Rehabilitation of Sorlumba Biomas Energy

The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in Liberia intends to award a sole source contract to Phoenicia Architecture & Construction, based in Monrovia, Liberia, for the rehabilitation of the Sorlumba Biomass Energy Project (SBEP). This sole source award is authorized under AIDAR 706.302-70(a)(2) and 40 U.S.C. 113, which allow exceptions to full and open competition when such competition would adversely affect foreign aid, relief, and rehabilitation programs. Phoenicia Architecture & Construction had previously completed 30% of the SBEP rehabilitation as a subcontractor under a competitively awarded prime contract but was unable to finish its work before the prime contract expired. No solicitation package will be issued for this procurement, and the notice does not constitute a request for competitive proposals. The contract falls under NAICS code 237130 and will be performed in Monrovia, Liberia. USAID representatives responsible for this contract include Contracting Officer Cheryl Hodge-Snead and Senior Acquisition & Assistance Specialist Mary ChaoMwadime, who can be contacted for further inquiries. This contract aims to resume and complete rehabilitation efforts to restore and advance the biomass energy project essential for local energy needs.
