Design, Development and Implementation of Environmental Information System in Haiti

The United Nations Office at Nairobi (UNON) hereby requests interested firms to submit their Expression of Interest (EOI) to particioate in the upcoming competitive bidding exercise for the Provision of Design, Development and Implementation of Environmental Information System for a Project in Haiti.

Background:
The project “Developing Core Capacity for the Implementation of Multilateral Environmental Agreements (MEAs) in Haiti” is funded by the Global Environment Facility (GEF) under the CCCD (Creating Cross Capacity for Development) area and jointly executed by the Ministry of the Environment (MoE) of Haiti and the Country Office of the United Nations Environment Programme (UN Environment). This project is in line with Haiti’s commitments to global environmental management and action plans in response to Multilateral Agreements, in particular the Rio Conventions (Climate Change, Biodiversity, Desertification) to which the country is a signatory party.

Through the Environmental Information System (EIS), alphanumeric and geospatial environment information will be collected, validated processed and stored and eventually made available through an online platform to different users. The EIS will be instrumental to analyze and disseminate data and products, enabling better management of the environment and enhanced inter-sectoral coordination.

UNON is seeking a company or consortium to work on designing, developing and implementing an Environmental Information System for Haiti. The services require a vendor and/or its key personnel to have work experience in Haiti similar to the current requirement. A vendor may form a joint venture or sub-contract to meet experience specific to Haiti. The full detail of the experience requirement will be included in the tender document.
