MANDATE OF THE CONSULTANT The purpose of the consultation is: the recruitment of a consulting firm or group (the service provider) for the development of studies at the APS stage, APD-DCE of a CET, a sorting-transfer center and a composting unit for the city of Niamey, including operational sizing. This study should provide financial elements such as CAPEX and OPEX global and detailed for each of the activities. The studies should lead to a future consultation such as BOT (Build Operate Transfer) or DBO (Design Built Operate). The funding will cover the initial work phases, equipment and fittings necessary for the CET (e.g. new cell) always in the spirit of reducing the operator's CAPEX. Arbitrations will be made with the beneficiary (the city of Niamey), at the end of the APS according to the simulations produced. A transition period will therefore be necessary between the APS and ODA phases in order to validate the financing and operational orientations selected: management, partial or total delegation, to the private sector under DBO (Design Build Operate) or BOT (Build Operate Transfer) type contracts. A service order will launch the APD-WFD Phase. A business prequalification file (AMI) will be produced after validation of the APD-DCE. 5.
