East Africa Community

EAC Branding Project Process

Call for Proposals

With the aim to support EAC’s vision, mission, values and strategic goals the EAC Secretariat has developed a Communication Policy & Strategy. 

One of the main objectives is to enhance the brand image of the EAC and to reinforce the internal and external communications efforts. 

As a means of achieving this, the EAC Corporate Communications Department and GIZ have embarked jointly to take a holistic approach to develop a Design Guide by carrying out an entire branding project. 

We are therefore looking for a consultant (s) to plan and execute such a project.
 

The Consultant (s) should have:

• At least a masters degree in Communications, International Marketing or a related field from a recognised university/institution.
• Minimum 15 years work experience in strategic communications and corporate branding both on a strategic and an operational level.
• A solid experience working with employer branding in large organisations.
• Experience in carrying out a whole branding project from planning and execution to implementation in a corporate/public or intergovernmental entity is a MUST.
• Strong project management skills, with the ability to execute in a structured manner.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Experience working with the survey tool SurveyMonkey is an added advantage.

The estimated duration of the assignment is a maximum of 180 working days starting from July 2013 to December 2014. 

The assignment requires the consultant(s) to be on-site at the EAC Headquarters in Arusha, Tanzania in regular and frequent intervals.
 

The EAC-GIZ program is asking interested consultants to submit a short (5 pages maximum) technical proposal as well as a separate financial proposal. 

Interested consultant(s) 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.). 

Experts may constitute joint-ventures to enhance their chances of qualification.
 

The proposal should also indicate the qualifications and their ability to undertake the project within the time frame identified.
 

Eligibility criteria, establishment of the short-list and the selection procedure shall be in accordance with GIZ Procurement Rules and Procedures.
