Context

Through its “Forward” initiative, USAID views local stakeholder capacity building as an essential tool to achieve more effective and sustainable development results. USAID awarded the Konbit project to establish a “capacity building hub” to coordinate local capacity development service provision, create a network of development innovations, and manage monitoring, evaluation and learning activities. Konbit’s objective is to increase the number of local development partners who influence and achieve significant sustainable development results in Haiti, are accountable to their constituents and are able to compete for and manage resources.
Konbit is managed by Papyrus S.A. and its local partner Ayiti Nexus. The project is supported by two international partners: Steve Kroll and Associates and Tetra Tech, and will work with partnering service providers to:
- Build the competencies of local capacity development service providers and develop the competencies of institutions;
- Mobilize networking events to foster collaboration and sharing of good practices, innovations and industry standards in the capacity development and technical sectors.
- Measure the project’s progress and results, use its monitoring and evaluation process and results to create learning opportunities for program participants, and use its interactive platform to share lessons learned.
Papyrus will work with USAID to expand upon its mapping process to inventory the broader category of local development organizations, and more specifically to identify both experienced and prospective organizational capacity development service providers, including those that are either headed by women or work specifically on gender issues.

Task Description

Konbit seeks to establish a contract with a firm to update its existing organizational database and continue with the exercise of mapping local organizations and NGOs.

As part of its activities related to the Development Innovation Network (DIN) component of the project, Konbit is in the process of launching a virtual platform to provide access to markets, networks and information.

Using a proposed mobile application, the firm will use the gathered information to assist mapped organizations—in the North, Saint Marc and Port-au-Prince— to register on the Konbit’s virtual DIN platform.
Bidding firms will work in close collaboration with Konbit staff to:

• Develop the data collection strategy;
• Review and validate Konbit’s existing questionnaire (virtual platform profile form);
• Collect data directly by assisting identified organizations to create profiles on the platform (including organizations already identified on Konbit’s mapping database)

Qualifications and experience
The firm must:

• Be legally registered in Haiti
• Have relevant professional experience, with documented survey/studies past performance at a national level
• Possess the ability to manage data and provide analysis using Excel, SPSS or similar software
• Proven ability to assess and analyze information from various sources
• Have excellent skills in producing succinct, clear materials in English
• Be well-organized with ability to adequately manage time and meet deadlines
• Have fluency in French and Creole and English
