F.6 AIDAR 752.242-70 PERIODIC PROGRESS REPORTS (OCT 2007)

(a) The contractor shall prepare and submit progress reports as specified in the contract schedule.

These reports are separate from the interim and final performance evaluation reports prepared by USAID in accordance with (48 CFR) FAR 42.15 and internal Agency procedures, but they may be used by USAID personnel or their authorized representatives when evaluating the contractor's performance.

(b) During any delay in furnishing a progress report required under this contract, the contracting officer may withhold from payment an amount not to exceed US$25,000 (or local currency equivalent) or 5.0 percent of the amount of this contract, whichever is less, until such time as the contractor submits the report or the contracting officer determines that the delay no longer has a detrimental effect on the Government's ability to monitor the contractor's progress.

F.7 PLANNING, MONITORING, EVALUATION, AND LEARNING

The Contractor must establish a rigorous monitoring, evaluation, and learning system for the Activity as a whole, including adequate staffing, technical support, and systems for routine data collection. During the first 45 days after the award is made, the Contractor must work closely with USAID to refine indicators, performance targets for each indicator and/or narrative-based approaches, and finalize the Activity Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning Plan (AMELP) that describes how progress towards the Activity objectives will be assessed and learning will be used to adapt implementation. Offerors are encouraged to consider using appropriate complexity-aware monitoring methods (such as most significant change, outcome harvesting, etc.) to monitor and evaluate a range of both intended and unintended outcomes resulting from this Activity as well as contextual indicators.

Overall, the approaches to data collection will emphasize:

● Local capacity building and institutionalization to promote sustainability;

● Dialogue, consultation, coordination, and alignment with host country institutions and organizations to ensure ownership; and

● Joint funding of data collection efforts. Partnerships with multiple stakeholders, including other USG agencies, donors, implementers, targeted GOS offices, and local NGOs is crucial to ensure more vigorous and sustained efforts to data https://www.law.cornell.edu/cfr/text/48/42.15 collection. This participatory approach lays the foundation for increased efficiency and ownership by successfully engaging all parties and sharing responsibilities for monitoring and information-gathering activities.

1. Activity Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning Plan Potential offerors should make themselves familiar with the current M&E system developed by Naatal Mbay, and based on the CommCare/CommAgri platform (refer to the Supporting Document entitled: “Farmer owned cloud database environment1”). The AMELP should be:

coordinated, to support alignment with stakeholders to the greatest extent possible, particularly with the DRDR2 and the Ministry of Agriculture M&E system; meaningful and timely, to effectively inform decision making and adaptive management; and consistent with USAID policy and guidance (such as the Feed the Future Indicator Handbook and the USAID Evaluation Policy), to remain up-to-date on standard protocols and the most recent thinking in evaluative science. Partnerships with stakeholders help ensure more rigorous and sustained efforts to data collection and lay the foundation for increased efficiency and ownership. The AMELP should also employ a gender lens whereby gender differential effects can be captured, analyzed, and used to improve implementation and promote learning.

A dynamic monitoring and reporting system is required to meet the demands for regularly scheduled and ad-hoc information and reports on Value Chain Services extensive program activities. The Contactor must include an M&E program that undertakes activity-level verification and validation of results, as well as ensures that Value Chain Services implementing partners’ data are timely, accurate and precise, and/or consistent with contractual agreements and USAID environmental regulations.

In addition to Value Chain Services wide program level impacts, the Contractor must include an M&E program that is capable of evaluating the program’s impact at the level of the ultimate end user and beneficiary. The program should adopt indicators in its AMELP that quantify the extent to which its component program elements are contributing to the three main IRs. In fact, many USAID indicators concentrate only on outputs, such as hectares cultivated using improved production technologies, families and households benefited or jobs created. While these measures assess the level of effort of USG-supported activities, they do not measure beneficiary or overall program-level impact. In this sense, there is an urgent need to include impact indicators, in an impact evaluation exercise in order to tell a more complete story about how Value Chain Services affects its target population and allows for real time program adjustments based on impact-level results.

