Description
UNICEF has now issued a Request for Proposals in order to select a supplier for the provision of Service Provider for Delivering Third-Party Technical Facilitator (TPTF) Services on behalf of UNICEF. UNICEF Ukraine is looking for a company to support UNICEF’s response in Ukraine by recruiting and administering staff to provide technical assistance and advisory work to the local authorities in areas not easily accessible by UNICEF staff including areas that require approvals. The service provider of the Third-Party Technical Facilitators (TPTFs) contract will be responsible for the recruitment and administrative management of TPTFs working across a range of technical areas. UNICEF will be responsible for providing day-to-day supervision, tasking and technical guidance to the TPTFs. Their daily work will be supervised through the four UNICEF Field Offices and Kyiv central office (for field work within their area of responsibility). According to their Terms of Reference, the TPTFs will provide technical assistance, as well as situation, programme and post-distribution monitoring. It is expected that TPTFs will be recruited locally, where possible, to ensure they have a thorough knowledge of the area in which they will operate. Pre-bid conference will be held online on May 11, 2023 [1:00 PM, Kyiv time].
