Feed the Future Livelihoods for Resilience - Oromia is a five-year USAID funded activity started February 01, 2017. The activity aims to contribute for improvement of PSNP households’ economic well-being, through on-farm, off-farm and employment strategies.

Catholic Relief Services (CRS), in consortium with the Ethiopian Catholic Church Social & Development Commission of Meki (commonly referred to as MCS) implements the activity in nine woredas across three zones in Oromia region: namely, Zeway Dugda, Arsi Negele, Heben Arsi, Shala, Adami Tulu Jido Kombolcha, Dodota, Sire, Siraro, and Boset. The activity targeted to assist 24,500 PSNP households with a goal to successfully graduate 18,375 PSNP households.

With the aim of assessing progress of the activity and to suggest future directions to better achieve activity’s objectives, CRS has planned to conduct an internal Midterm Evaluation (MTE). The evaluation will mainly employ qualitative methods such as Focus Group Discussions (FGDs), Key Informant Interviews (KIIs) and site and activity observations to collect information from beneficiaries and key stakeholders. The evaluation will also review routine monitoring data, partner and donor reports and other project documents.

Objectives of this evaluation are:

The MTE will review quality of implementation of the activity in producing planned outputs and outcomes, to assess the intended and unintended effects of these outputs, and to examine the progress to formulate recommendations to be implemented in the remaining life of the activity.

Specific objectives;

  1. To assess relevance of strategies and interventions in addressing the needs of targeted groups
  2. To evaluate the quality and effectiveness of service delivery, the strengths and weaknesses of activity implementation and management, and the technical quality of activity inputs and outputs in terms of adherence to terms agreed to by USAID and of their acceptability and perceived value to target communities, identifying factors that appear to enhance to detract from the quality, acceptability and usefulness of implementation and outputs.
  3. To present evidence of changes (intended and unintended, positive and negative) associated with activity interventions, assess how well the observed changes reflect the RF
  4. To recommend adjustments to RF, activity design, resource allocation, activity implementation and management, and M&E Plan that could improve the likelihood of achieving desired results by the activity’s end, based on the evidence collected and conclusions drawn for the evaluation
  5. Determine the extent to which outcomes, systems, and services are designed and being implemented to continue after the project ends and assess progress made on implementing sustainability strategies.

Organization: Fred Hollows Foundation
Country: Ethiopia
Closing date: 28 Dec 2018

Introduction

The Fred Hollows Foundation (FHF) is a non-profit aid organization Head Quartered in Australia and founded in 1992 by eye surgeon Fred Hollows. Working in 22 countries, FHF’s vision is for a world where no one is needlessly blind.

Background

FHF started its work in Ethiopia initially supporting three zones in the Oromia region and had, by the end of 2016, scaled up its support to 18 out of 20 zones in the region. This accelerated scale up came with significant build-up of FHF’s work-force from around 20 employees to more than 80 employees based in its country office in Addis Ababa and decentralised cluster offices in 5 zones straddling the fields of programme and grant management, financial management, human resources management, administration and procurement management, technical advisory support and Research.

Demonstrably, Trachoma programme targets and often-varying short-term project transition timelines have largely driven FHF’s growth curve in Ethiopia as opposed to the Foundation’s vision, strategy and programme implementation modalities. In addition, impending completion of various projects and transition of the Trachoma control programmes from a direct programme implementation format towards the routine health care system indicates the need to review FHF’s structures, systems, functions, roles and responsibilities.

The purpose of the organisational assessment is to assess the FHF Ethiopia Organisation in line with FHF’s global vision, mission, values, strategy, policies and processes; transition of Trachoma control to the routine eye health system and potential for greater strategic contribution by FHF to the eye health system in Ethiopia in a sustainable and cost-effective manner.

The Consultant team should be multi-cultural with extensive knowledge of both the international INGO context and the local Ethiopian organisational and health system context;

  • The lead consultant should have extensive experience (at least 10 years) in conducting Organizational Assessments with evidence of similar assignments undertaken in similar settings; an advanced University degree in strategic management, organizational development or business administration;
  • Experience working in NGO context.
  • Knowledge of Grants Management for large scale projects involving donors such as USAID, DFID, EU, DFAT, etc.
  • There should be accompanying local consultant(s) with in-depth knowledge of the Ethiopia social-cultural, economic and political context and fluency in local languages;
  • The Consulting team should have expertise on health systems strengthening and working with government health systems preferably in an Ethiopian context;
  • The Consultants will have proven analytical, research, evaluation and data analysis and synthesis skills and an excellent track record in conducting organisational assessments (at least 10 years of experience);

    And we never give up.

    For every child, Health

    Purpose of the Job:

    To review the current landscape of PSCM systems and support in Ethiopia, including at the regional level in selected locations, to determine UNICEF’s areas of comparative advantage, and to develop a medium to long-term plan/roadmap for UNICEF support to PSCM system strengthening going forward.

    How can you make a difference?

    Under the supervision of the HSS Team, and working closely with Supply Unit staff and logistics, health and nutrition colleagues and regional staff the consultant will:

  • Conduct a landscape analysis of PSCM system strengthening in Ethiopia, including at regional level in selected locations. This will involve a desk review of key documents, undertaking key informant interviews with key staff working in this area from government, UNICEF, DPs, and regions, and a site visit(s) to better understand PSCM system strengthening issues at the regional and decentralized level. (13 days)
  • Present preliminary findings of the landscape analysis to the UNICEF team. (1 day)
  • Produce a draft landscape analysis report. (6 days)

  • Finalize the plan/roadmap based on feedback received. (2 days)
  • Specific issues to consider and address during the landscape analysis and roadmap development include the following:

  • How to increase the effectiveness of UNICEF’s capacity building and TA for PSCM? This could potentially include:

  • Shifting the focus of embedded staff TA from gap filling to system strengthening through developing jointly agreed and monitored TOR/MoU for each position with clear, time-limited milestones for capacity development and graduation, and
  • Engaging in larger-scale reform of the PFSA and/or civil service reform to address human resource and sustainable financing issues;
  • How to sustainably increase PFSA’s capacity for large-scale procurement including equipment and supplies? Does UNICEF have comparative advantage in providing support to this area?
  • How to sustainably increase PFSA’s capacity to develop/manage and monitor contracts with the private sector, particularly related to the cold chain, child health and nutrition supplies? Does UNICEF have comparative advantage in providing support to this area?
  • How to sustainably increase the government’s capacity to finance and to develop sustainable financing plans, particularly related to vaccines, and/or child health and nutrition commodities? Does UNICEF have comparative advantage in providing support to this area?
  • How can UNICEF better structure itself for results driven system strengthening of PSCM?
  • Deliverables
