The Government of Grenada has received financing from the World Bank toward the cost of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) Skills & Innovation Project (SKIP), and intends to apply part of the proceeds for consulting services.

The consulting services (“the Services”) include a technical capacity assessment of the Grenada Investment Development Corporation (GIDC) – Business Development Centre (BDC)1 to identify gaps in fiduciary and innovation-specific technical capacity necessary for the effective management of the competitive matching grants under the OECS SKIP. Based on the findings, the consultancy will develop an action plan outlining measures to build the required capacity, including recommendations for funding additional required staff and necessary training. In addition, the Consultancy should provide other necessary implementation support for capacity building activities for the GIDC related to grants management under OECS SKIP, including setting up systems, processes and procedures and potentially training for existing or recruited staff. The consulting firm will be engaged for a period of ten (10) weeks and is expected to commence duties in August 2026.
