# Reconstruction of the Yaoundé–Edéa road and two weigh stations, three lots

Cameroon’s Ministry of Public Works invites international bids to reconstruct the 167 km Yaoundé–Edéa road in three lots under the World Bank-financed Douala–Bangui Economic Corridor Programme, Phase 1. Lot 1 is Yaoundé–Madoumba (52.05 km), Lot 2 Madoumba–Pont de Ndoupé (52.05 km), and Lot 3 Pont de Ndoupé–Carrefour Edéa (62.90 km); each has a 30-month execution period. Work includes pavement reconstruction, selected 2×2 widening, curve improvements, drainage and structure repairs; weigh-station construction and digitalization are in Lots 1 and 3. Technical and cost scores each weigh 50%; bids may cover one or more lots. The notice states 24 November 2026 at 11:00, but its API separates date and time without timezone and the canonical UTC timestamp cannot be reconciled, so only the date is published as the precise deadline.

Auditor Terms of Reference FOR THE AUDIT OF: REGIONAL OECS SKILLS AND INNOVATION PROJECT FINANCED BY WORLD BANK LOAN IDA E2860 IMPLEMENTED BY THE ORGANISATION OF EASTERN CARIBBEAN STATES DURING THE PERIOD MARCH 9, 2024 &ndash; JUNE 30, 2028 I. Basic Considerations for Audits of Projects Financed by the World Bank These Terms of Reference provide the basic information needed by the auditor to obtain an understanding of the engagement, in order to prepare a proposal and to plan and perform the audit of the project. To deepen understanding of the assignment, the audit firm must also read the following documents relating to the project: Project Appraisal Document, Project Grant/Financing Agreement, World Bank Disbursement Guidelines for Projects (2017), World Bank Procurement Regulations, the Project Disbursement and Financial Information Letter and the Project Operating Manual. These documents can be obtained from the OECS Commission via email upon the award of the contract. Furthermore, these documents are specifically considered an integral part of the TORs. The project financial period covers the period from July 1 to June 30. II. Relationships and Responsibilities The client for this audit is the Implementing Entity (IE), and the Bank is an interested party. A Bank representative may participate in the entrance and exit meetings; supervise the work performed by the auditors to ensure that it complies with the terms of reference and the applicable auditing standards, and to provide comments on the draft audit report. The implementing entity of this project is the OECS Commission. The IE is responsible for preparing all the financial statements and reports required, and for ensuring that all the necessary records are available for the audit, that all the accounting entries and adjustments are made, and that all the necessary actions have been taken to allow the auditors to issue the final report before the submission deadline. The auditors should maintain on file adequate working papers for a period of three years after the end of the audit. III. Project Background The OECS Commission, and the Governments of Grenada and Saint Lucia, with support from the World Bank, are currently implementing this project to enhance youth transversal and advanced technical skills, strengthen regional collaboration in post-secondary education, and foster collaborative innovation in the Participating Eastern Caribbean Countries. This project consists of four (4) components which are financed by World Bank Grant Number IDA E2860, in the amount of US$ 36 million, with US$ 6 million being assigned to the OECS Commission. Component 1 will be implemented by the OECS Commission. Component 2 and 4 will be managed by the Governments of Grenada and Saint Lucia respectively, while Component 3 will be jointly managed by the OECSC, and the Governments of Grenada and Saint Lucia. However, each implementing agency is charged with procuring its own auditors. For the purposes of the audit referred to in these Terms of Reference (TOR), only Component 1 and part of Component 3, implemented by the OECS Commission (Grant amount US$ 6 million), shall be considered. Component 1: Fostering regional collaboration for skills and innovation in the post-secondary space (US$4.8 million) will support the development of an overarching regional strategic framework for post-secondary education and of mechanisms to enhance collaboration among OECS Member States on post-secondary education, the improvement of post-secondary data at the regional level, and the development of a regional innovation ecosystem with strong participation of post-secondary institutions. The component will be implemented by the OECSC through an IDA grant. Component 2: Strengthening post-secondary institutions and collaborative innovation (US$27 million; US$600,000 unguaranteed commercial financing) will provide direct support to National Colleges and other selected post-secondary institutions in participating countries to implement Regional Enhancement Plans (REPs), develop new or enhance existing programs for priority skills, and support collaborative innovation