The AIDFI ram pump continues its technical development and innovation but as with every small enterprise that outgrows its operation and the technology gap that has widened significantly over the years. The work that is done is a tremendous achievement on a microscopic level but that is because it is hardly noticed only through awards and word of mouth.
Recently, AIDFI has caught up a bit with the current technology trends in providing better and faster projects to the communities. In order to close the gap even further, there is a need to look at improving the current operational side of the organization and one thing AIDFI has a lot which is data.
We are looking for a technology expert who can develop databases and systems to provide a portal for the organization, communities and donors/partners to communicate with each other through the data available. This will help supervisors analyze and make swift decisions on the data inputted.
Deliverables

Develop a web portal where data gathered and inputted can be accessed by the organization, communities, and donors/partners. The expert shall lead the development but only guide and assist in the processes/systems. Local capacity building is therefore also seen as one of your key tasks. The management shall approve any recommendations provided.
