The past several years also saw many other donors and non-government organizations providing support to these Farmer Organizations. Often this support is not strategically harmonized nor coordinated to optimize effective impact of this assistance. To help streamline this strategic approach, a more cohesive and harmonized approach should be devised to target specific support to individual cooperative with precise needs. Accordingly, ASPIRE is embarking on an undertaking to map out FOs across the country, including ASPIRE supported Business Clusters and IGRFs. It is envisaged that the mapping of these farmer organizations will provide strategic information and details on the management and operations of these entities, including specific production/commodity data and capacity. This information will be beneficial to development partners, private sectors and public institutions to integrate into their development planning and interventions, business connections and relationship building and innovative extension technology support. Therefore, ASPIRE is calling for applications from interested consulting firms/teams to conduct this farmer organization mapping exercise.
A consulting firm/NGO will be selected in accordance with the Consultants Qualifications Selection (CQS) procedures and in a Simplified Technical Proposal (STP) format will be applied in evaluating the proposals as specified in procedures set out in the IFAD Procurement Handbook Version September 2010 and in consistency with the RGC Procurement Manual (PM) for Externally Financed Project in Cambodia Updated Version Dec 2019.
