Request for Proposal For Consultancy To Develop A Mobile Application For The Agriculture Management Information System

Request for proposals for Consultancy to Develop a Mobile Application for the Agriculture Management Information System The agriculture management information system (AMIS) is set to be Agriculture sector specific DPI which translates into following the next DPI design principles in the architecture, implementation, deployment of several modules and components: Interoperability: AMIS will ensure seamless data and service exchange across government systems, private sector platforms, and farmer-facing applications. It will adopt open standards, semantic data models, and standardized APIs to enable integration without custom connectors. This guarantees that agricultural information can flow securely and consistently across the ecosystem. Minimalistic/Reusable building blocks: AMIS will be designed as a collection of modular, lightweight components that address specific functional needs such as farmer registration, subsidy management, or market information. Each module will be built for reuse across different programs and sectors, avoiding duplication of effort. This approach ensures scalability, cost-effectiveness, and flexibility for future expansion. Built for inclusiveness: AMIS will prioritize universal accessibility by supporting multiple access channels (web, mobile, USSD, offline) and local languages. It will be designed for low-literacy and low-connectivity environments, ensuring that marginalized groups, including smallholders and women farmers, are not left behind. Inclusiveness will be embedded at both the design and governance levels. Federated and decentralized: Instead of centralizing all data, AMIS will adopt a federated architecture where data remains with the systems of record (e.g., land registry, financial systems, cooperatives). Interoperability layers will enable secure exchange while maintaining autonomy and ownership for participating entities. This model reduces single points of failure and builds trust among stakeholders. Security & privacy: AMIS will follow security and privacy by design, embedding safeguards from the ground up. Sensitive agricultural and personal data will be protected through encryption, role-based access controls, data minimization, and consent management. Continuous monitoring and compliance with national data protection law will ensure AMIS remains a trusted platform.
