- Career Category: Expression of Interest
- Location: N/A
Client: iDE Cambodia CSmart Project
Location: in CSmart Northwestern provinces, major cities, and selected vegetable hotspot zones
Timeline: 2022 Q3-4
Budget: USD 75,000 maximum (for both studies)
Deliverables
Before the studies begin, the service provider would:
- Participate in a kick-off meeting with iDE and submit an inception report that includes planned activities, timeline, qualitative and quantitative research methodologies and draft outline of the final report selected for this research.
- Provide draft questionnaires to iDE for feedback prior to field testing.
- Provide final questionnaires to iDE for feedback prior to use with interviewees.
After research - and before production of final deliverables - the service provider will:
- Meet with iDE and present findings from the research for discussion.
- Agree with iDE on the outline of final deliverables (if it has changed from #1 above).
Final deliverables include:
- A white paper on study findings that the CSmart team can share with relevant stakeholders such as development partners, the Government, and interested private companies. This should be a concise report: an executive summary, 10-15 pages of content, and hyperlinks to a digital annex.
- A slide deck that the CSmart team can use to share findings with relevant stakeholders (15-20 slides maximum).
- All original data collected during this assignment (e.g., survey results, interview notes).
Budget
The approximate budget for both studies is USD $75,000 maximum. Applicants interested in only one study would have access to roughly half this amount. The exact budget for one or both studies is negotiable based on a combination of technical proposal, financial proposal, and available budget.
Although budget will not be the sole decision-making factor, value for money will be considered as part of the application process.
