PROJECT ID:

2100155044369 P-Z1-KZ0-066. GENERAL PROCUREMENT NOTICE 1. The African Union Development Agency–New Partnership for Africa’s Development (AUDA- NEPAD) has received financing from the African Development Fund through an ADF-16 Regional Public Goods grant of UA 2.54 million to finance the project “Catalysing Integrat ed Trade and

Industrial Policy Reform: Implementing the AfCFTA/AIDA Impact Assessments in Selected

African Economies in Transition.” AUDA-NEPAD intends to apply part of the proceeds to eligible payments for consulting and non-consulting services under the project.

2. The project’s objective is to support the next phase of the continental AfCFTA/AIDA Impact Assessment Programme through implementation in five selected African countries in transition: Cameroon, Chad, Comoros, Madagascar, and Togo. Rather than focusing solely on preparing impact assessment reports, the project seeks to institutionalize a sustainable evidence-generation and policy- implementation system within participating countries. It will strengthen national capacities to undertake regular assessments, improve the quality and use of p olicy-relevant data, reinforce coordination across trade, industry, planning, and finance institutions, and establish mechanisms for validating, implementing, and monitoring policy recommendations. Particular attention will be given to integrating MSMEs, i nformal trade, women, youth, climate resilience, and fragility considerations into trade and industrial policymaking. By embedding these processes within national institutions, the project will contribute to more coherent, inclusive, and adaptive implementation of AfCFTA and AIDA while strengthening the institutional foundations required for long -term structural transformation.

Component 1: Capacity Development and Technical Support for National Assessments.
