Expression of Interest For Consulting Services For Msme Champions Market Study And Program Design

Expression of Interest for Consulting Services for MSME Champions Market Study and Program Design This TOR concerns the design and delivery of the MSME Champions program across priority manufacturing sectors and select geographies, in close coordination with SIDBI. Recognising that the barriers MSMEs face are multi-dimensional spanning access to markets, access to finance, access to capacity, and integration into global value chains, IFC seeks to commission a rigorous, evidence-based market study to understand the current state and future trajectory of MSME Champions across six priority manufacturing sectors. This study will generate actionable intelligence to inform the product design, financial instruments, technical assistance programmes, and policy advocacy for the MSME sector and ultimately to catalyse a new generation of Indian manufacturing champions that are export-competitive, ESG-compliant, digitally enabled, and globally integrated. The firm will conduct a comprehensive market study focused on identified sectors - to understand domestic and export demand, quality standards, regulatory requirements, and competitive dynamics across the 6 priority sectors; and will include secondary and primary data study (~600 MSMEs). The assignment aims to identify, screen, and strengthen high-potential manufacturing MSME Champions across 6 sectors and select geographies. Based on the study and findings, the goal is design a program, to increase their turnover, improve market access (domestic and export), enhance adherence to ESG and quality standards, and measure the impact of the support program.
