Description

WWF Myanmar is looking for a technology company or consultant to develop a web-based sustainable natural rubber traceability tool based on the requirement specifications in the ToR
The scope of the traceability system is limited to growers, collection centers and processing factories for one product only (latex). About 3000 smallholders are expected to be on-board. A total of about 12-15 handheld devices (or accounts) will be used to capture all the registration level data as well as the transaction level data. A total of 2-3 desktop accounts will be required to analyse and verify data. This pilot will be implemented on the ground with the members of Tanintharyi Rubber Planters and Producers Association. One of its members has already agreed to test pilot this tool while two more members have expressed interest. It is expected that at least 1 large factory, 4 collection centers and 500 farmers will be covered in the first year and another 5 collection centres and 2500 farmers will be covered in the second year. The consultant is expected to develop software as a product or adapt existing software platform as a service (preferred) to trace natural rubber supply chain.