projects, with the objective of promoting improved learning environments and fostering better skills and innovation in the OECS to respond to increasing private sector demand for skills. The component will be implemented by Project Implementation Units (PIUs) in Saint Lucia and Grenada. Component 3: Project Management and Technical Assistance (US$4.2 million; US$1.2 million is allocated to the OECS Commission) will provide technical assistance to support the implementation of Project activities and finance the establishment and functioning of three PIUs. Component 4: Contingent Emergency Response Component (CERC) (US$0 million). Because of the OECS&rsquo; high vulnerability to natural disasters, including those exacerbated by climate change, and its vulnerability to global shocks, as exposed by the COVID-19 crisis, the Project includes a CERC. This Component will facilitate the use of critical resources in the event of an eligible national emergency. It will have an initial zero budget allocation but would allow for rapid reallocation of project funds in the event of an eligible natural disaster or crisis that has caused or is likely to imminently cause major adverse economic and/or social impacts IV. Audit Background The Regional OECS Skills and Innovation Project was approved on January 11, 2024, and signed by the OECS on March 9, 2024, and became effective on May 10, 2024. The project closure date is January 8, 2030, with an application deadline date of May 8, 2030. The Grant Agreement requires the project&rsquo;s accounts to be audited annually. These terms of reference relate to conducting the project audit from: March 9, 2024 to June 30, 2026 July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027 July 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028 V. Title of the Audit All proposals, audit working papers, and audit reports for the three periods should use the following names: &ldquo; Audit of the Resources Managed during the period from March 9, 2024 to June 30, 2026 by the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States under the OECS- Skills and Innovation Project E2860.&rdquo; &ldquo;Audit of the Resources Managed during the period from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027 by the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States under the OECS- Skills and Innovation Project E2860.&rdquo; &ldquo;Audit of the Resources Managed during the period from July 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028 by the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States under the OECS- Skills and Innovation Project E2860.&rdquo; VI. Audit Objectives The overall objective of this engagement is to allow the auditor to express a professional opinion on the project financial statements as to whether they are free from material misstatements and are prepared in accordance with stipulated accounting standards, the eligibility of expenditures, compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and financial clauses of the trust fund agreement, and to report on the adequacy and adherence of the internal controls. The engagement will include an audit of resources provided by the Bank and an assessment of the internal controls of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States Commission. The disbursement from the World Bank (WB) disclosed in the Project financial statements should be reconciled with the WB records. The audit must be performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISA or ISSAIs) or other national standards which do not significantly depart from the international standards and therefore must include the tests of the accounting records that the auditors consider necessary under the circumstances. The specific objectives of the audit are to: Issue an opinion as to whether the Project financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the project, the funds received and the disbursements made during the period audited, as well as the cumulative investments at the end of the period, in accordance with financial reporting provisions outlined in the respective legal agreements with the Bank and other co-financing organizations. Issue an opinion as to whether: (a) the expenditures reported are eligible for financing; and (b) trust funds have been used only for Project purposes. Issue a report with respect to the adequacy of the internal control structure of the implementing institution in regard to the project. Issue an opinion with respect to the implementing entity&#39;s compliance with the terms of the trust fund agreements and applicable laws and regulations (with regard to the financial aspects). Issue an opinion as to whether the Statement of the Designated Account and Project Accounts used for managing the funds provided by the Bank present fairly the availability of funds at the end of the period audited, as well as the transactions made during the same period, in accordance with financial reporting provisions outlined in the project&rsquo;s legal agreements. VII. Scope