The Contractor will be responsible for data collection and analysis required by USAID for performance reporting and sharing the information in a timely manner with USAID/Senegal, key Government of Senegal entities, and other key partners as appropriate. Information sharing will create opportunities to discuss progress, identify constraints, and find solutions with all stakeholders. The USAID/Senegal Economic Growth Office hosts regular (quarterly or bi-annual) sharing events whereby implementing partners share progress to date with USAID, each other, and other partners as appropriate. Overall, the approaches to data collection should emphasize local capacity building and institutionalization to support sustainability; dialogue, 1 refer to the Supporting Document entitled Farmer Owned Cloud Database - Farmer-owned cloud database 2 Rural Development Regional Office https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-aceRZ3-ZvrTHM0WkIyc3ZzSzA/view https://www.agrilinks.org/sites/default/files/resource/files/Farmer-Owned%20Cloud%20Database%20Environments_%20April%202015.pdf consultation, coordination, and alignment with host country institutions and organizations to ensure ownership; and joint funding of data collection efforts, where possible.

The information produced by the M&E Unit must also contribute to disseminating and advancing knowledge, successes and lessons learned about alternative development, livelihoods and consolidation strategies, and their impacts. For this purpose, the M&E Program will be responsible for organizing public events and producing publications with the collaboration of all Feed the Future Senegal Value Chain Services implementing agencies and stakeholders during the lifetime of the programs. Special attention will be dedicated to producing reader-friendly accessible information catered to Value Chain Services beneficiary communities about the impact of the Activity.

For Value Chain Services wide results reporting, implementing partners must use a common M&E results reporting system. The main implementer must be required to report on the common result indicators (as identified under the U.S. Standardized Foreign Assistance Program Structure and Definitions) through the central Activity M&E Unit. This Unit will assist with the development and rollout of the Value Chain Services -wide reporting platform, to be used by all implementing partners. As part of the implementation and M&E process it is also necessary to conduct field surveys of Activity beneficiaries, communities and local organizations, as well as random field verifications of the activities conducted by the implementers.

During the duration of the contract, the Contractor’s responsibilities include:

1. Monitor and evaluate Value Chain Services impact on beneficiaries, communities and local organizations (including baseline surveys, mid-term and final impact evaluations);

2. Monitor and evaluate Value Chain Services implementation progress and achievement of intermediate-level results using select standardized USG performance indicators towards achieving program-level goals;

3. Verify and review the data results of collected data;

4. Verify compliance of Value Chain Services interventions with Section 216 of the

Foreign Assistance Act (FAA);

5. Provide comprehensive information on the status and progress of all Feed the

Future Senegal Value Chain Services activities; and

6. Disseminate Value Chain Services information and progress to interested parties including the USG involved agencies and the GOS.

The AMELP should include a defined set of performance measures and indicators, including both required and custom indicators. Some of the afore-mentioned required indicators (Section J.1.7) are standard ones:

● Prevalence of poverty: Percent of people living on less than $1.90/day 2011 PPP (update of EG-a);

● Depth of poverty: Mean percent shortfall relative to the $1.90/day 2011 PPP poverty line (update of EG-b);

● Average consumption shortfall of the poor (using same data set as prevalence and depth of poverty);

● Daily per capita expenditures (EG.3-a);

● Number of households benefiting directly from USG assistance under Feed the Future

(EG.3-1);

● Number of individuals participating in USG food security programs [IM-level];

● Percentage of female participants in USG-assisted programs designed to increase access to productive economic resources [IM-level];

● Percentage of participants in USG-assisted programs designed to increase access to productive economic resources who are youth (15-29) [IM-level];

● Number of individuals in the agriculture system who have applied improved management practices or technologies with USG assistance [IM-level];

● Value of agriculture-related financing accessed as a result of USG assistance (EG.3.2-27)

[IM-level];

● Value of new USG commitments and private sector investment leveraged by the USG to support food security and nutrition [IM-level];

● Value of annual sales of farms and firms receiving USG assistance [IM-level];

● Number of full time equivalent jobs created with USG assistance (former EG.3-9);

● Yield of targeted agricultural commodities within target areas [ZOI-level];

●…
