The Department for International Development has gone out to tender for a service provider to undertake independent data verification of the Payment by Results (PbR) Scheme in the water sector in Tanzania.
The contract, which will run for four years , is worth up to £1 million.
DFID is providing support to the second phase of the Water Sector Development Program from June 2014 — March 2019. In line with the Government of Tanzania ‘s (GoT) Big Results Now Initiative (BRN), DFID and GoT have agreed to implement a Payment by Result scheme as part of support to rural water supply and sanitation.
The aim of the PbR scheme is to provide additional incentives to Local Government Authorities in Tanzania to accelerate progress towards more effective delivery of results and incentivise a focus on maintenance of rural water supply infrastructures. As part of the implementation of PbR scheme, robust independent verification of results is required as the process is the trigger for payments to be made within the scheme.
DFID will undertake independent verification of the results reported prior to issuing payment under the PbR scheme. DFID Tanzania now wishes to commission data verification to undertake an annual independent verification of results for the Payment by Results (PbR) scheme in the water sector. The scope of the work is focused on annual verification of reported results. The Local Government Authorities (LGAs) will report the number of functional water points in their area at the end of June each year (2015-17).
The data will be available for the independent verification exercise by end September each year with the independent verification exercise itself completed by December each year.
Time limit for receipt of tenders or requests to participate is 25 November.
