Qualifications
Payment Rate and Schedule:
[Note the level of the person is what will count. In this situation we only need an IT literate manager and there will be in-country support from the overall Digitization role, plus from the MEAL Specialist. Therefore we should take the Manager salary plus 20% to align to the other digitization role and divide it by the number of days. If there is money left we can have the flexibility to extend the duration if necessary. The 20% can be paid on after quality check and sign-off by IRC of the a) digitized data collection tools in CommCare, b) Excel metadata for the Power Bi indicator dashboard. The rest of the salary paid monthly.
