Terms of reference: Procurement of a data firm in Rwanda


Cenfri seeks to partner with a local data firm to implement data projects for both public and private programme partners. This collaboration will involve the firm in the day-to-day activities of the programme and provide an opportunity to enhance their skills and build relationships with programme partners. The Rwanda Economy Digitalisation (RED) programme, implemented by Cenfri in partnership with the Mastercard Foundation and the Ministry of ICT and Innovation, is a six-year initiative to support a sustained shift towards an inclusive, digitalised economy. A core objective of the programme is to strengthen Rwanda’s data ecosystem, where private data firms play a pivotal role. The selected data firm will engage in current programme projects by working alongside RED teams or, at times, handling discrete projects independently under Cenfri's oversight. Key responsibilities include:
  • Implementing or participating in the implementation of data analytics projects for RED programme partners.
  • Designing data use cases for partner institutions.
  • Implementing or participating in the implementation of data engineering projects for RED programme partners.
  • Conducting data quality assessments at partner institutions.
  • Implementing capacity-building initiatives and supporting private sector partner projects.
The firm must have a strong local presence. It must be Rwanda-based, owned by Rwandans and predominantly employ Rwandans. The closing date for proposal submissions is Friday, 17 January 2025. For more information, see the Terms of Reference (TOR).
