The Government of the Republic of Zambia (GRZ) has applied for financing from the International Development Association of the World Bank to accelerate country-wide digital transformation. The “Digital Zambia Acceleration Project” (henceforth referred to as the ‘the project’) will drive digital transformation throughout the country by enhancing access to technology and improving service delivery. The project will address key barriers that hinder demand for digital services, such as inadequate digital infrastructure, low digital literacy rates, access to digital devices and affordability issues. The project in addition, will enable Zambia to leverage critical enabling digital platforms and data-driven solutions to improve the efficiency of public service delivery and expand the adoption of digitally enabled services.

The Project will be coordinated through the Electronic Government Division (EGD) – Smart Zambia Institute (SZI). A dedicated Project Implementation Unit (PIU) is thus being set up and operationalized at SZI that will have overall responsibility for supporting project preparation and implementation.

SZI seeks to hire a high-performing and qualified Digital Skills Specialist, as an individual consultant who will provide advisory services to the PIU, SZI and the Ministry of Technology and Science on the development and implementation of strategies for enhancing digital literacy. The specialist should ensure that capacity building programs incorporate environmental and social considerations. The following are the detailed requirements for the Digital Skills Specialist.

The SZI now invites eligible Consultants to indicate their interest in providing the Services by submitting Expressions of Interest (EOI). Interested Consultants should provide information demonstrating that they have the required qualifications and relevant experience to perform the Services.

A Consultant will be selected through the ‘Individual Consultants Selection’ method using Open National Market Approach” in accordance with provisions in the World Bank’s “Procurement Regulations for IPF Borrowers” July 2016, Revised September 2023 (“Procurement Regulations”).
