Details

The International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD), a specialized agency of the United Nations based in Rome, Italy, hereby solicits proposals for a reputable and competent Service Provider (SP) to support the implementation of rainwater harvesting activities under the Gender Transformative Mechanism in Climate Adaptation (GTM) in Madagascar. The assignment aims to contribute to climate resilience and women’s empowerment by improving household access to water and reducing the time and physical burden associated with water collection, particularly for rural women, through the establishment of sustainable rainwater harvesting systems for 400 vulnerable households in the districts of Tuléar II (Atsimo-Andrefana Region) and Ihosy (Ihorombe Region).

The selected Service Provider is expected to work closely with beneficiary communities, the PROGRES PMU, the IFAD Country Office (ICO), the GTM team and local authorities, technical service providers, and other relevant stakeholders.

The estimated duration of the assignment is nine (9) months, with the Final Technical Report due in Month 9. Implementation is planned to start in November 2026.

Before you bid on this tender

A quick checklist to help you decide whether to bid and prepare a compliant submission. 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.
