Management of International Technical Assistance Teams and Knowledge Transfer in Kigali

培训项目概述

Managing international technical assistance requires rigorous governance, clear procurement alignment, and intentional institutional capacity building. Executing agencies and Project Implementation Units (PIUs) frequently deploy external advisory teams under multilateral funding frameworks. However, without structured contract management and robust absorption systems, investments risk creating operational dependencies rather than durable public sector capability. This three-day executive programme in Kigali equips public managers with practical systems to supervise, monitor, and extract strategic value from international consultancies.

Delegates will examine the lifecycle of technical assistance operations, from precision structuring of Terms of Reference (ToRs) to final contract closeout. The curriculum covers fiduciary governance, delivery-linked payment frameworks, and active performance supervision under standard multilateral development bank regulations. Emphasis is placed on managing the complex relationship between external technical specialists and national counterparts, ensuring that consultant activities align directly with national institutional mandates and project development objectives.

A central component of the workshop focuses on sustainable skills transmission and institutional memory preservation. Participants will develop operational frameworks for counterpart twinning, intellectual property retention, and structured workflow handover. By examining real-world delivery instruments, public sector leaders will leave prepared to enforce accountability, manage professional performance, and embed knowledge directly into civil service structures before the conclusion of technical assistance assignments.

Public agencies across West Africa, including in Benin, are deploying significant international advisory support funded through multilateral lenders, as illustrated by recent operations requiring international technical assistance teams for large-scale institutional modernisation. The success of these operations depends on the procuring agency's ability to direct external expertise, enforce contractual milestones, and safeguard technical transfer rather than relying indefinitely on external delivery systems. Strengthening counterpart oversight and knowledge retention is essential to ensure donor-financed reforms build lasting sovereign administrative capacity.

本培训项目由Risalat Consultants International在卢旺达基加利举办，结合专家主讲、真实案例与小组练习，帮助学员将所学应用于本单位工作。
