Suitable businesses include small to medium enterprises (SMEs) and voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs) that have experience in international development and collaboration with multilateral organisations.

## Notice

Actual CPV code is '75211200 Foreign Economic-Aid Related Services'. The objective The objective of the assignment is to further refine and test the risk based methodology proposed during the testing phase 2014/153; to extend the methodology to more countries and programme intervention types, and to provide training and support to programme and/or country teams to implement the methodology and gather data on actual results. The intended outcome is a methodology and supporting tools for data management that can be applied by programme teams across the broad range of relevant ICF forest projects. In particular, this phase of work will work closely with programmes such as the Forest Governance, Markets and Climate Programme (FGMC)4 and with the ICF Monitoring Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Programme to determine how: (a) the methodology can be aligned with country priorities and resources, (b) can be adapted to programmes that are not implemented within discrete geographical areas or across geographical boundaries, (c) can deliver interim or proxy indicators of progress, (d) can address questions of contribution or attribution. The methods and the underpinning systems of data collection and management will be developed in a way that allows recipient countries, multilateral and NGO partners, and other international donors to adopt, replicate and develop these as part of collaborative MEL frameworks. DFID shall therefore also make efforts to share methods and underlying evidence with other international forest / REDD donors and multilaterals and interested forest nations.
