Request for Proposals (RFP) – GIS and Remote Sensing Analysis

POA, the implementer of the USDA FFPr Mauritania project, invites qualified offerors to submit proposals to supply and deliver a Mauritanian Horticulture Sector GIS and Remote Sensing Analysis in support of program implementation. The Mauritanian horticulture sector is underdeveloped and there is a lack of data on production rates, potential, and sustainability. USDA FFPr Mauritania aims to improve horticulture production in the Senegal River Valley regions of Trarza, Brakna, Gorgol, Assaba and Guidimakha. One way this will be accomplished is by using innovative GIS and remote sensing technologies. USDA FFPr Mauritania will implement the Analysis to acquire maps and data on horticulture production, as well as concrete steps on how to increase productivity. The intent of RFP is to award one contract of up to $300,000 USD to a selected proposal, pending the final evaluation process.