of the Audit The audit will cover the parts of the regional OECS Skills and Innovation Project that are implemented by the OECS (Component 1 and part of Component 3). The audit must include adequate planning, the evaluation and testing of the internal control structure and systems, and obtaining sufficient objective evidence to allow the auditors to reach reasonable conclusions on which to base their opinions. In conducting their work, the auditors should pay special attention to the following requirements: All project funds should be used in accordance with the conditions of the financing agreement, with due attention to economy and efficiency, and only for the purposes for which the financing was provided. Goods, Works and Services financed should be procured in accordance with the relevant financing agreement. The Implementing Entity (IE) should keep all necessary supporting documents, records, and accounts for all project ventures, including expenditures reported via interim unaudited financial reports (IFRs) or Designated Accounts. Clear linkages should exist between the books of account and reports presented to the Bank. Where Designated Accounts have been used, they should be maintained in accordance with the provisions of the relevant financing agreement. The project accounts should be prepared in accordance with the financial reporting provisions outlined in the project legal agreements, applied consistently, and should give a true and fair view of the project&rsquo;s financial situation at the end of the period and of the resources and expenditures for the year ended on that date. National laws (regarding the remittance of statutory obligations etc.) and regulations have been complied with, and the financial and accounting procedures approved for the project (e.g. operational manual, financial procedures manual, etc.) were followed and applied. Assets procured using project funds exist, are recorded in the fixed asset register, and are verifiably owned by the implementing agency or beneficiaries in line with the financing agreement. Ineligible expenditures included in withdrawal applications are identified and reimbursed to the Designated Accounts. The audit report should note these separately. The audit should be performed in accordance with International Auditing Standards, and therefore should include tests of the accounting records that the auditors consider necessary under the circumstances. The auditors should be able to detect situations or transactions that may indicate fraudulent, wasteful, or illegal acts and expenditures. If such evidence exists, the auditors must communicate the situation simultaneously to a duly authorized representative of the Bank and to the Project management, and exercise caution and due professional care in expanding their audit steps and procedures related to illegal acts. In complying with the International Standards on Auditing, the auditor is expected to pay particular attention to the following matters: a) Fraud and Corruption : Consider the risks of material misstatements in the project financial statements due to fraud as required by ISA 240: The Auditor&rsquo;s Responsibility to Consider Fraud in an Audit of Financial Statements. The auditor is required to identify and assess these risks (of material misstatement of the financial statements) due to fraud, obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the assessed risks; and respond appropriately to identified or suspected fraud. b) Laws and Regulations : In designing and performing audit procedures, evaluating and reporting the results, consider that noncompliance by the implementing agency with laws and regulations may materially affect the financial statements as required by ISA 250: Consideration of Laws and Regulations in an Audit of Financial Statements. c) Governance : Communicate audit matters of governance interest arising from the audit of financial statements with those charged with governance of an entity as required by International Standard on Auditing 260: Communication of Audit Matters with Those Charged with Governance. d) Risks : In order to reduce audit risk to an acceptably low level, determine the overall responses to assessed risks at the financial statement level, and design and perform further audit procedures to respond to assessed risks at the assertion level as required by Internal Standard on Auditing 330: The Auditor&rsquo;s Procedures in Response to Assessed Risks. VIII. Other Responsibilities of the Auditor The auditor should comply with the following requirements: Conduct entrance and exit meetings with the implementing entity. Plan the audit work so that preliminary reviews can be conducted during the period under review (including the first few months), with the purpose of evaluating the systems of internal control and communicating to the implementing unit in a timely manner any situations that merit the attention of management before the issuance of the final audit report. Independently reference the audit report before issuing it.

