Request for Proposal

DETAIL DESCRIPTION : 

This Request for Proposal (RFP) invites potential subcontractors to submit one technical proposal, with an associated cost proposal and budget, to provide technical assistance with developing an Electronic Gift Registry database system(the System), which ultimately will be transferred to and managed by the Corruption Prevention Commission (CPC). The System will have some overlap with the CPC’s current electronic asset declaration system and can be considered a module of that. The System should be considered as an interconnected element of the Corruption Prevention Commission’s (CPC) overall E-Platform.
Dexis anticipates that this RFP will result in a subcontract between AIP and the successful offeror.
In 2018, the A Law "On Public Service" was adopted, the seventh chapter of which is completely dedicated to the integrity system. The ban on accepting gifts by public servants was included in the integrity system and as a component of the integrity system was one of the tools for ensuring transparency in the public service and managing corruption risks.
The Corruption Prevention Commission, with the support of the RA Ministry of Justice has developed a concept and action plan for the improvement of the framework for the prohibition of accepting gifts by public officials and public servants, which is reflected in the Action Plan of the RA Government. According to the Action Plan public officials and public servants are obliged to record the permissible gifts received by them in the gift registry. In this regard it is crucial to develop an electronic gift registry to monitor the gifts received by the public officials and enhance the integrity system in the public sector.
The implementation of the digital system of gifts will provide automated solutions for the registration of gifts, their evaluation, and publication of the information, and will ensure the interoperability of the system with other digital databases.
As a result of the design and construction of the System, it is assumed that full digital supervision should be ensured over the registration of gifts received by public officials and civil servants in the course of performing their official duties and related to this function.
The new electronic declaration system has been operational since February 1, 2023. As a result of the design and construction of the electronic declaration system, the possibility of completing and submitting declarations electronically is provided. The digital system for registering gifts will be developed based on the e-declaration system of the Commission, by introducing it as an integrated system of the asset declaration platform.
The database of the gift registry system will be stored the same way as the Declaration System (DS) is presently stored, which is presently located at a secure facility with access granted to only authorized personnel.
From the perspective of public officials, the portal will be intuitive and easy to use, and will operate similarly to the DS and any other regularly used secure online systems with self-service registration.
