Scope of Work

Policy Reform Manager

Background


The purpose of the USAID Improving Private Sector Competitiveness (IPSC) ("the Project") is to remove constraints and build the competitiveness of small and growing businesses (SGBs) in Vietnam, including those led by vulnerable populations.


With this Project, USAID/Vietnam is supporting Vietnam's competitiveness:

vertically at the policy, market and firm level; and horizontally by working along the entire spectrum of enterprise growth models, from household businesses transforming into registered firms to small firms on the cusp of scaling up.

Deloitte Consulting LLP ("Deloitte") is implementing this Project on behalf of USAID.

The Agency for Enterprise Development (AED) of the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) is the Vietnam Government counterpart of IPSC.

The Project is made up of four interrelated Objectives[1]:


  • Objective 1. Building business management capacity of SGBs, including those led by vulnerable populations (particularly women and ethnic minorities).
-
Objective 2. Improving efficiency and productivity by promoting innovation, technology adoption, and sustainable business models.
-
Objective 3. Enhancing business enabling environment for a broad-based inclusive economy (BEE).
-
Objective 4. Strengthening business-to-business (B2B) and cross-sectoral linkages.

Summary of Activities


Objective 3 is aimed at supporting the Government of Vietnam (GVN) in improving the business environment, focusing on advocating reforms that facilitate improving regulatory effectiveness, adopting methodologies and tools that increase efficiency, increasing the quality of Public-Private Dialogue (PPD), and reducing the compliance burden on businesses to maximize the potential growth of SGBs.


The PolicyReform Manager will primarily manage implementation of activities that support business environment reforms and ensure the quality of the Project's technical assistance within those assigned activities, including proposing policy reforms and managing a mechanism of engaging SMEs in policy activities.


The Policy Reform Manager will also manage implementation and ensure quality of IPSC's activities to improve the capacity of business associations in policy advocacy and business development services (BDS).

The activities promote and sustain cooperation and business development services among the public and non-public BSOs to improve private sector competitiveness.

The Policy Reform Manager is responsible for planning, organizing, training, monitoring, and reporting on the BSO capacity building activities in collaboration with other IPSC members and stakeholders.
