the baseline that the child’s progress will be measured against. This will then be updated monthly. In the future, we will be looking to update the data management system to permit remote access from the field via mobile/tablet devices, allow multiple sources of data entry, have efficient storage and allow retrieval of data enabling effective reporting across the organization or to share with donors and beneficiaries. However, prior to this, it is necessary to establish suitable data collection which incorporate the new intervention areas such as; secondary tools schools, VTIs, child protection, girls’ mentorship both in primary and secondary schools and teacher mentorship. The data collected will be both qualitative and quantitative and where possible made suitable for collection on a mobile device and standardised so that data is in a format that can be easily uploaded onto a data management system. Objectives There are four main objectives for this consultancy: Objective 1 Upload existing bio-data onto Data Management System – Support LCD-GECT to upload the bio-data onto the Data Management System so that a baseline for each beneficiary is determined Where necessary, update the Data Management System to include bio-data previously not collected Ensure the project has complete datasets on all beneficiaries and that the data meets the required standards and is accurate Objective 2 Develop new Data Collection Tools and processes – Identify the project data necessary to satisfy the requirements of the donor and the monitoring and evaluation framework Develop a full set of simple data collection tools that enables collection of the project data identified and designed to calculate the impact of the project at the local level Ensure the data collected via tools can be easily uploaded onto a simple Data Management System and enables efficient data collection, verification, management and formatting Consider the use of mobile devices/tablets for some data collection when developing data collection tools Data collection tools should incorporate guidelines on how data needs to be collected, stored and processed to ensure data protection Objective 3 Train project team and partner staff on the use of data – collection tools
