</div><div>Digital transformation is a critical enabler of inclusive growth, institutional effectiveness, resilience and sustainable development in Least Developed Countries (LDCs). Governments increasingly rely on digital technologies to enhance public service delivery, improve policy coherence, strengthen transparency and accountability, and enable innovation across the economy. However, progress remains uneven, with persistent gaps in connectivity, digital skills, institutional coordination, data governance and cybersecurity. LDCs in Asia such as Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Nepal have made notable gains in digital infrastructure and connectivity, with internet penetration surpassing 50%, well above the LDC average of 34%. These advancements underscore growing readiness across the region to harness digital technologies for development. At the same time, the rapid pace of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and increasing demand for Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) underscore the urgency for LDCs to strengthen institutional frameworks and leverage technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and the Internet of Things (IoT). These tools offer transformative potential, including AI for adaptive social protection systems, blockchain for transparent land registries, and IoT for boosting agricultural productivity and resource efficiency. Strategically deployed, such technologies can modernize public service delivery and foster more responsive and resilient governance. The UN Technology Bank for the LDCs (UNTB) in partnership with the United Nations Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States (UN-OHRLLS) is implementing a three-year project entitled &ldquo;Promoting Digital Transformation of Selected Asian LDCs for a Sustainable and Resilient Future&rdquo;. The project covers Cambodia, Lao PDR, Nepal and Timor-Leste. Using a whole-of-government approach, this project aims to contribute towards addressing systemic barriers by providing targeted support to national strategies, inclusive digital ecosystems, and regional knowledge cooperation. It builds on the work of the UN system, which have supported digital transformation efforts in the selected LDCs. The present TORs are for conducting a digital readiness assessment in Nepal, using a whole-of-government methodology and informed by initial national-level stakeholder engagement and consultations. The assessment will be developed in collaboration with an international consultant, who will support the development of Readiness Assessments in the four implementing countries. Roles and responsibilities between the National and International Consultants will be clearly delineated and further elaborated in the respective Inception Reports. The digital readiness assessments will provide an in-depth analysis of Nepal&rsquo;s current digital ecosystem, assessing the status and identifying gaps across key dimensions such as digital infrastructure, governance frameworks, institutional capacity, human capital and digital skills, data ecosystem and integration and responsible use of emerging technologies. The assessment will serve as a foundational evidence base to inform subsequent project outputs. Key documents for review will include national plans and policies, as well as the UNSDCF and relevant planning documents from UN agencies and other relevant partners, to ensure work proceeds in close alignment with existing planning. As part of the project, a national workshop will be held at the beginning of the project, in each implementing country, taking place at the same time as this consultancy. This will bring together representatives from a broad range of government ministries with the aim to provide inputs on the current state of digitalization, outline strengths and gaps at the national level, and inform the development of the forthcoming digitalization toolkit, regional trainings, and further support provided through this project. The international consultant will be expected to participate virtually in these workshops, with the national consultant engaging in-person. Together, the international and national consultants will be expected to extract information provided during these workshops, applied to the development of the readiness assessment, to ensure the Readiness Assessment aligns to the national priorities highlighted during the workshops. Purpose and Scope of Assignment The project aims to support whole-of-government digital transformation through evidence-based diagnostics, policy support, capacity development, and stakeholder engagement. As an initial phase, the project will undertake a comprehensive Digital Maturity / Digital Readiness Assessment of government ministries and public institutions in Nepal. The assessment will provide a structured diagnostic of current digital capabilities, identify systemic gaps and constraints, and inform the prioritized national digital transformation roadmap aligned with national development objectives and the Digital Nepal Framework (DNF) including readiness for the governance and integration of emerging technologies. This Digital Readiness Assessment constitutes part of Output 1 of the project and will serve as the analytical foundation for subsequent project activities, including digital strategy dialogue, capacity development, and regional knowledge exchange. The assessment will build on existing diagnostics and be aligned with international good practices and analytical frameworks, in particular the ITU Digital Transformation Wheel, which focuses on three interlinked dimensions of digital development: Access (connectivity and infrastructure), Adoption (institutional, organizational and individual use of digital technologies), and Value Creation (digital public services, data-driven decision-making, innovation and socio-economic impact).

