Request for Expression of Interest (Consultancy in Starch Production)

BUSINESS MODEL CONSULTANCY
TAPIOCA STARCH FACTORY & CASSAVA FARMERS PARTNERSHIP

A. Background and Requestor

Most Asian countries succeeded in multiplying major cereal production through the `Green Revolution'. This was made possible by the introduction of high yielding varieties and policy support which promoted the construction of irrigation facilities and the use of modern inputs such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides. However, up until now almost all institutional support in food crop production in Indonesia has been directed at rice production to attain rice self-sufficiently. Consequently, the food crop diversification index has dropped and rice is the only specialized crop in all provinces of Indonesia.

The key to cassava's future in global and domestic starch markets will be improvements in efficiency and quality, and a reduction in production costs. For a model of successful cassava starch industry development, we need to look no further than Thailand, the world's No. 1 producer. The Thai industry began more than 50 years ago, and expanded rapidly during the 1990s, when trade restrictions sharply reduced the European market for Thai dried cassava chips, used as animal feed. The price of industrial-grade starch on the global market has risen from just over USD200 in the early 2000s to USD555 today, and it is highly unlikely to fall back down to previous levels. Therefore, the opportunities to expand industrialization of starch production are great, and though Indonesia's exports were surpassed by Thailand, the potential of cassava product exports is still large, which is shown by the lower DRC (Domestic Resource Cost) in the starch making process, indicating a comparative advantage in the world market (Nelson, 1984).

More than 50% of starch in Indonesia is produced on Sumatera Island, with the majority of that being produced in Lampung. However, throughout Sumatera, farmers are converting to palm oil wherever possible, including Lampung, due to the higher price and more stable market for palm fruit than cassava.

APRIL has been working with a local investor to establish a stronger base for industrial grade starch requirements for APRIL's paper mill located in Riau Province. This is intended to be achieved by the
establishment of an industrial-grade starch factory in Riau Province that implements a viable, sustainable social business model which creates a mutually beneficial partnership between farmers and an industrial grade starch mill. The aim of the project is not only to support the pulp and paper mill of APRIL in diversifying and strengthening local supply of industrial-grade starch, but also to support the sustainable economic improvement of farmers that will be providing cassava to the starch mill, while ensuring both farming and mill practices are environmentally sound.

B. Objectives

The broad objective of this consultancy is to conduct a quick assessment and to produce a report on cassava agribusiness systems for the tapioca industrial-grade starch industry in Indonesia with taking into account the relevant global contexts and to develop social business model options to guide the successful establishment of industrial-grade tapioca starch production in partnership with local farmers in the province of Riau to support the pulp and paper industry in this province. Potential locations and partners have been identified in a specific location in Riau Province.

C. Outputs

1. Provide a strategy related to mill and cassava production to improve the welfare of the farmers.

2. Present a technical plan and process for its development and implementation to assist farmers develop high yields and quality. This plan and its implementation is to include processes to improve on-farm productivity and profitability in line with the livelihoods of the farmers and maintain short and long term environmental sustainability.

Technical Supervisor - Deployee Support Services for Indonesia (DSSI)

Indonesia nationals are encouraged to apply for this position.

Austraining International is a specialist project management and international development organisation managing bilateral and multilateral projects throughout Asia, the Pacific, Africa and the Middle East.

We are now seeking expression of interest for the position of In-Indonesia Technical Supervisor for AusAID’s Deployee Support Services for Indonesia (DSSI).

The Technical Supervisor will play a key role in monitoring and managing the quality and effectiveness of services provided. The role will be field based, requiring the person to travel regularly to the Deployee properties and to the local sub-contracted organisations.

The Technical Supervisor will have a strong background in building or building maintenance and also a broad understanding of the basic services that support domestic accommodation, including security services, water and power supplies; security requirements, plumbing and other building services; air-conditioning; basic structural repair techniques.

The Technical Supervisor will play a role in communicating with the Deployee (i.e. potentially in their homes in respect to a service request) and then identifying what the problems are, through looking at what options are available for the required repair or improvement; contacting the property owner, then supervising the finished work for completeness and correct operation.

Where appropriate the Technical Supervisor may well fix the problem at the time, based on identifying the fault and making the required repair or adjustment or engage a suitably qualified contractor for the purpose. However, it will be more likely that the Technical Supervisor will identify the fault and then contact the property owner to inform them that repairs are necessary and what work will be required to ensure that the problem is solved.

Should the work be undertaken by a subcontractor, the Technical Supervisor will ensure that the organisation that provides these services completes the work within the required quality and time parameters.

The Technical Supervisor will monitor the work of sub-contractors as well as the conditions under which the sub-contractor staff assigned to DSSI activities work. This monitoring aspect of the position will especially focus on the use of reputable subcontractors who adhere to local labour conditions. Reputable subcontractors should also make sure staff have been provided with the correct tools and safety equipment for the work and that the number of call backs to complete a single job is minimised.

The Technical Supervisor will:
