Capacity Building & Technical Assistance tenders

About capacity building & technical assistance tenders

Capacity-building contracts place named advisers alongside a counterpart institution, so evaluation focuses on individual expertise, relevant country or regional experience and language ability — CVs frequently carry more weight than the corporate profile. Assignments may be long-term embedded placements or a series of short inputs, and the deliverable is a strengthened institution rather than a product, which makes the measurement approach an important part of the proposal. Read the terms carefully for who the adviser reports to, what decision-making authority they do and do not have, and whether counterpart staff time and facilities are provided; assignments fail more often on unclear counterpart commitment than on the quality of the technical input.
