This update is to alert all UNDP COs and BUs that the I-PSA and the N-PSA will replace all international and local ICs as of 31 March 2022 (extended from 31 December 2021), except those which are of lumpsum deliverable-based arrangements. After this date, the use of ICs will be restricted to lump-sum deliverable-based arrangements only. However, the IC policy is still available in its current form, covering both daily and lump-sum based ICs; for use by all other UN Agencies until 31 December 2022. |
