Kort beskrivelse:

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is tendering a consultancy assignment for the Evaluation of Danish support to Human Rights and Democracy. The evaluation will be undertaken by a team of external consultants between June and November 2016.

Promoting and protecting human rights is an integral part of the Danish Strategy for Development Cooperation ‘The Right to a Better Life’. The strategy affirms a commitment to advance the human rights agenda at the policy level as well as in Danish development cooperation, channelled through multilateral engagements, bilateral development assistance and support to CSOs. Human rights are promoted via a wide range of interventions; through normative work, policy dialogue and direct implementation of development assistance to developing countries.

The evaluation will have a dual purpose: First to provide a broad overview of Danish support to advancing human rights through an assessment of engagements at the policy level as well as the operational level and assessing inter-linkages between these levels; and second to document results of Danish engagements within selected areas where Denmark has played a significant role in advancing human rights: 1) Combating torture; 2) Support to human rights institutions; 3) Indigenous people's rights; 4) CSR and 5) Access to justice and rule of law.

The evaluation serves both learning and accountability purposes, and the results of the evaluation are expected to feed into the ongoing revision of the Danish strategy for Development Cooperation as well as provide lessons learned to guide the implementation of Danish support to the promotion of human rights.

The evaluation team will consist of consultants with substantial experience within the field of human rights and with extensive experience with evaluation of development assistance (i.e. evaluations that conform to the DAC evaluation definition).

It is expected that the evaluation will include two country visits, both to take place in Africa.

The maximum budget for the assignment is 1 300 000 DKK.

In situations where conflict of interest occurs, candidates may be excluded from participation, if their participation may question the independence and impartiality of the Evaluation.

Expected start date for the assignment is 15.6.2016.

The tender procedure is subject to the law of Denmark and the rules applicable hereunder.

Any legal entity may only submit one application.

No restrictions on nationality.

The applications shall be submitted using the ESPD form available on http://um.dk/en/danida-en/activities/business/contracts/long/contract-opportunities/

A signed electronic version (pdf file) must be received by the Contracting Authority at the address stated in section I.1) before the time limit stated in section IV.2.2)) of this Contract Notice. In addition, an identical paper version must be sent to the Contracting Authority at the address stated in section I.1) before the time limit stated in section IV.2.2).

The Contracting Authority shall exclude an economic operator from participation in a procurement procedure where they have established that the applicant is covered by the exclusion grounds listed in the Danish Procurement law, (Udbudsloven) § 135 and 136 (Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, article 57(1)-(3), and article 57 (4)(e),(f) and (h).)

The Contracting Authority will exclude an applicant from the procurement procedure if the applicant is in a situation covered by the Danish Procurement law (Udbudsloven) § 137, stk. 1, no. 2. (Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, article 57 (4) (b).)

The Tenderer shall include in the technical tender, documentation for the information given in the ESPD regarding the exclusion grounds listed in the Danish Procurement law § 135, stk. 1 and 3, and §137 stk. 1, no. 2. (EU Directive 2014/24/EU, article 57 (1), article 57 (2), and article 57 (4)(b)). For Danish applicants documentation can be presented in the form of a ‘serviceattest’.

The Ministry reserves the right — but is not obliged — to use the remedies provided for in the Danish procurement law, §159, stk. 5, if applications or tenders do not fulfil the formalities of the tender documents. (Directive 2014/24/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, article 56 (3))

Rationale for not splitting the contract up into lots (cf. Danish Procurement Law §49, stk. 2): This contract has not been split into lots due to market and economic considerations. The size and character of the services to be provided makes it unsuitable for distributing over several lots.

If a Tenderer is eligible and the tender substantially responsive, its Candidate for the position as Team leader is expected to be invited for an interview.

Failure to comply with this will lead to disqualification of the Tenderer. Interviews of Team Leader candidates are expected to take place 30.5.2016 in Copenhagen.

The Client opposes exclusive agreements with sub-consultants, be they organisations or individuals.
