Description

WFD is issuing this Invitation to Tender ("ITT") to procure services in accordance with the conditions detailed in this document.

WFD established the Global Election Support Centre (GESC) to be able to provide the needed expertise and develop new integrated approaches to support and safeguard electoral integrity throughout the electoral cycle.

With the start of the GESC in January 2021 activities were concentrated on analytical, training and guideline support, to develop a better understanding of the electoral environment, stakeholders and pressure points on electoral integrity.

As part of its Global Election Support Centre work, our Phillippines project is currently looking for an organisation to undertake media and social media monitoring for a period of two months between January - March 2022 with a possibility of a two-month extension under the supervision of an international media/social media expert recruited by WFD.

For our project in the Philippines, we are currently looking for an organisation to undertake media and social media monitoring for a period of two months between January - March 2022 with a possibility of a two-month extension under the supervision of an international media/social media expert recruited by WFD.

Staffing requirements:

The organisation shall provide two teams of six media monitors each and one assistant to oversee the work of the monitoring teams. ToRs attached. The individuals named to work on the project need to work the equivalent of three full working days a week, dedicated to this project alone. Due to the time difference between Manila and London the monitors as well as the assistant need to be available on a regular basis for evening briefings after 17:00 Manila time.

Team 1

6 media monitors to monitor the traditional media environment (radio/print/TV outlets)

Team 2

6 media monitors to monitor social media channels (main social media sides/ online media), including primetime (evening) broadcasts.

Both teams need to be able to:

• Cover different languages common in the Philippines.
• Cover different regions in the country (accessibility of newspapers)

The Assistant will be the in-country lead of the teams working closely with and reporting to the international media/social media expert who will for the most part of the assignment work remotely. ToR attached.

Technical requirements:

The organisation will provide all necessary equipment to undertake media and social media monitoring. WFD will not procure equipment. The type and volume of the equipment for media monitoring depends on the system adopted to acquire the material for analysis.

The closing date for this ITT will be 24 December 2021. WFD intends to issue a contract for the above services, to be completed to WFD's satisfaction, by 15 January 2022.