Auditor Terms of Reference FOR THE AUDIT OF: REGIONAL OECS SKILLS AND INNOVATION PROJECT FINANCED BY WORLD BANK LOAN IDA E2860 IMPLEMENTED BY THE ORGANISATION OF EASTERN CARIBBEAN STATES DURING THE PERIOD MARCH 9, 2024 &ndash; JUNE 30, 2028 I. Basic Considerations for Audits of Projects Financed by the World Bank These Terms of Reference provide the basic information needed by the auditor to obtain an understanding of the engagement, in order to prepare a proposal and to plan and perform the audit of the project. To deepen understanding of the assignment, the audit firm must also read the following documents relating to the project: Project Appraisal Document, Project Grant/Financing Agreement, World Bank Disbursement Guidelines for Projects (2017), World Bank Procurement Regulations, the Project Disbursement and Financial Information Letter and the Project Operating Manual. These documents can be obtained from the OECS Commission via email upon the award of the contract. Furthermore, these documents are specifically considered an integral part of the TORs. The project financial period covers the period from July 1 to June 30. II. Relationships and Responsibilities The client for this audit is the Implementing Entity (IE), and the Bank is an interested party. A Bank representative may participate in the entrance and exit meetings; supervise the work performed by the auditors to ensure that it complies with the terms of reference and the applicable auditing standards, and to provide comments on the draft audit report. The implementing entity of this project is the OECS Commission. The IE is responsible for preparing all the financial statements and reports required, and for ensuring that all the necessary records are available for the audit, that all the accounting entries and adjustments are made, and that all the necessary actions have been taken to allow the auditors to issue the final report before the submission deadline. The auditors should maintain on file adequate working papers for a period of three years after the end of the audit. III. Project Background The OECS Commission, and the Governments of Grenada and Saint Lucia, with support from the World Bank, are currently implementing this project to enhance youth transversal and advanced technical skills, strengthen regional collaboration in post-secondary education, and foster collaborative innovation in the Participating Eastern Caribbean Countries. This project consists of four (4) components which are financed by World Bank Grant Number IDA E2860, in the amount of US$ 36 million, with US$ 6 million being assigned to the OECS Commission. Component 1 will be implemented by the OECS Commission. Component 2 and 4 will be managed by the Governments of Grenada and Saint Lucia respectively, while Component 3 will be jointly managed by the OECSC, and the Governments of Grenada and Saint Lucia. However, each implementing agency is charged with procuring its own auditors. For the purposes of the audit referred to in these Terms of Reference (TOR), only Component 1 and part of Component 3, implemented by the OECS Commission (Grant amount US$ 6 million), shall be considered. Component 1: Fostering regional collaboration for skills and innovation in the post-secondary space (US$4.8 million) will support the development of an overarching regional strategic framework for post-secondary education and of mechanisms to enhance collaboration among OECS Member States on post-secondary education, the improvement of post-secondary data at the regional level, and the development of a regional innovation ecosystem with strong participation of post-secondary institutions. The component will be implemented by the OECSC through an IDA grant. Component 2: Strengthening post-secondary institutions and collaborative innovation (US$27 million; US$600,000 unguaranteed commercial financing) will provide direct support to National Colleges and other selected post-secondary institutions in participating countries to implement Regional Enhancement Plans (REPs), develop new or enhance existing programs for priority skills, and support collaborative innovation projects, with the objective of promoting improved learning environments and fostering better skills and innovation in the OECS to respond to increasing private sector demand for skills. The component will be implemented by Project Implementation Units (PIUs) in Saint Lucia and Grenada. Component 3: Project Management and Technical Assistance (US$4.2 million; US$1.2 million is allocated to the OECS Commission) will provide technical assistance to support the implementation of Project activities and finance the establishment and functioning of three PIUs. Component 4: Contingent Emergency Response Component (CERC) (US$0 million). Because of the OECS&rsquo; high vulnerability to natural disasters, including those exacerbated by climate change, and its vulnerability to global shocks, as exposed by the COVID-19 crisis, the Project includes a CERC. This Component will facilitate the use of critical resources in the event of an eligible national emergency. It will have an initial zero budget allocation but would allow for rapid reallocation of project funds in the event of an eligible natural disaster or crisis that has caused or is likely to imminently cause major adverse economic and/or social impacts IV. Audit Background The Regional OECS Skills and Innovation Project was approved on January 