There is no financial contribution from the openIMIS Initiative to this call.

Phase 1

The openIMIS Initiative registered openIMIS as such in the first step: https://digitalx.undp.org/apply.html

openIMIS was in a batch of ca. 130 from ca. 1000 incoming proposals that were selected for further processing.

Phase 2

In the next phase, the UNDP's Chief Digital Office has just launched an Expression of Interest (EOI) to be part of the Digital X Solutions Catalogue. This is more suitable for potential vendors (aka implementers) of openIMIS. If you would like to apply, please follow the instructions on this page: https://procurement-notices.undp.org/view_notice.cfm?notice_id=93802

Please note:

1. Expression of Interest closes August 8 at 5am New York time. Please submit your application before this time.

2. Please email questions directly to cdo.procurement@undp.org. All questions / answers will be shared with potential vendors (omitting information that potentially identifies a vendor).

We had already registered the tools as openIMIS Initiative in the previous phase (and got already quite far in the process). The benefit to those who got selected will be an entry in the UNDP catalogue of acceptable solutions for UNDP projects in countries (with varying budgets). 

In the current expression of interest YOU will have to register as a potential implementer for openIMIS. Basically the questionnaire is said to be the same as the one we had previously filled, so you can copy and paste most of it from the attached word-doc and just modify your company specific profiles.

There is also a series of timeslots for Q&A this week, that you should use to get clarifications about the process. You can sign up for a session here (they are hosting multiple session options between July 22 – July 29, you only need to join one).
