The overall objective of this assignment is to support the Government of the Commonwealth of Dominica in completing and strengthening the gender-responsive legal, regulatory, governance, fiduciary, and investment-enabling arrangements required for the effective operation and investment readiness of the SWR and the SWRF established under the SWRA. The assignment will assess the adequacy of the enacted legislation and prepare any amendments and subsidiary instruments required for full operationalisation. It will also strengthen the enabling framework needed to position the Reserve as a financially viable, investment-ready marine conservation asset capable of supporting sustainable financing mechanisms and long-term partnerships.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission for this financial & professional services opportunity. Always verify the details on the official source.

  • Confirm the exact closing date and time (and time zone) on the official portal — deadlines are strict and can be revised by a corrigendum.
  • Read the full notice and every attached document, including the scope, specifications and any bill of quantities or terms of reference.
  • Check the eligibility criteria — prior similar experience, annual turnover, certifications and registrations — and make sure you qualify before investing effort.
  • Prepare any earnest-money deposit (EMD) or bid security and the required formats early; missing or wrongly-formatted documents are a common cause of rejection.
  • Note how bids must be submitted (online or physical), in what format, and whether a digital signature or portal registration is required.
  • Watch for corrigenda and clarifications right up to the deadline — requirements and dates can change.
