Cabinet of Lao Statistics Bureau

GENERAL PROCUREMENT NOTICE

Credit No. IDA 7238-LA & IDA 7239-LA

Project ID No. P178002

The MINISTRY OF PLANNING AND INVESTEMENT, Lao Statistics Bureau (LSB) has applied for IDA loans in the amount of US$ 21 million equivalent from the World Bank toward the cost of the Lao PDR Strengthening the National Statistical System Project, and it intends to apply part of the proceeds to payments for goods, works, non-consulting services and consulting services to be procured under this project.

The project includes the three main components:

Component 1: Improving availability and quality of statistics — The objective of this component is to improve the availability and quality of key statistics that meet international standards. Improving availability means adding new statistical products and increasing the frequency of existing statistics while enhancing quality means improving the accuracy, reliability, relevance, and timeliness of statistics. These will be achieved by an improvement in collection of administrative, census and survey data as well as data compilation methodologies. In particular, the project will finance: i) technical assistance to improve the compilation and survey methodologies; and ii) survey implementation including consultancy for survey design, software, enumerator trainings and compensation, transportation, technical assistance and capacity building for data analysis and reporting, and publications. This component will support statistics produced by Lao Statistics Bureau (LSB) and the statistical centers of line ministries or equivalent agencies under the LSB’s technical guidance in areas of national accounts, prices, agriculture, firm and labor market, poverty and welfare, gender, geospatial data, among others. It is made up of two subcomponents: i) Economic statistics; and ii) Social statistics.

Component 2: Enhancing use of statistics — The objective of this component is to enhance the use of statistics produced by the Lao PDR Statistical System (LSS) through data integration and dissemination. This component also lays the groundwork for the modernization of LSB and the LSS through piloting data integration and making an investment in an early development of the four pillars for a data governance and management architecture: i) standards and protocols; ii) data management team; iii) ICT infrastructure; and iv) data literacy. This component operationalizes the 2017 Statistics Law that assigns LSB the responsibility to provide quality assurance and technical endorsement to statistics produced by the LSS, as well as to collect, consolidate, and request statistics from the line ministries and to disseminate them at the national level. It is made up of three subcomponents: i) Data integration; ii) Data dissemination; and iii) ICT infrastructure.

Component 3: Strengthening institutional capacity and project management — The objectives of this component are to strengthen human resource and institutional capacity of the LSS, especially LSB in leading and coordinating the LSS toward modernization, and to support project implementation. It is made up of two subcomponents: i) Strengthening institutional capacity; and ii) Project management.
