Company Profile:

The Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH is a leading provider of services in international cooperation and global education. As a non-profit federal enterprise, GIZ supports the German government, especially the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), as well as numerous public and private clients worldwide in achieving their goals in international cooperation for sustainable development.

Expertise and Fields of Activity:
With over 50 years of experience in various fields, including economic and employment promotion, energy and environmental issues, as well as the promotion of peace and security, GIZ flexibly works on effective solutions that offer people perspectives and sustainably improve their living conditions. The diverse expertise of GIZ is in demand worldwide from the German government, the European Union, the United Nations, private sector, and governments of other countries. The main client of GIZ is the German Government.

Global Presence and Employee Structure:
GIZ is active in more than 120 countries and is headquartered in Bonn and Eschborn/Germany. GIZ's business volume amounted to approximately four billion euros as of December 31, 2024.

Public Relations of GIZ:
Conveying GIZ's work to the public requires preparing complex matters in an understandable and comprehensible way for various media and channels. GIZ's corporate communication is supported by experienced PR consultants and service providers to ensure high-quality and coherent publications across different media. Project descriptions (PKBs) are published for almost all GIZ projects and can be found on the country and regional pages at giz.de under the menu item Where we work. Currently, there are about 1,800 of these descriptions, with approximately 1,300 for ongoing projects. PKBs are published in GIZ's corporate languages German and English, and sometimes in other languages.

Additional Information:
PKBs are also supplied to the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) during the offer process and are made available by BMZ to the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI). These texts serve to inform the public, ensure transparency within and outside Germany, and provide accountability.

Tasks of the Contractor: 
Editing and Content Management of Project Descriptions 
PKBs are usually pre-written by the project managers at GIZ and edited by the contractor. Annually, up to 800 PKBs are created or revised, with fluctuations in the total number and distribution throughout the year.</cbc:Description>

			<cbc:Name languageID="DEU">Redaktion und Content Management Projektkurzbeschreibungen für die GIZ</cbc:Name>
			<cbc:Description languageID="DEU">Conveying GIZ's work to the public requires preparing complex matters in an understandable and comprehensible way for various media and channels. GIZ's corporate communication is supported by experienced PR consultants and service providers to ensure high-quality and coherent publications across different media. Project descriptions (PKBs) are published for almost all GIZ projects and can be found on the country and regional pages at giz.de under the menu item Where we work. Currently, there are about 1,800 of these descriptions, with approximately 1,300 for ongoing projects. PKBs are published in GIZ's corporate languages German and English, and sometimes in other languages.

Additional Information:
PKBs are also supplied to the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) during the offer process and are made available by BMZ to the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI). These texts serve to inform the public, ensure transparency within and outside Germany, and provide accountability.

Tasks of the Contractor: 
Editing and Content Management of Project Descriptions:

PKBs are usually pre-written by the project managers at GIZ and edited by the contractor. Annually, up to 800 PKBs are created or revised, with fluctuations in the total number and distribution throughout the year.
Editing of Project Descriptions 
The initial texts submitted by the projects are typically in German, with up to 30% in English. The contractor edits the PKBs according to GIZ guidelines, coordinates the edited texts with the respective project managers, finalizes the texts, and obtains approval from the project managers.

Translation:
The contractor commissions the translation of finalized German PKBs into English using the GIZ tool Plunet. The contractor also translates approved English PKBs into German.

Content Management:
The contractor transmits the finished translated PKBs in all language versions to the projects, which upload the texts into the GIZ internal project processing system (PBS) for publication. Upon publication, a project page is automatically created on giz.de. The contractor then adds metadata, images, downloads, and other information desired by the project to the project page using GIZ's content management system (Drupal).</cbc:Description>
