French RFP: WI WEECAP 2026

Background

As part of the implementation of the WEECAP Program, Winrock International monitors indicators related to program participants as well as the performance of participating partner enterprises through the program’s implementing partners and an external partner dedicated exclusively to planned annual data collection and ad hoc data collection upon request.

Certain activities are not implemented directly by partners and therefore require the support of an external partner to assist the MEL team in collecting routine data related to these activities. In addition, on an annual basis, the monitoring and evaluation system plans data collection across all participating enterprises, as well as among a sample of program participants.

It is for this purpose that the WEECAP Program is seeking applications from qualified firms specializing in data collection and possessing a strong database of field data collectors.