11, 2024, and signed by the OECS on March 9, 2024, and became effective on May 10, 2024. The project closure date is January 8, 2030, with an application deadline date of May 8, 2030. The Grant Agreement requires the project&rsquo;s accounts to be audited annually. These terms of reference relate to conducting the project audit from: March 9, 2024 to June 30, 2026 July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027 July 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028 V. Title of the Audit All proposals, audit working papers, and audit reports for the three periods should use the following names: &ldquo; Audit of the Resources Managed during the period from March 9, 2024 to June 30, 2026 by the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States under the OECS- Skills and Innovation Project E2860.&rdquo; &ldquo;Audit of the Resources Managed during the period from July 1, 2026 to June 30, 2027 by the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States under the OECS- Skills and Innovation Project E2860.&rdquo; &ldquo;Audit of the Resources Managed during the period from July 1, 2027 to June 30, 2028 by the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States under the OECS- Skills and Innovation Project E2860.&rdquo; VI. Audit Objectives The overall objective of this engagement is to allow the auditor to express a professional opinion on the project financial statements as to whether they are free from material misstatements and are prepared in accordance with stipulated accounting standards, the eligibility of expenditures, compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and financial clauses of the trust fund agreement, and to report on the adequacy and adherence of the internal controls. The engagement will include an audit of resources provided by the Bank and an assessment of the internal controls of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States Commission. The disbursement from the World Bank (WB) disclosed in the Project financial statements should be reconciled with the WB records. The audit must be performed in accordance with the International Standards on Auditing (ISA or ISSAIs) or other national standards which do not significantly depart from the international standards and therefore must include the tests of the accounting records that the auditors consider necessary under the circumstances. The specific objectives of the audit are to: Issue an opinion as to whether the Project financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the project, the funds received and the disbursements made during the period audited, as well as the cumulative investments at the end of the period, in accordance with financial reporting provisions outlined in the respective legal agreements with the Bank and other co-financing organizations. Issue an opinion as to whether: (a) the expenditures reported are eligible for financing; and (b) trust funds have been used only for Project purposes. Issue a report with respect to the adequacy of the internal control structure of the implementing institution in regard to the project. Issue an opinion with respect to the implementing entity&#39;s compliance with the terms of the trust fund agreements and applicable laws and regulations (with regard to the financial aspects). Issue an opinion as to whether the Statement of the Designated Account and Project Accounts used for managing the funds provided by the Bank present fairly the availability of funds at the end of the period audited, as well as the transactions made during the same period, in accordance with financial reporting provisions outlined in the project&rsquo;s legal agreements. VII. Scope of the Audit The audit will cover the parts of the regional OECS Skills and Innovation Project that are implemented by the OECS (Component 1 and part of Component 3). The audit must include adequate planning, the evaluation and testing of the internal control structure and systems, and obtaining sufficient objective evidence to allow the auditors to reach reasonable conclusions on which to base their opinions. In conducting their work, the auditors should pay special attention to the following requirements: All project funds should be used in accordance with the conditions of the financing agreement, with due attention to economy and efficiency, and only for the purposes for which the financing was provided. Goods, Works and Services financed should be procured in accordance with the relevant financing agreement. The Implementing Entity (IE) should keep all necessary supporting documents, records, and accounts for all project ventures, including expenditures reported via interim unaudited financial reports (IFRs) or Designated Accounts. Clear linkages should exist between the books of account and reports presented to the Bank. Where Designated Accounts have been used, they should be maintained in accordance with the provisions of the relevant financing agreement. The project accounts should be prepared in accordance with the financial reporting provisions outlined in the project legal agreements, applied consistently, and should give a true and fair view of the project&rsquo;s financial situation at the end of the period and of the resources and expenditures for the year ended on that date. National laws (regarding the remittance of statutory obligations etc.) and regulations have been complied with, and the financial and accounting