Though tender was announced per initial plan (in summer). However, there was no qualified company identified and the project had to re-announce the tender, which prolonged selection process. Second announcement has rendered results and the company was identified. Currently the project is in the process of recruiting the company. Besides, the the project is joint and apart from UNDP there are 2 more UN agencies involved (UNW, UNFPA), and all decisions need to be agreed by 3 parties, this additionally required more time than only UNDP evaluation would do. Considering the above, the date for submission is postponed to April 2019.
