Description

This request for proposal is to hire an agency for development of mobile application. Considering the project’s geographic spread and operational complexity—including Farmer Field Schools (FFS), GLMP roll-out, hydrology monitoring, eco-clubs, value chains, and village-level planning there is a strong need for a real-time mobile data-collection platform integrated with the MIS. The mobile app is intended to support standardized workflows, geo-tagged evidence, offline functionality, and improved monitoring and verification at village, GP, district, state, and national levels. The mobile application will also serve as a knowledge dissemination tool and grievance redressal platform to ensure transparency, community engagement, and strengthened project governance. The mobile application will therefore address the following key needs of the Project: • Real-Time and Decentralized Reporting: Direct entry of physical achievements from the field, reducing lag times and improving data freshness. • Data Quality and Verification: through GPS, photos, timestamps, and logic checks • Offline Functionality: for remote landscapes. • Unified workflows for: GLMP, FFS, Adoption, Eco-Clubs, GEBs, Value Chains, Financial (tracking and linkage for listed modules), hydrology safeguards, and grievance redressal in one integrated system. • Transparency and Accountability: Real-time dashboard and publicly accessible knowledge-sharing and grievance management. MIS Integration: Through secure APIs. Mandatory requirement listed in Table 1 are to be submitted by the service providers. The selection will be based on the evaluation criteria listed in table 2, 3, and 4.