procedures approved for the project (e.g. operational manual, financial procedures manual, etc.) were followed and applied. Assets procured using project funds exist, are recorded in the fixed asset register, and are verifiably owned by the implementing agency or beneficiaries in line with the financing agreement. Ineligible expenditures included in withdrawal applications are identified and reimbursed to the Designated Accounts. The audit report should note these separately. The audit should be performed in accordance with International Auditing Standards, and therefore should include tests of the accounting records that the auditors consider necessary under the circumstances. The auditors should be able to detect situations or transactions that may indicate fraudulent, wasteful, or illegal acts and expenditures. If such evidence exists, the auditors must communicate the situation simultaneously to a duly authorized representative of the Bank and to the Project management, and exercise caution and due professional care in expanding their audit steps and procedures related to illegal acts. In complying with the International Standards on Auditing, the auditor is expected to pay particular attention to the following matters: a) Fraud and Corruption : Consider the risks of material misstatements in the project financial statements due to fraud as required by ISA 240: The Auditor&rsquo;s Responsibility to Consider Fraud in an Audit of Financial Statements. The auditor is required to identify and assess these risks (of material misstatement of the financial statements) due to fraud, obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence about the assessed risks; and respond appropriately to identified or suspected fraud. b) Laws and Regulations : In designing and performing audit procedures, evaluating and reporting the results, consider that noncompliance by the implementing agency with laws and regulations may materially affect the financial statements as required by ISA 250: Consideration of Laws and Regulations in an Audit of Financial Statements. c) Governance : Communicate audit matters of governance interest arising from the audit of financial statements with those charged with governance of an entity as required by International Standard on Auditing 260: Communication of Audit Matters with Those Charged with Governance. d) Risks : In order to reduce audit risk to an acceptably low level, determine the overall responses to assessed risks at the financial statement level, and design and perform further audit procedures to respond to assessed risks at the assertion level as required by Internal Standard on Auditing 330: The Auditor&rsquo;s Procedures in Response to Assessed Risks. VIII. Other Responsibilities of the Auditor The auditor should comply with the following requirements: Conduct entrance and exit meetings with the implementing entity. Plan the audit work so that preliminary reviews can be conducted during the period under review (including the first few months), with the purpose of evaluating the systems of internal control and communicating to the implementing unit in a timely manner any situations that merit the attention of management before the issuance of the final audit report. Independently reference the audit report before issuing it. Obtain a Management Representation Letter in accordance with Section 580 of the International Standards on Auditing, signed by the management of the Project IE. IX. Audit Reports The auditors shall issue their report containing the required opinions and conclusions noted below. All the reports resulting from the audit of the project should be incorporated into one document except the management letter, which should be issued separately.

The audit report on the internal control structure for the Project. The report should disclose, among other information discussed in this TOR, the reportable conditions (those that have an impact on the financial statements), including the identification of material weaknesses in the internal control structure of the implementing unit, as well as the IE&rsquo;s comments. 4. The audit report and opinion on the implementing entity&rsquo;s compliance with the terms of the trust fund/credit and legal agreements and applicable laws and regulations related to the Project&#39;s financial activities. 5. An audit report and opinion on the Statement of Requests for Replenishment (IFRs) for the period audited. The Auditor must issue an opinion explicitly covering: (i) the eligibility of the expenditures submitted for replenishment, (ii) the adequacy of the control procedures for preparing the IFRs, and (iii) the correct use of the trust fund and credit funds. 6.

If the report is not acceptable or not fully satisfactory due to deficiencies in the audit work or because the report does not comply with the requirements stated in these TORs or the Guidelines, the auditor shall perform the necessary additional work at no additional cost to the IE, the Project or the Bank. The Bank&#39;s representative may also contact the auditors directly to request any additional information related to any aspect of the audit or the Project financial statements. If the Bank determines the audit report is not fully satisfactory, it will send a letter or e-mail to the implementing entity with suggestions to correct the identified deficiencies, and ask that the Bank be informed of any corrective actions taken.

