 Background Information – Job-specific
Background Information – Kenya Multi Country Office (KEMC)Located in Nairobi, Kenya, the Kenya Multi Country Office manages a growing portfolio of engagements, including associated strategic and operational risks. The KEMC sub-region currently consists of an established Operation Centre in Nairobi/Kenya which manages a portfolio of engagements in multiple countries in East and South Africa. This includes primarily transactional projects in partnership with the Nairobi based UN Agencies, UN-Habitat and UNEP, and multiple ‘operational’ projects in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and several island states.

Background Information – Job-specificThe Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) of the US Department of State is actively engaged in Kenya’s efforts to professionalize its national police service. INL supports three Kenyan entities (henceforth, the Entities) whose mandate is to bolster police accountability, through operational and technical assistance to the Internal Affairs Unit (IAU) of the National Police Service, the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA), and the National Police Service Commission (NPSC). The latter two bodies are civilian-staffed and provide external oversight of the police.

INL, in collaboration with UNOPS, IPOA, and an external vendor, has identified requirements for enhancements to the existing Case Management System (CMS) and implementation of a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system that will require engineering and technical services in support of networks, communication systems, applications and information systems that are currently operational, under development, requiring upgrades or theoretical.
