  and the National Identification Agency, among others. [2 weeks]
• Once these objectives are agreed,
  confirm/determine [2 months]:
  a.The desirability of a unified social protection registry, if the Ubudehe
  database will serve as the basis to build this registry and which programs
  will use the registry. The consultant should consult with MHS on their
  activities on the Ubudehe database, as well as VUP and MINALOC.
  b.Which programs and systems will be harmonized to the full SP MIS (core
  programs) and which will link to the MIS (related programs). This should
  include not only an assessment of programs and processes included in the
  original analysis, but additional ones that were overlooked, such as
  disaster management and the M&E function of the system.

  and related programs and which will be included in the SP MIS and which will
  not.
  d.How the SP MIS will (or will not) eventually connect to the full system
  landscape in Rwanda, such as the national ID, banking, and pensions.

  detailed roadmap for SP MIS development in Rwanda. The roadmap would be
  based on the existing analysis and design that has been already done and

  timeline for each component [1 month]. To develop the roadmap the
  consultant will:
  a.Review the existing MISs in the Rwanda Demobilization and Reintegration
  Commission (RDRC) and the FARG, and the monitoring and evaluation database
  currently being developed for the RSDLF. Consider how/whether the RLDSF
  database can link to a social protection MIS
• Consult with key MIS stakeholders, including
  staff from all SP programs, the national ID office, DFID, UNICEF, KfW, and
  the World Bank, and review existing information management practices of
  all SP programs, to prioritize which modules in the original analysis document
  should be designed first and how to proceed with the rollout of an MIS
  within the SP.
  c.Cost each phase of the roadmap and identify sources of funding where
  possible.
• Develop the logical data model and functional
  specifications for the first stages of the SP MIS roadmap. [3 months]

  ministries implementing social protection programs, MIS experts, donors
  including the World Bank team, DFID, and UNICEF; coordinate single
