Titel: 81317996-Technical Assistance for performance-based service delivery in Kenya
Beschreibung: Subject of the tender procedure: Technical Assistance for performance-based service delivery in Kenya Project description Title: Strengthening Good Governance in Kenya Commissioned by: German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and Co-Financed by the European Union (EU) Country: Kenya Main political partner: Office of the Attorney General and Department of Justice (AGDoJ) Overall term: 01/2025 to 12/2027 (Term of EU Output: 01/2025 to 09/2027) Context The Strengthening Good Governance Programme in Kenya, herein referred to as GoGo programme, aims at improving governance in Kenya in terms of anti-corruption, accountability, transparency and impact orientation. The GoGo programme is commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), co-financed by the European Union (EU) and implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. To achieve its objective, the program focuses on improving administrative practices at the sub-national level to support impact-oriented service delivery, and on enhancing the legal and institutional framework for managing public finances and combating corruption. This consultancy contract supports the implementation of the EU-commissioned output (EU Output). Performance management (PM) is key in public administration and service delivery especially at subnational level. The streamlining of processes, optimization of scarce resources as well as the enhancement of efficiency and effectiveness in service delivery depends mostly on functioning systems of PM, by streamlining, reducing waste, and optimizing resource use. It promotes accountability and transparency, ensures public servants are responsible for their actions and outcomes, which builds public trust. Despite progress of public sector reforms, Kenya still has significant challenges which impede effective performance management and accountable service delivery. Initially successful, performance management has lost momentum over time. Frequent changes in the responsible office due to government regime shifts have led to fragmented management and inconsistent tool application, resulting in uncoordinated implementation. Additional challenges include in-adequate funding, weak oversight capacity, lack of clear incentives and sanctions, and non-compliance with guidelines. Consequently, these issues have led to inefficient resource use, duplicated efforts, and a lack of accountability for achieving impactful results for Kenyan citizens. Objective The objective is to create more accountable, transparent and efficient public institutions that provide improved services to citizens. Approach To achieve its objective, the program focuses on the following result areas: Outcome and Outputs Indicators Outcome: County systems are improved to deliver devolved services. Output 1: Roll-out of the Kenya Integrated Performance Management Policy (KIPMP) to county governments. I 1.1 The Kenyan Integrated Performance Management Policy has been reviewed and updated. I 1.2. The legal framework (policies/ laws/ regulations) has been enacted to implement the KIPMP. Output 2: Strengthening the capacity of the Public Service Performance Management Unit (PSPMU) and the Public Service Commission (PSC). I 2.1: Number of certified staff (PSMU and PSC) on general concepts of performance management as well as newly elaborated methodologies on performance management. Output 3: Strengthening the capacity of County Public Service Boards (CPSBs) and County Assemblies, county departments for public service. I 3.1: Plans approved by county assemblies in the target counties with a gender-based approach. I 4.2: Number of county Public Service Board members and county assembly members/ technical staff are trained within the target counties. Output 4: Strengthened County (both executive and legislature) capacities in Public Expenditure Management (PEM) processes. I 4.1: Number of long-term plans in conformity with the County Governments Act, approved and integrated to medium-term planning and Medium-term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) processes in target counties with a gender-based approach. I 4.2: Number of county executive and county assembly technical staff trained on various aspects of PEM processes in target counties. Output 5: Institutionalised guidelines for County PEM processes with gender-based approaches I 5.1: Number of PEM guidelines developed and rolled out for use by target counties The lead executing agency for the project is the Office of the Attorney General and Department of Justice (OAG&DoJ). Other key partners include the Council of Governors (CoG), Public Service Performance Management Unit (PSPMU), State Department for Devolution (SDD) and 15 County Executives & Assemblies (Baringo, Elgeyo Marakwet, Embu, Homa Bay, Isiolo, Kakamega, Kilifi, Kirinyaga, Kisumu, Kwale, Machakos, Makueni, Tana River, Turkana and Vihiga). The ultimate beneficiaries of the programme are the citizens of Kenya who will benefit from a more citizen-oriented, trustworthy and accountable governance.
