GENERAL PROCUREMENT NOTICE (GPN) Country:          SOMALIA Name of Project: RECURRENT COST AND REFORM FINANCING PROJECT – PHASE 3 Grant No.: IDA-D6580 Project ID No.: P173731 Date of Notice: June 2021   The Federal Government of Somalia (FGS) has received financing in the amount of US$ 71.8 million equivalent from the World Bank toward the cost of the Somalia Recurrent Cost and Reform Financing Project – Phase 3, and it intends to apply part of the proceeds to payments for goods, non-consulting services and consulting services to be procured under this project. This project completion is scheduled for 31st December 2023. The project includes the following components: Component 1: Recurrent cost finance to reform resource management systems. Component 1 has two sub-components, the first of which supports the financing of eligible civil service salaries in FGS, which provides a decreasing ‘baseline’ level of input-based financing of the FGS civil service wage bill. The second sub-component makes available additional financing for reimbursement of eligible expenditures upon meeting performance-based conditions (PBCs). In this case, PBCs are FGS reform benchmarks that are based upon a clear problem definition and a feasible reform trajectory over the medium-term (i.e. 2019- 2023). They build on an already established client dialogue around RCRF 2 reform benchmarks which have been developed for 2019 – 2021 and extend this approach into 2022 and 2023 with a streamlining of focus. Component 2: Strengthen inter-governmental fiscal relations Component 2 comprises three sub-components as follows: Sub-Component 2.1- Supporting inter-governmental Fiscal Forums and Secretariat. This sub-component builds on the successful establishment of the Inter-Governmental Fiscal Forum (IGFF), and dedicated Secretariat, which needs to be institutionalized to sustain the gains. The IGFF comprises two bodies, supported by the Secretariat, namely: (i) IGFFTM, which operates at the technical level; and (ii) the Finance Ministers Fiscal Forum (FMFF) for the political-level deliberation and decision-making. Sub-component 2.2 includes reform benchmarks for improved governance and service delivery at Federal Member State (FMS) level. Strengthening resource management systems to support PFM and service delivery is subcomponent 2.3. Component 3: Transfer for core government functions and foundational education and health service delivery mechanisms in eligible Federal Member States (FMS). Component 3 is comprised of three sub-components. Sub-component 3.1 is financing of core government functions, in particular eligible FMS recurrent costs. Sub-component 3.2 is the financing education service delivery to help FGS and FMS education ministries strengthen their core systems for the delivery and management of education services. Sub-Component 3.3 is the financing of health service delivery for scaling up the ‘Marwo Caafimaad’ (Female Health Worker) program and strengthening the government’s stewardship and management capacities. The services of a Health Technical Partner procured under RCRF Project Phase 2 will be used. Component 4: Citizen Engagement and Feedback Component 4 has three sub-components. The first is sub-component 4.1 which intends to deepen and widen existing budget transparency efforts. Sub-component 4.2 supports mapping, citizen feedback and corrective measures at the local level. More specifically, it will promote citizen participation in service delivery at community level by building on already significant attendance to community meetings across eligible provinces by promoting inclusive and deeper community engagement in service delivery. Sub-Component 4.3 is an impact evaluation to citizen feedback in education and health. This sub-component will strive to incorporate citizen feedback into the provision of education and/or health services particularly the staff supported by the project and evaluate the possible impact of the interventions on health and education access and quality. Consultancies will be required for the following citizen engagement activities: Policy Dialogue; Mass Media Campaign; Call Centre Services; and Community Mobilization.   Component 5: Project Management This component will be used to support the Project Implementation and Coordination that is currently implementing the RCRF Project Phase II. The PI&CU will continue to provide the fiduciary, safeguards, and Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) expertise required for implementation of the project in accordance with Bank policies and requirements. This component will include equipment, operating costs, organization and systems development, training, capacity building and technical assistance.
