Framework for Call-down Technical Assistance - Engineering and Climate-Resilient Infrastructure Advisory Services (BRAVE-IS)

Che cosa richiede la stazione appaltante

DAI Global UK is seeking proposals from firms or consortia to provide engineering and climate-resilient infrastructure advisory services to the Building Resilience and Addressing Vulnerability to Emergencies - Institutional Strengthening (BRAVE-IS) programme in Pakistan. BRAVE-IS is a multi-year (2026-2029) technical assistance programme funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). Background Pakistan's infrastructure is highly exposed to floods, extreme heat, drought, landslides and earthquakes. Government has introduced climate and disaster risk requirements into public investment planning, but institutions need specialist engineering support to apply them in how infrastructure is planned, designed, appraised and maintained. Scope BRAVE-IS will appoint a firm or consortium under a Time and Materials call-down framework, from which it can mobilise engineering experts and, where needed, complete delivery teams. Work will be commissioned through individual task requests. Expertise is required in: climate-resilient infrastructure engineering and design; hydrology, hydraulics and flood-risk engineering; water resources, irrigation and drainage; infrastructure planning, appraisal and risk assessment; geospatial, digital and engineering software; and engineering institutional strengthening and capacity development. Support must strengthen, not substitute for, government capacity. Eligibility Applicants must be legally registered in Pakistan and hold valid Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) registration as a consulting engineering firm. Consortia of up to four members are welcome, led by a single lead member. Personnel will work in Islamabad, Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar and Gilgit, with travel elsewhere in Pakistan as required, and rates are sought for locally based personnel. Contract The initial period runs from date of award to 31 March 2027, extendable subject to programme requirements, performance and FCDO approval. Contracts will be issued by DAI Pakistan (Pvt.) Ltd. No minimum volume of work is guaranteed.
