**Responsibilities**:
The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is the leading global environmental authority that sets the global environmental agenda, promotes the coherent implementation of the environmental dimension of sustainable development within the United Nations system and serves as an authoritative advocate for the global environment. The UNEP Latin America and the Caribbean Office (LAC Office), located in Panama City, works closely with the 33 countries of the region and its activities are integrated into the Medium-Term Strategy and the Programme of Work approved by the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA).

One of the objectives is to make all relevant information regarding environmental management processes available to the public and users of MADES services, among other things, through the Environmental Information System (SIAM for its acronym in Spanish), an online portal created in 2019. Through the SIAM, information related to legal procedures and the situation of forests certified for environmental services are made available in an orderly, quality, complete, and easily accessible manner. It is designed to improve, streamline, and make transparent all services provided by the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development. Additionally, the SIAM generates and provides information that contributes to fulfilling the commitments assumed by the country in the International Conventions. The SIAM also enables the interface for the digitization of procedures and continuous exchange of information between the institutions involved and forest certification processes. It is a management tool for MADES, and the Geomatics Directorate collaborates to keep the data integrated into the SAIM up to date.

The Project Management Unit, UGP recognizes that the Geomatics Directorate plays an upmost role in keeping SIAM functioning and that includes the forest certification processes as well. With the intention of simplifying the certification processes, it is necessary to carry out adaptation work of the SIAM on a continuous basis to facilitate the reduction of requirements, shorten the procedures and lower the costs of forest certification under the Environmental Services regime (Law 3001/6), ES. To keep SIAM updated requires the hiring of specialized technical personnel. As part of the capacity-building component of the Geomatics Directorate, the PMU identified the need to hire four (4) consultancies to support the implementation of the component related to the Geographic Information System that is generated in the Geomatics Directorate. The workload in Geomatics is estimated to be about 300 files daily; in one month, it can reach about 3.000. The nature of the files includes req
