Overview
The Liberia Revenue Authority is implementing a nationwide VAT implementation and awareness program, and requires a consulting firm to conduct surveys to measure progress. The program aims to achieve at least 70 percent taxpayer awareness of VAT obligations and at least 70 percent business readiness to comply by December 2026.
Scope of Work
The consulting services will include the design, implementation, analysis and reporting of four survey rounds covering VAT awareness and business readiness. The assignment will include: - A nationwide Baseline VAT Awareness and Readiness Survey covering approximately 1,500 respondents across Liberia's fifteen counties; - A Midline VAT Awareness and Readiness Survey covering approximately 800 respondents; - A nationwide Endline VAT Awareness and Readiness Survey covering approximately 1,500 respondents; and - A Post-Launch VAT Survey and Outcome Assessment covering approximately 1,000 respondents. The consulting firm will be responsible for, among other activities, developing the survey methodology and sampling strategy; developing and piloting survey instruments; undertaking field data collection; implementing quality assurance procedures; cleaning, validating and analyzing survey data; measuring changes in taxpayer awareness and business readiness across survey rounds; assessing the reach and effectiveness of the VAT awareness campaign; and preparing the required survey reports, datasets, codebooks and analytical documentation. The four survey rounds will be undertaken under a single consultancy assignment to ensure consistency in the survey methodology, core instruments, sampling approach, indicator definitions and analytical framework and to enable reliable comparison of results over time.
