Closed

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GIZ) is a globally active company that supports the German Government in achieving its goals of international cooperation for sustainable development and has been implementing projects and programs in various thematic areas worldwide for many decades. This is done primarily on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), but also on behalf of other federal ministries or the European Commission. GIZ also works for international development agencies, financing institutions and governments of partner countries. At present, more than 24,000 employees are supporting around 2,000 projects in around 120 countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America and Europe from the head offices in Bonn and Eschborn and from more than 80 GIZ country offices in the partner countries. The Competence Centre Digital Societies (CC), located in the GIZ Sectoral Department (FMB), has the mandate of providing advisory services to GIZ projects on their use of digital technologies. One area of advisory services deals with data. The Data Service Center (DSC) is one out of six subteams within the CC that was created in 2022 and is headquartered in Eschborn in Germany. As an internal service provider, the DSC can be commissioned via the Portal for Internal Customers (PiK). The DSC supports GIZ projects across the globe in using data along the entire data life cycle - from data collection, data storage, data analysis to data visualization. With this, the DSC is providing centralized standard M&E data services and solutions instead of individual, isolated stand-alone products which would not contribute to the overall efficiency of projects. The specialists working at the DSC have expertise in artificial intelligence, geodata and monitoring and evaluation (M&E). For this specific tender, the DSC is searching for support in M&E. In the area of Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E), the DSC provides methodological and technical advisory services to support the design and implementation of digital monitoring systems in development cooperation projects. This includes advice on monitoring concepts, indicator frameworks, data requirements, and suitable digital toolsets, as well as roadmaps for integrating digital M&E into project planning and partner arrangements. The DSC focuses on the configuration of end-to-end monitoring solutions along the data lifecycle, including data integration from primary and secondary sources, data management, quality assurance, and reporting structures. Its role is primarily advisory and technical, with an emphasis on system design, standardization, and scalable solution setups rather than in-field implementation support. The DSC supports the analysis, visualization, and use of monitoring data for project steering, for example through interactive dashboards (e.g. Power BI), and advises on effective communication of results for management and partner dialogue.
