The Government, acting through MCA-Côte d-Ivoire (the “MCA Entity”), intends to apply a portion of the MCC Funding to eligible payments under a contract for which this Invitation for Bids (“IFB”) is issued. Any payments made by the MCA-Côte d-Ivoire 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.

The Compact program includes two projects:

i. The Skills for Employability and Productivity Project (Skills Project) which aims to increase the number of years of education received and improve the acquisition of quality, in-demand basic skills, including reading, math, and soft skills, for lower secondary students and to improve the acquisition of quality, in-demand technical skills and increase job placement rates among graduates of Compact-supported technical and vocational education and training (“TVET”) centers. The Skills Project is comprised of two Activities: (i) the Secondary Education Activity (“Secondary Education Activity”) and (ii) the Technical and Vocational Education and Training Activity (“TVET Activity”);

ii. The Abidjan Transport Project (Transport Project) aims to reduce vehicle operating costs and travel times along targeted road segments, while improving overall pedestrian and vehicle mobility and safety. The Abidjan Transport Project comprises two Activities, designed to improve efficiency in the transport of people and goods, increase the integration between transport systems, and improve road safety and pavement surface conditions in Abidjan along the major transport arteries. A fundamental component of this Project is that by Compact-end, the Government-s transport-related agencies will have been trained in and provided the knowledge and experience to maintain, rehabilitate, and improve Côte d-Ivoire-s existing road network utilizing skills and training enabled under the Compact coupled with improved road management and safety databases and planning tools.
