Objectives of the Assignment

National digital ID systems can generate significant benefits, but only when implementation is closely monitored to track progress, measure impact, and identify gaps early. A strong M&E function ensures accountability and transparency, particularly important when handling sensitive personal data, and supports proactive risk mitigation, including issues related to system reliability, data protection, and exclusion of vulnerable groups. Ultimately, M&E enables informed, data-driven decision-making and guides the system’s evolution toward long-term success and sustainability.

• Establish an operational Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning MEL ecosystem within NIDP, including methods, tools, SOPs, indicators, dashboards, and performance monitoring mechanisms.

• Conduct periodic user experience research to understand service perceptions, adoption, barriers, awareness, and grievances.
• Evaluate the performance of outsourced service providers and monitor SLA compliance.
• Analyze and report on inclusion outcomes to identify underserved or excluded populations.
• Build institutional MEL capacity within NIDP through training, coaching, and knowledge transfer.