</div><div>Digital transformation is a critical enabler of inclusive growth, institutional effectiveness, resilience and sustainable development in Least Developed Countries (LDCs). Governments increasingly rely on digital technologies to enhance public service delivery, improve policy coherence, strengthen transparency and accountability, and enable innovation across the economy. However, progress remains uneven, with persistent gaps in connectivity, digital skills, institutional coordination, data governance and cybersecurity. LDCs in Asia such as Cambodia, Lao PDR, and Nepal have made notable gains in digital infrastructure and connectivity, with internet penetration surpassing 50%, well above the LDC average of 34%. These advancements underscore growing readiness across the region to harness digital technologies for development. At the same time, the rapid pace of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and increasing demand for Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) underscore the urgency for LDCs to strengthen institutional frameworks and leverage technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), blockchain, and the Internet of Things (IoT). These tools offer transformative potential, including AI for adaptive social protection systems, blockchain for transparent land registries, and IoT for boosting agricultural productivity and resource efficiency. Strategically deployed, such technologies can modernize public service delivery and foster more responsive and resilient governance. The UN Technology Bank for the LDCs (UNTB) in partnership with the United Nations Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States (UN-OHRLLS) is implementing a three-year project entitled &ldquo;Promoting Digital Transformation of Selected Asian LDCs for a Sustainable and Resilient Future&rdquo;. The project covers Cambodia, Lao PDR, Nepal and Timor-Leste. Using a whole-of-government approach, this project aims to contribute towards addressing systemic barriers by providing targeted support to national strategies, inclusive digital ecosystems, and regional knowledge cooperation. It builds on the work of the UN system, which have supported digital transformation efforts in the selected LDCs. The present TORs are for conducting a digital readiness assessment in Timor-Leste, using a whole-of-government methodology and informed by initial national-level stakeholder engagement and consultations. The assessment will be developed in collaboration with an international consultant, who will support the development of Readiness Assessments in the four implementing countries. Roles and responsibilities between the National and International Consultants will be clearly delineated and further elaborated in the respective Inception Reports. The digital readiness assessments will provide an in-depth analysis of Timor-Leste&rsquo;s current digital ecosystem, assessing the status and identifying gaps across key dimensions such as digital infrastructure, governance frameworks, institutional capacity, human capital and digital skills, data ecosystem and integration and responsible use of emerging technologies. The assessment will serve as a foundational evidence base to inform subsequent project outputs. Key documents for review will include national plans and policies, as well as the UNSDCF and relevant planning documents from UN agencies and other relevant partners, to ensure work proceeds in close alignment with existing planning. As part of the project, a national workshop will be held at the beginning of the project, in each implementing country, taking place at the same time as this consultancy. This will bring together representatives from a broad range of government ministries with the aim to provide inputs on the current state of digitalization, outline strengths and gaps at the national level, and inform the development of the forthcoming digitalization toolkit, regional trainings, and further support provided through this project. The international consultant will be expected to participate virtually in these workshops, with the national consultant engaging in-person. Together, the international and national consultants will be expected to extract information provided during these workshops, applied to the development of the readiness assessment, to ensure the Readiness Assessment aligns to the national priorities highlighted during the workshops. Purpose and Scope of Assignment The project aims to support whole-of-government digital transformation through evidence-based diagnostics, policy support, capacity development, and stakeholder engagement. As an initial phase, the project will undertake a comprehensive Digital Maturity / Digital Readiness Assessment of government ministries and public institutions in Timor-Leste. The assessment will provide a structured diagnostic of current digital capabilities, identify systemic gaps and constraints, and inform the prioritized national digital transformation roadmap aligned with national development objectives and Timor-Leste's Digital 2032 strategy including readiness for the governance and integration of emerging technologies. This Digital Readiness Assessment constitutes part of Output 1 of the project and will serve as the analytical foundation for subsequent project activities, including digital strategy dialogue, capacity development, and regional knowledge exchange. The assessment will build on existing diagnostics and be aligned with international good practices and analytical frameworks, in particular the ITU Digital Transformation Wheel, which focuses on three interlinked dimensions of digital development: Access (connectivity and infrastructure), Adoption (institutional, organizational and individual use of digital technologies), and Value Creation (digital public services, data-driven decision-making, innovation and socio-economic impact). The work will also draw on ITU&rsquo;s digital development indicators, the Unified Framework dataset, and relevant UN-OHRLLS and UNTB knowledge products. Under the overall supervision of the UN Technology Bank for LDCs, and in close coordination with UN-OHRLLS, designated counterparts of the Government of Timor-Leste, and in collaboration with the International Consultant, who will provide guidance and oversight to the work at the national level, the National Consultant will perform the following duties: &bull; Prepare the national-level Inception Report, including country-specific stakeholder mapping, data collection plan, contextualization of the agreed methodology to Timor-Leste's context, and a detailed workplan and timeline, in coordination with and under the guidance of the International Consultant; &bull; Conduct a comprehensive desk review of national policies, strategies, implementation plans, laws and regulations related to digital government, ICT, digital economy and public sector modernization, in collaboration with the International Consultant.
