminster constituency | Holborn and St Pancras | | Delivery location | Not specified | ## CPV Codes ### Divisions - 75 - Administration, defence and social security services ### Codes - 75211200 - Foreign economic-aid-related services ## Release History - 25 Nov 2016 at 10:46 - Tender - Tender Notice - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2d6e0cb9-0e51-42e8-a763-620951eab2ec ## Documents - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/2d6e0cb9-0e51-42e8-a763-620951eab2ec 25th November 2016 - Opportunity notice on Contracts Finder - https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/Notice/Attachment/d8d1d28f-c12e-48a5-96cf-d68f95d286b9 OJEU Notice - http://www.infracoafrica.com/workingwith-you/respond-to-a-tender/ The procurement documents are available for unrestricted and full direct access, free of charge, at: ## Notice URLs - http://www.infracoafrica.com ## Provenance This Markdown file is an alternate public rendering of the D3 Tenders contract record.
