Recruitment of a National Consultancy Firm for the Development of the Rwanda Private Sector Master Plan (PSMP) 2026–2056   Client: Private Sector Federation of Rwanda (PSF) Assignment Duration: 6 months. Planning Horizon: 30 years (2025–2060) Implementation Modality: Rolling 5-Year Implementation Plans Growth Ambition: Sustained double-digit (≥10%) annual GDP growth Procurement Method: Request for Proposal (RFP). Applicable Standards: UNDP Rules for Use of Consultants.                        1.     Background and ContextThe Private Sector Federation of Rwanda (PSF), now 25 years old, has been a critical driver of Rwanda’s economic development, contributing to growth, employment, investment, and innovation. As Rwanda advances toward Vision 2050, the country has adopted a clear policy direction toward a private sector–led economy as the main engine of wealth creation, job generation, and competitiveness.   Vision 2050 aims to transform Rwanda into an upper-middle-income country by 2035 and a high-income (wealthy) country by 2050 and beyond, implemented through successive National Strategy for Transformation (NST) cycles. Despite strong private sector participation, Rwanda has never developed a long-term, integrated Private Sector Master Plan that clearly defines the structure, priorities, investment pathways, and institutional arrangements for a private sector– led economy.   In a rapidly evolving global economy, characterized by digitalization, green transition, changing trade patterns, and regional integration, Rwanda must redesign and reposition its private sector to: ·       Drive sustained high growth ·       Create quality jobs and wealth for citizens ·       Expand domestic production and value addition ·       Export competitively to the region, continent, and global markets ·       Become a regional trade, logistics, and investment hub To consolidate these reforms and provide long-term strategic direction, PSF, with support of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), seeks to develop a Long-Term Master Plan (2026–2056). The Master Plan will serve as the overarching strategic framework guiding private sector development and PSF’s institutional evolution over the next three decades and will provide the foundation for successive five-year strategic plans, beginning with the 2026– 2030 Strategic Plan.   The assignment will therefore be implemented in a context of institutional transition, high stakeholder expectations, and strong national development ambitions, requiring a forward- looking, benchmark-driven, and participatory approach. PSF therefore seeks to commission the development of Rwanda’s first Private Sector Master Plan (PSMP 2026–2056) as the central national blueprint for private sector–led economic transformation.    2.     Purpose of the Assignment The purpose of this assignment is to develop a transformational, evidence-based, and implementable Private Sector Master Plan that redesigns Rwanda’s private sector, gives it clear structure and strategic direction, and positions it as the primary engine of economic growth, job creation, and wealth generation, aligned with Vision 2050, NST timelines, and global best practices.   3.     Objectives of the Assignment 3.1  General Objective To design a 30-year Private Sector Master Plan (2026–2056) that enables Rwanda to achieve sustained double-digit growth and transition to a modern, competitive, private sector–led high- income economy.Please indicate whether you intend to submit a bid by creating a draft response without submitting directly in the system.
