REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR CONSULTANCY SERVICES FOR CONDUCTING FEASIBILITY STUDY AND PROJECT PREPARATION FOR THE CLIMATE ADAPTIVE IRRIGATION PROJECT IN IRINGA, TANZANIA
BACKGROUND
In 2022 PACE created the so-called Climate Adaptive Irrigation (CAI) project and partnered with its client named KW Infrastructure Consulting Pte Ltd to develop CAI in the Kilolo district of Iringa region Tanzania, and it is expected to commence in the year 2023. Among other things, the project will support the Government of Tanzania’s efforts of sustaining food security during expected related climate challenges through restoration and enhancement of smart and climate-resilient irrigation systems, including associated ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) to strengthen irrigation practices in Kilolo. KW is a Singapore-based Investments and Transaction Advisory Firm focused on direct debt investments and capital raising for private and public enterprises. KW specializes in Non-Recourse Financing including instrument-based nonrecourse financing and sustainable infrastructure. KW seeks to spur Economic Growth in Africa attracting growth into the most vibrant sectors of the Economy and envisions an “Africa with zero poverty”.
Through this RFP, the partnership seeks to engage the services of an experienced Technical Consultant to conduct a feasibility study and project preparation for over 600 acres of a climate-adaptive irrigation project in Kilolo District, Iringa Region, Tanzania.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of the feasibility study is to undertake a comprehensive screening of the Tanzania vegetable sector to understand various vegetable market sizes and how they are structured within and outside Tanzania. One of the key objectives will be to understand the source of water for irrigation, water variability, soil suitability and pricing dynamics of horticultural crops from the farm gate to the export market (local and international), local production capability, and the trickle-down benefits to farmers at the bottom of the value chain.
Moreover, the study will cover the suitability of animal husbandry, particularly cattle beef and dairy rearing. Other livestock and poultry may also be considered both for the local and international markets. In conclusion, the study will equally address the infrastructure necessary to implement the project. These may include but are not limited to boreholes, irrigation channels, warehouses, other storage facilities, a restaurant, hotel apartments, conference and training facilities, workers’ quarters, waste management facilities, cattle sheds, and renewable energy generation among others.
