Request for proposals for Consultancy Services for the Design and Implementation of a Nationwide SME Database in Papua New Guinea Consultancy Services for the Design and Implementation of a Nationwide SME Database in Papua New Guinea Project Background and Objectives Papua New Guinea (PNG) is among the countries most vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, facing increasing risks to its people, ecosystems, and economy. In response to these challenges, PNG has made significant commitments under the Paris Agreement, including the submission of its Enhanced Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) and development of its National Adaptation Plan (NAP), outlining ambitious targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and enhance climate resilience across sectors. To support these national climate priorities, the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI), with funding from the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), is implementing the Climate Finance Initiative for Resilience and a Sustainable Transition (Climate FIRST). Developed by GGGI, Climate FIRST is a catalytic bilateral initiative under the PNGAustralia Climate Change Action Plan (PACCAP). The program is designed to assist PNG in accessing and coordinating climate finance and strengthening institutional systems to deliver a high-quality pipeline of climate change adaptation and mitigation investments aligned with national plans and priorities. GGGI serves as the delivery partner for the initiative and implements it in close collaboration with the Climate Change and Development Authority (CCDA). Climate FIRST forms part of the broader strategic partnership between the Government of Papua New Guinea and the Government of Australia to enhance climate resilience, support inclusive low-emission development, and improve climate finance governance. The program aligns closely with PNGs Medium-Term Development Plan, Climate Compatible Development Strategy, and the NDCs. DFATs support reflects Australias commitment to fostering effective, transparent, and coordinated climate action across the Pacific. The Small and Medium Enterprise Corporation (SMEC) and the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) have entered into a strategic partnership through a signed Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). This collaboration aims to strengthen national, sub-national, and local green growth planning, financing, and institutional frameworks. As part of this partnership, SMEC has identified the urgent need for a centralized SME database. Currently, information on small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Papua New Guinea is fragmented and outdated, making it difficult for policymakers, financial institutions, and development partners to design evidence-based policies, enhance access to finance, and improve coordination among stakeholders. GGGI, upon request from SMEC, will provide technical support to ensure the development and sustainability of this database. The proposed SME database will serve as the central platform for systematically capturing, organizing, and maintaining SME information across the country.
