Project background A- Brief about GIZ The wide range of services offered by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH are based on a wealth of regional and technical expertise and on tried and tested management know-how. GIZ is a German federal enterprise that offers workable, sustainable and effective solutions in political, economic and social change processes. Most of GIZ s work is commissioned by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ). However, GIZ also operates on behalf of other German ministries and public and private bodies in Germany and abroad. These include governments of other countries, the European Commission, the United Nations and the World Bank. GIZ is equally committed to helping its clients in the private sector attain their goals. B- Brief about GIZ Egypt Since 1956 GIZ has been present in Egypt implementing projects on behalf of the German government. GIZ Egypt thus contributes to the economic and social stabilization of the country. GIZ Egypt currently employs around 210 national and 50 international experts. Its programmes, implemented in cooperation with the Egyptian government, focus on the areas of renewable energies and energy efficiency, sustainable economic development for employment, water supply and sanitation, irrigation and waste management, youth, women and families and urban development (See also http://www.giz.de/en/worldwide/319.html) C- Brief about the Promotion of Small and Medium Enterprises (PSME) On behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Egyptian- German Promotion of Small and Medium Enterprises (PSME) is a bilateral technical cooperation project under the guidance of the Egyptian Ministry for Trade and Industry (MTI) with Technical Assistance provided by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH. It was established in March 2015 with duration of five years and is building on the results and experiences from a former similar project in this field. The project objective is to improve the prerequisites for manufacturing MSMEs and their suppliers to increase their competitiveness and create jobs. Adopting the integrated employment promotion approach, the project will aim at creating productive and decent employment through more competitive MSMEs and start-ups and by improving the framework for innovation. It will place a special focus on the innovative capability and economic potential of the manufacturing industry and its suppliers by promoting inclusive business models and inclusive businesses as a pioneering approach. The project is implemented in three fields of activity: (i) Policy Advisory for employmentoriented innovation policy for industrial development; (ii) Business Innovation for promoting innovative business solutions; and (iii) Industrial Business services for strengthening key actors for industrial development. It will adopt a multilevel approach, addressing the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI), private sector institutions, Egypt, ToR for a Senior International Expert for Designing and Prototyping an Induction Motor in Egypt Page 1 of 5
business development service providers and technology innovation business centers. It will also provide its services outside of Cairo and Alexandria, particularly in Upper Egypt (including Sohag Governorate). D- Brief about GOPA GOPA Consultants can look back on 50 years of consultancy experience and has implemented more than 3,000 projects in around 150 countries. It has established an impressive track record with contracts financed by the European Union (EU), the German Development Co-operation (GIZ), the World Bank (WB), the Asian Development Bank (ADB) as well as the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC). GOPA's success is mainly attributable to its policy of upholding the principles of integrity, quality, political impartiality and social responsibility. The company is a member of Transparency International, a non-governmental organization devoted to combating corruption. Furthermore, GOPA has implemented and is applying a quality management system, which meets the requirements of the DIN EN ISO 9001:2008 standard. E- Brief about the Industrial Business services (IBS) The IBS activity field is implemented by GOPA on behalf of GIZ. IBS aims to improve the public SME support system in particularly Business Services in selected sectors (e.g. Food Processing and Engineering Industries) and industrial zones. This is one of the prerequisites needed for SMEs and their suppliers to increase their competitiveness grow and create jobs, which will finally lead to an increased share of locally manufactured goods in the Egyptian market. This approach enhances the transparency of the business services market and contributes to achieving high quality standards of the services offered and implemented. In order to meet the demands of private sector enterprises, close collaboration between IBS and project partners, such as Business Services Facilitating Institutions who support the market development of business services, and Service Providers who deliver business services to the SMEs, helps to focus on the real demand of the industry for business services. A Customer Relationship Management (CRM) Methodology and System will be used as a central match-making mechanism between business services facilitating institutions, professional service providers and SMEs. IBS applies a market driven and institutional approach methodology to deliver industrial business services to a large cross section of industrial and service sectors in Egypt, and IBS supports state-of-the-art delivery mechanisms of industrial business services. The geographical focus will be on Greater Cairo and Alexandria with the intention of expanding to Upper Egypt. In line with international trends, service providers will benefit from business services capacity development in economic, social and ecological areas and they will be enabled to expand their service portfolio toward sustainable economic development. Special emphasis is put on services which contribute to increasing the innovation capacity and competitiveness of SMEs.
