The Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD) is establishing the Technical Assistance Partnership - Expert Deployment Mechanism (TAP-EDM) to facilitate the provision of strategic, short-term Canadian technical assistance in response to the expressed needs of national entities in Official Development Assistance (ODA)-eligible countries. TAP-EDM’s technical assistance toolkit will address needs in areas aligned with the Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP), and do so in a manner consistent with aid effectiveness principles and the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development. TAP-EDM will also contribute to promoting Canadian values, increasing Canada’s visibility, and projecting Canadian leadership globally, while advancing Canada’s international assistance policy, foreign policy, and trade relation interests.
DFATD is seeking a Canadian supplier with proven organizational experience and capacity to undertake the role of Contractor to mobilize Canadian professional resources, and administer systems required to manage the Project’s $12 million Responsive Technical Assistance Fund, and to plan, coordinate, execute and monitor approximately thirty to thirty-five (30-35) technical assistance initiatives per year for four years. The entity will arrange for the deployment of Canadian experts to partner countries to respond to partner country requests, including developing project plans, recruiting and managing required experts; arranging technical visits to Canada in a broad variety of domains; and producing and disseminating reports to share the results of its deployment activities.
The project is expected to be executed over the course of a four-year period from the date of signing of the contract.
