The contractor should also be aware of the overall strategy framework
of the SEGIR Results Package. Specifically, the results framework
lists the following intermediate results and the indicators by which
results may be measured:
Increased trade, investment and enhanced general business
environment. Indicator: Changes in levels of Foreign Direct
Investment (FDI) as a percentage of GDP.
Increasing application of legal, institutional and
regulatory reforms for competitive markets. Indicator:
Trade Openness within USAID-assisted countries as measured
by exports plus imports as a percent of GDP.
Increased economic stability and stabilization reforms.
Indicator: Government surplus/deficits as a percent of GDP,
inflation rates and foreign exchange reserves measured in
number of months of import coverage.
Increasingly liquid, transparent and rationalized financial
markets. Indicator: Capital market flows within USAIDassisted
countries as measured by DEPTH (M2/GDP).
Increased host country privatization efforts and competitive
market environments. Indicator: Subsidies paid by the
central government to state-owned nonfinancial enterprises
as a percent of central government spending.
While it may beyond the "manageable interests" of contractors to
produce results which can be directly attributed to these intermediate
results, the contractor's interventions may also be evaluated based on
the "plausible association" they may have with these intermediate
results.
