Madagascar's Antananarivo, October 27, 20255
Colas Madagascar S.A. has been awarded an MGA 13,000,000,000 contract for embankment work on the southern bank of the Mahavavy Bridge (PK 568+720) along the National Road RN6 as part of the Connecting Madagascar for Inclusive Growth Project (P173711), marking a significant milestone in infrastructure development.
The award, which is funded by the International Development Association (IDA) under credit number IDA-D9820, highlights the government's dedication to enhancing economic resilience, regional trade, and national connectivity through strategic road construction and rehabilitation.
Summary of the Contract
The 90-day contract, designated 54-PCMCI-TX-REMBLAI RN6, was awarded on October 7, 2025, following a Request for Bids (RFB) procedure.
The agreement calls for Colas Madagascar S.A. to carry out stabilisation and embankment work on the southern approach to the Mahavavy Bridge, a vital piece of infrastructure in Madagascar's northern transportation corridor. The project's objectives are to improve year-round accessibility, guarantee road stability, and lessen flood-related damage in the nearby areas.
Procedure for Competitive Bidding
Premium Quarry, a Toamasina-based local company, entered the bidding process, but their proposal was later rejected for failing to meet eligibility requirements. Colas Madagascar S.A. emerged as the successful and compliant contractor with an evaluated and signed bid of MGA 13 billion.
Regarding the Winning Contractor
With its headquarters located in Anosibe, Colas Madagascar S.A. is a division of the multinational Colas Group, which is well-known for its proficiency in civil engineering, road construction, and infrastructure upkeep throughout Africa and beyond. With a significant operational presence in Madagascar, the company supports numerous national transport and infrastructure development initiatives.
Economic and Strategic Significance
The Connecting Madagascar for Inclusive Growth initiative, which aims to improve transport infrastructure, lessen regional isolation, and promote inclusive economic development, includes the Mahavavy Bridge embankment project.
The project is anticipated to improve access to markets and vital services for northern communities, support local economies, and enable more efficient transportation of goods by enhancing the RN6 route, a crucial trade and mobility artery.
Another concrete step in Madagascar's plan to encourage sustainable growth through enhanced connectivity and resilience is this short-term, high-impact infrastructure project.
