Sindh Capacity Development Project

Awarded on August 6, 2015, to Deloitte (Yousuf Adil, Chartered Accountants), the Sindh Capacity Development Project (SCDP) is a three-year initiative funded by USAID/Pakistan under solicitation SOL-391-15-000006. The contract, valued at 4,404,054 dollars, was procured through the Local Competition Authority Pilot Program after a competitive bidding process involving twelve proposals. As a sub-component of the broader Sindh Basic Education Program (SBEP), the project is designed to improve education systems, governance, and management within the Government of Sindh. The primary objective of the project is to enhance the capacity of the Program Management and Implementation Unit (PMIU) to increase efficiency in program delivery. Recognizing the temporary nature of the PMIU, the contractor is also tasked with strengthening the systems of government institutions at both the provincial and district levels. This effort aligns with the larger SBEP framework, which operates with an increased funding level of 155 million dollars and focuses on specific geographic areas within Sindh and selected towns in Karachi to improve overall educational infrastructure and administration.
