NRC as part of the Logistics Working Group in Colombia has proposed an intervention focused on seeking efficiencies, improving accountability, and increasing the effectiveness of humanitarian response when INGOs and NNGOs purchase goods and services in the Colombian market through the creation of a national platform for NGOs and suppliers. This platform would be replicable at the regional level. The platform should respond to the needs of the participating organizations and develop capacities of the organizations themselves and their local partners, so that users (organizations and suppliers) find in it a reliable opportunity to obtain better and varied offers from the local market. In this way, the project aims to achieve efficiency in the allocation of resources by increasing the availability of aid for the population in need of humanitarian aid, improving accountability and mitigating corruption risks.

The Project Manager for the Development and Implementation of an information system for INGOs and NGOs and their suppliers to improve the effectiveness, efficiency and accountability of humanitarian logistics processes in Colombia will assume a leadership role in shaping and coordinating the strategic direction of the project. This person, along with the technical committee of the participating organizations, will work closely with the Logistics managers, ensuring that the project reflects the strategic perspective and resonates with all INGOs and NNGOs. The right candidate will have a balance of structured thinking, documentation skills and ability to facilitate collaborative planning processes that incorporate input from others. The position will also be required to provide support in the preparation of new Logistics projects as needed.
