Request for Proposal For Technical Consultant - Digital Investment Case Tool For Womens Health

Request for proposals for Technical Consultant - Digital Investment Case Tool for Womens Health. Primary Objectives of the Consultancy The primary objective of this consultancy is to produce a fully functional, offline Excel-based investment case tool that enables MoH staff to independently construct and communicate evidence based economic arguments for investment in womens health. The consultant will design the tool as a generic, country-adaptive solution piloted in either Kenya or Egypt but built for replication and will support its validation, capacity-building application, and preparation for scale-up across MENA and Sub-Saharan Africa. Specific objectives include: Build and validate a six-module Excel tool aligned with AfDB financing formats, pre-populated with Kenya/Egypt data but adaptable to any LMIC context. Develop advocacy materials enabling MoH and Ministry of Finance (MoF) engagement, including an investment brief, PowerPoint deck, and country-specific economic narrative. Facilitate pilot testing and build the capacity of at least 15 Kenya/Egypt MoH staff to use the tool independently. Deliver an end-of-pilot evaluation and a structured scale-up roadmap for multi-country roll-out. Scope of Work The consultants responsibilities span five areas over the six-month engagement: Tool Design & Development Build a fully functional offline Excel investment case tool explicitly designed as a generic, country-adaptive solution replicable across any LMIC context. Include six modules: investment calculator, global SRHR evidence library, generic country data input sheet (pre-populated with Kenya/Egypt data), customizable dashboards, scenario modelling (invest vs. inaction), and a plain-language guidance note. Ensure all assumptions are transparent and adjustable; outputs must align with AfDB financing formats. Advocacy Materials Develop a fillable one-page investment brief template and a 1015 slide MoF-ready PowerPoint deck. Produce a Kenya/Egypt-specific economic narrative applying tool outputs to Kenyas/Egypts UHC context, serving as the pilot application of a reusable country narrative template. Produce a standalone invest vs. do nothing scenario analysis template with annotated guidance and placeholder sections, and complete the Kenya/Egypt version as proof of concept. Pilot Testing & Capacity Building Facilitate at least one full-day hybrid workshop with Kenya or Egypt MoH staff (co-facilitated with Pathfinder staff); produce a usability and feedback report; revise the tool accordingly (v2). Design and deliver at least two training sessions for a minimum of 15 MoH staff, equipping them to use the tool independently. Prior to the first workshop (Month 1/2), contribute to a structured baseline capacity assessment of MoH counterparts to support pre-/post- measurement of changes in tool use and decisionmaker engagement. Stakeholder Engagement Support Brief MoH staff for at least two MoF-level presentations; attend at least one engagement session; produce meeting summaries. Evaluation & Scale-Up Roadmap Conduct an end-of-pilot evaluation; produce a structured 2-page scale-up framework covering country adaptation requirements, resource needs, rollout criteria, and funding pathways. Produce a final report contribution and submit a complete documentation package. Level of Effort and Deliverables Allocation The consultancy will require approximately 20 working days, distributed over a six-month, output-based engagement. Consultants are expected to allocate the level of effort across the main deliverables as follows: Deliverable Area/Expected Level of Effort Tool development, including technical specification, Excel tool architecture, investment calculator, assumptions logic, country data input structure, scenario modelling, dashboards, and user guidance - 10 days Workshop preparation, validation session, user feedback review, and revisions to the tool - 6 days Reporting, documentation package, final handover note, and submission of final revised tool - 4 days Closing Date: 31 Jul 2026 Type: Consultancy Tender Link : https://reliefweb.int/job/4222043/technical-consultant-digital-investment-case-tool-womens-health
