BASIC SCOPE OF WORK.
HFHI is soliciting consultancy services, with a budget of USD 70,000, to undertake a research project on the intersection of informal settlements, public health, and gender equity; with the basic elements outlined below and further described the Detailed Scope of Work Annex. The annex provides the preferred technical, tactical, and methodological approach. However, HFHI is open to discussing and refining the scope and design of the research, to leverage the consultant’s expertise and ensure the research is conducted efficiently and effectively. Deliverables to HFHI shall include those customarily performed by a think tank, research institution, or consultant firm to a business in the same or similar industry, including, but not limited to, the following:
A. Issue brief of approximately 10,000 words excluding bibliography and annexes. The narrative style should balance technical rigor, appeal to a policy minded G7 audience, and clarity so that content is also relevant to the general public. B. New global statistics that contribute newsworthy hard evidence to policy discussions on informal settlements, public health, and gender equity.
C. Comprehensive country-level dataset that will be used by HFHI to contextualize the global messages at the regional and the national levels.
D. Local ground-truthing of the global statistics that includes the voices of people living in informal settlements in at least three regions of the world. This exercise can be coordinated with HFHI’s network of national offices.
E. Methodological annex that clarifies the framework, process, indicators, and limitations.
F. Validation of with external stakeholders -via a workshop or some other tool- of the policy recommendations prepared by researchers with HFHI staff.
G. Present the research’s findings in at least one internal and one external venue. HFHI will look evaluate proposals by Contractors addressing the above areas, with the additional considerations in the Detailed Scope of Work. We encourage Contractors to provide information about other services which may be offered or provided based on any particular area of expertise.
PROPOSAL CONTENTS.

1. Business overview: General information on the organization including length of time in business, structure, size, areas of expertise, key personnel, key projects, awards and industry recognition.

2. Proposed team: Describe the team that will be assigned to this project. Clarify roles, estimate dedication and qualifications per team member. Identify any subcontractors whose services will be needed for this project. Please provide summarized CVs for each team member.
