This consultancy covers a range of services that are required to support MCC in Compact Development and potentially, Compact implementation. MCC requires a consultant to provide expert skills to MCC for the development and due diligence of an industrial land component as part of Morocco's anticipated proposal of a land project as part of the second MCC Compact. The consultant shall serve as a technical advisor to MCC providing project/activity assessment and design advice and due diligence on aspects of the GOM's emerging proposal for the land sector. The consultant will not be serving as a technical advisor to the GOM.

An industrial land component of the second Compact is expected to include technical assistance and pilot-testing to help Morocco develop and mainstream improved approaches to mobilizing, developing, and allocating industrial land. This is expected to strengthen the productivity of industrial land and the performance of the industrial share of Morocco's economy.
Topics to be targeted in an eventual project include: legal and regulatory texts governing industrial land development; tax incentives and subsidy mechanisms related to industrial land development, ownership, and use; different tenure regimes for industrial land (sales, leasing, etc); roles, responsibilities and performance of State institutions related to allocation, mobilization, or management of industrial land; the enabling environment for private investors and private real estate developers to participate in the mobilization and development of industrial land; and mechanisms for understanding and projecting demand for industrial land by different types of firms; mechanisms for management of industrial land areas and financing and management of shared services; and assessment of viability of existing zones and identification of mechanisms to revitalize or convert to other uses.