Down Payments. 13 Introduction The African Union (AU) was established as a unique Pan African continental body, charged with spearheading Africa&rsquo;s rapid integration and sustainable development by promoting unity, solidarity, cohesion and cooperation among the peoples of Africa and African States as well as developing a New Partnership worldwide. Its Headquarters is located in Addis Ababa, capital city of Ethiopia. The African Union Commission (AUC) is the secretariat of the AU, which is the key organ playing a central role in the day-to-day management of the AU. Amongst other mandates, the AUC represents the Union and defends its interests; elaborates draft common positions of the Union; prepares strategic plans and studies for the consideration of the Executive Council; elaborates, promotes, coordinates and harmonizes the programmes and policies of the Union with those of the Regional Economic Commissions (RECs) and ensures the mainstreaming of gender in all programmes and activities of the Union. Project Background In 2008, AUC embarked on automation project and selected the SAP software to bring efficiency, transparency and accountability in business processes and information management. The project went live at the AUC in 2009, and with addition of several modules over the years, the system has since been rolled out to over 45 ROs/LOs and 8 Organs. Currently, AUC runs SAP ERP ECC 6, Enhancement Package Level 7 (EHP7) system having implemented the following key modules; Financial and Controlling (FI/CO) including Fund Management, Treasury Management, Bank Communication Management. Human Resource (Payroll, Time Management, Personnel Administration, Organization Management, & Personnel Development) Material Management (Purchasing and Inventory Management) Travel Management Employee and Manager Self Service Electronic Document Workflow (SAP Document Access solution) Integration with OpenText 10 for Document Archival Integration to SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting system Integration with SAP Governance, Risk & Compliance system (GRC) for user management Interface with other in-house applications e.g. Medical System, AMERT, The diagram below depicts the current SAP landscape alongside AUC&rsquo;s vision by 2026/2027. Despite the numerous strides made with the implementation of the modules above, the current system has some gaps and challenges in terms of system utility, process integration, data issues, reporting and inflexibility to some needs of the organization. In cognizance of these gaps and in seeking to fully leverage the use of SAP within the Commission, there is therefore need to enhance/upgrade the ERP to a more robust system that will better meet the current and future needs. To date, the approach to automation at the AUC has focused on the implementation of point solutions that do not adequately address the present needs of AU Business Units, ROs and Policy Organs as a whole. The solutions provided have essentially automated the existing manual processes rather than follow best practices. Lack of funds to adopt new SAP technologies has led to heavy customization of processes such as travel, financial management and reporting thus restricting the value that SAP can provide. Further, inadequate capacity building has rendered the ERP unit as a fire-fighter on day-to-day business support rather than the unit focusing on innovation to provide new solutions. There is great potential to maximize utility of SAP through varied and targeted training of both business users and the ERP team members. AU CURRENT PAINS AND GAPS The AU has deployed the SAP Travel Management Module without the DSA calculation component resulting in DSA being manually calculated by excel by the respective payment processing Division of the Directorate of Finance. The same also affects the imprest retirement process. SAP users are not able to generate financial statements from SAP system. SAP users want the budget execution report to be reviewed and enhanced. SAP users are creating manual reports in excel. Fund availability is being done manually by all Departments. MERITS OF IMPLEMENTING REQUIRED FUNCTIONALITY Efficient DSA calculation process thereby reducing the risks resulting from human errors Timely retirements of imprests. Accurate Financial statements generated from SAP without any manual intervention by users. Efficient fund availability approval process. OBJECTIVE OF THE SERVICE The objective of the assignment is to implement the functionality (Section 4) mentioned above. To achieve the stated objective, AUC wishes to engage the services of a consultant to work with the Commission to develop and implement the required functionality. SCOPE OF SERVICES AND TASKS The expected scope of services and tasks will be as follows: - Establish High level requirements through stakeholders&rsquo; consultations and come up with a Business Requirement Document. Develop a Financial statement template in SAP to allow users to download financial statements from the system. Review and Implement SAP Travel Management standard DSA calculation functionality based on the requirements.

