Assignment Title: Technical assistance for development of the ANPDP System for S. Tomé and Principe

Reference No. 06/C/DSTP/2023

The Government of São Tomé and Príncipe (GoSTP) has received a grant from the International Development Association (IDA) to cover the cost of the DIGITAL SÃO TOMÉ E PRÍNCIPE Project (DSTP) and intends to apply a portion of such grant for payments under the contract to recruit a specialized consulting firm to PROVID the Technical assistance for DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF AN INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THE INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT OF THE NATIONAL AGENCY FOR THE PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA (ANPDP) for S. Tomé and Principe.

The National Agency for the Protection of Personal Data (ANPDP) was institutionalized on April 24, 2018, as a State Authority, nationwide, independent and with administrative, financial and patrimonial autonomy.

Its Main Mission, pursuant to article 3 of Law No. 07/2017 – Law on the Organization and Operation of the ANPDP (LOFANPDP), is to control and supervise compliance with legal and regulatory provisions on the protection of personal data, in strict respect for human rights and the freedoms and guarantees enshrined in the Constitution and the law.

In order to fulfill its Mission, the ANPDP is structured, in terms of Support, into four Services, namely: (I) Legal; (ii) Information and International Relations; (iii) IT and Inspection; and (iv) Administrative and Financial.

ANPDP activities have been carried out manually or using Microsoft applications, which poses great difficulties, both in terms of recording and processing, in terms of quality and control, and also in terms of the reports necessary for decision-making and information that, under legal terms, must be made available to internal and external customers.

Therefore, it is expected that these and other operational difficulties can be overcome with applications that will be designed and developed to measure.

DSTP now invites eligible consultants to indicate their interest in providing these services. Interested consultants must provide information indicating that they are qualified to perform the services (brochures, description of similar assignments, experience in similar conditions, availability of appropriate skills among staff, etc.). Consultants may constitute joint-ventures to enhance their chances of qualification.

The attention of interested Consultants is drawn to Section III, paragraphs, 3.14, 3.16, and 3.17 of the World Bank’s “Procurement Regulations for IPF Borrowers” November 2020 (“Procurement Regulations”), setting forth the World Bank’s policy on conflict of interest.

A Consultant will be selected in accordance with the CQS – Consultant Qualification Selection method set out in the Procurement Regulations.

Interested consultants may obtain the Terms of Reference through the email provided below.

Expressions of interest must be delivered in a written form to address below or in pdf format sent to the e-mail address included, by September 15, 2023 at 11:45 am (local time) and should mention “FIRM TO PROVID the Technical assistance for DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF AN INFORMATION SYSTEM FOR THE INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT OF THE NATIONAL AGENCY FOR THE PROTECTION OF PERSONAL DATA (ANPDP) for S.
