Mid-Term Progress Review (ICF - DP).

Descriptions

The Private Infrastructure Development Group (PIDG), is a multi donor platform that aims at helping to increase the level of private sector investment in the infrastructure of developing countries in order to accelerate growth and contribute to the elimination of poverty. For more detail on the PIDG please refer to Annex A and the PIDG website: www.pidg.orgAs part of PIDG's monitoring and evaluation of its activities, the PIDG Trust commissions (on behalf of the PIDG Members) regular independent progress reviews and evaluations of the performance of each of the PIDG Facilities. This enables the PIDG Members to assess the success (or otherwise) of the Facilities' activities and whether any changes are required to the structure, operations and objectives of the Facility.The PIDG Trust wishes to commission a consultant (the “Consultant”) to undertake the first independent progress review of the Infrastructure Crisis Facility – Debt Pool (ICF-DP) (the “Progress Review”).The Progress Review must cover all of ICF-DP's activities from inception (September 2009) to 30.6.2014. The Progress Review will not only include an assessment of ICF-DP's investments, but will also assess ICF-DP's governance structure, IPOP and other policies and procedures, as well as the services provided by Cordiant. The Progress Review must address the following key questions and issues, which incorporate the OECD's DAC's Evaluation Criteria for the strategic relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact and sustainability of the facility.