Its Headquarters is located in Addis Ababa, capital city of Ethiopia.\nThe African Union Commission (AUC) is the secretariat of the AU, which is the key organ playing a central role in the day-to-day management of the AU.  Amongst other mandates, the AUC represents the Union and defends its interests; elaborates draft common positions of the Union; prepares strategic plans and studies for the consideration of the Executive Council; elaborates, promotes, coordinates and harmonizes the programmes and policies of the Union with those of the Regional Economic Commissions (RECs) and ensures the mainstreaming of gender in all programmes and activities of the Union.\nProject Background\nIn 2008, AUC embarked on automation project and selected the SAP software to bring efficiency, transparency and accountability in business processes and information management. The project went live at the AUC in 2009, and with addition of several modules over the years, the system has since been rolled out to over 45 ROs/LOs and 8 Organs.\nCurrently, AUC runs SAP ERP ECC 6, Enhancement Package Level 7 (EHP7) system having implemented the following key modules;\nFinancial and Controlling (FI/CO) including Fund Management, Treasury Management, Bank Communication Management.\nHuman Resource (Payroll, Time Management, Personnel Administration, Organization Management, & Personnel Development)\nMaterial Management (Purchasing and Inventory Management)\nTravel Management\nEmployee and Manager Self Service\nElectronic Document Workflow (SAP Document Access solution)\nIntegration with OpenText 10 for Document Archival\nIntegration to SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting system\nIntegration with SAP Governance, Risk & Compliance system (GRC) for user management\nInterface with other in-house applications e.g. Medical System, AMERT,\nThe diagram below depicts the current SAP landscape alongside AUC’s vision by 2026/2027.\nDespite the numerous strides made with the implementation of the modules above, the current system has some gaps and challenges in terms of system utility, process integration, data issues, reporting and inflexibility to some needs of the organization.  In cognizance of these gaps and in seeking to fully leverage the use of SAP within the Commission, there is therefore need to enhance/upgrade the ERP to a more robust system that will better meet the current and future needs.\nTo date, the approach to automation at the AUC has focused on the implementation of point solutions that do not adequately address the present needs of AU Business Units, ROs and Policy Organs as a whole. The solutions provided have essentially automated the existing manual processes rather than follow best practices.  Lack of funds to adopt new SAP technologies has led to heavy customization of processes such as travel, financial management and reporting thus restricting the value that SAP can provide. Further, inadequate capacity building has rendered the ERP unit as a fire-fighter on day-to-day business support rather than the unit focusing on innovation to provide new solutions. There is great potential to maximize utility of SAP through varied and targeted training of both business users and the ERP team members.\nAU CURRENT PAINS AND GAPS\nThe AU has deployed the SAP Travel Management Module without the DSA calculation component resulting in DSA being manually calculated by excel by the respective payment processing Division of the Directorate of Finance.  The same also affects the imprest retirement process.  SAP users are not able to generate financial statements from SAP system.  SAP users want the budget execution report to be reviewed and enhanced. SAP users are creating manual reports in excel.  Fund availability is being done manually by all Departments.\nMERITS OF IMPLEMENTING REQUIRED FUNCTIONALITY\nEfficient DSA calculation process thereby reducing the risks resulting from human errors\nTimely retirements of imprests.\nAccurate Financial statements generated from SAP without any manual intervention by users.\nEfficient fund availability approval process.\nOBJECTIVE OF THE SERVICE\nThe objective of the assignment is to implement the functionality (Section 4) mentioned above.  To achieve the stated objective, AUC wishes to engage the services of a consultant to work with the Commission to develop and implement the required functionality.\nSCOPE OF SERVICES AND TASKS\nThe expected scope of services and tasks will be as follows: -\nEstablish High level requirements through stakeholders’ consultations and come up with a Business Requirement Document.\nDevelop a Financial statement template in SAP to allow users to download financial statements from the system.\nReview and Implement SAP Travel Management standard DSA calculation functionality based on the requirements.\nAutomation of Fund availability process and ensuring commitment is done at the initial stage\nMake changes to the budget execution report as per business requirements.\nDevelop urgent PBFA reports as per business requirements.\nPreparation of Test scripts for Unit and Integration Testing.\nLead Business users in Unit and Integration Testing.\nPreparation of User Guides, Test Scripts (Unit/Integration), Configuration and Technical documentation.\nConduct and coordinate Super Users and business users training.\nConduct and Lead / Guide Cut-over activities before Go-live of Travel Management DSA calculation functionality.\nConduct Training / Knowledge transfer / Hand Over to the in-house SAP Technical Team.\nDELIVERABLES FOR THE ASSIGNMENT\nThe deliverables for this engagement will include:\nBusiness
