Global Media Monitoring, Social Listening & Analysis

Description

UNICEF has now issued a Request for Proposals in order to select a supplier for the provision of Global Media Monitoring, Social Listening & Analysis. Online news and social media are key channels through which UNICEF can convey its messages to meet strategic goals in communication, advocacy and private sector engagement and fundraising. It is thus critical for UNICEF to monitor and evaluate its performance in these channels on certain Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) relating to its communication coverage in priority countries. As well as media performance tracking, UNICEF's communication and fundraising directors have regular need for media insights on key themes, audience sentiment and/or corporate image to optimize their communication and fundraising plans and activities. The purpose of this Request for Proposal for Services (RFPS) is to seek proposals from qualified vendors and to establish Long Term Arrangement (s) for Services (LTA-S) to provide solutions for media monitoring, social listening, and analytical reporting. The LTAS shall be valid for an initial period of up to 3 years, with potential extension for 2 additional periods of 1 year each (3+1+1 years) at the discretion of UNICEF and subject to satisfactory performance and UNICEF’s needs.
