Meghalaya, as a State is well endowed with vast renewable natural resources. Majority of its population depends upon the natural resources for income generation. One of the strategicpriorities for the Government of Meghalaya (GOM) is to balance the requirements of rapideconomic growth and natural resource conservation. Keeping in view this priority, three areas of focus emerge - promoting inclusive growth with poverty alleviation, employment generationand income generation. To achieve this vision, GOM is emphasizing on human capitaldevelopment in the State.
Total population of Meghalaya as per 2011 census is 2,966,889 of which male and female are
50.28% and 49.71% respectively. In 2001, total population was 2,318,822 in which males were
50.71% while females were 49.28%. In Meghalaya about 80% of the population is dependent
entirely on agriculture for their income. Out of the total geographical area about 10% is under
cultivation. Rice is the dominant food grain crop accounting for over 80% of the food grain
production in the state. Other important food grain crops are maize, wheat, other cereals and
pulses. Meghalaya is also famed for its horticultural crops like mandarin orange, lemon,
pineapple, guava, litchi, banana, jack fruit and temperate fruits such as plum, pears and peach.
Meghalaya is one of the 11 special category states of India which have been designated as such
since they suffer from various constraints due to their special history, poor connectivity,
difficult terrain, weak economic base, and poor infrastructure.
2. About the project: “Supporting Human Capital Development in Meghalaya”
Human capital development has been one of the top priorities of the Government of Meghalaya
(GoM) with "education and skill development” as the cornerstone of development for enhancing
people’s productivity and employability in the State. To achieve the objectives of quality and
equitable human development, the Government of Meghalaya has been implementing the
‘Supporting Human Capital Development in Meghalaya (SHCDM)’ project with the support of
Asian Development Bank (ADB). The Asian Development Bank (ADB) sponsored project
"Supporting Human Capital Development in Meghalaya” (
employability of Meghalaya’s youth by improving quality, delivery and access
SHCDM) aims to enhance the
o Secondary ant d
Higher Secondary (SHS) education, technical and vocational skills training across the 11
Districts of Meghalaya. It intends to build awareness among Meghalaya’s youth about the
benefits of education and vocational training.
The project will help in creating an enabling environment for inclusive growth through the
following outputs:
Output 1: Improved teaching and learning in government-aided SHS schools
Output 2: Increased capacity and responsiveness of technical and
vocationaleducation and training
Output 3: Increased awareness and participation
Output 4: Improved project management and monitoring and evaluation
The Department of Finance (DOF) is the Executing Agency (EA) for the project. The Departmentof Education (DOE), Meghalaya State Skill Development Society (MSSDS), Department of Labor(DOL) and Public Works Department (PWD) are the four Implementing Agencies (project. The four IAs and have been designated as Project Implementation Units i.e. PI

3. Purpose of this REOI
Through this REOI, the GoM envisages to prepare a shortlist of firms for submitting technical as
well as financial proposals based on the Request for Proposal (RFP) to be released by GoM
subsequently for the selection of STP. Recruitment would be done as per Guidelines in “The Use
of Consultants by Asian Development Bank and its Borrowers”. The following sections of this
REOI present the Scope of Work (SoW) envisaged for the STP for imparting Skill Training under
the ambit of this project. The business requirements and the SoW described in the subsequent
sections are indicative and at broad level only. The RFP shall contain more detailed SoW.
As part of this project, a dedicated Skills Challenge Fund (SCF) has been established and vested
with MSSDS for meeting the cost of conducting the required Skill Training Programs. The SCF
will provide MSSDS a flexible modality to encourage participation of private sector skills
training providers for imparting employment linked and demand driven skills training
programs to 45,000 unemployed youths.
This Project aims at achieving the following goals:
a. Transforming the unskilled and unemployed youth of the State by providing employable skills and linking them to employment generation activities;
b. Transforming the unemployed workforce to gain self-employment through entrepreneurial skill trainings;
c. Training the youth in employable skills for domestic and overseas market;
d. Gearing up for an economic progress in the state by focusing on the multiple sectors
and providing skilled manpower.
4. About the training program
Although there has been a tradition of precision crafts/metal working and painting in
Meghalaya, the potential of the sector is not leveraged enough to generate employment in the
sector. The communities which have innate skills and genetic talent
to express their abilities in industrial crafts and gaining benefit from
do not have opportunities
the national missions like
‘Make in India’.
Traditionally, Meghalaya has always adopted high quality plumbing in view of the hilly terrain,
water quality and supply condition. Across India, quality of construction of buildings in
Page 6 of 24
hospitality, ITES have attained international standards and need very high quality plumbers,
painters and other technicians who command a high premium in the market. Unfortunately, the
supply of such trained workers is very limited.
The SHCDM project intends to impart skilling, with a view to create new opportunities for high
quality artisan skills that can be linked to international standards and markets through the
various professional guilds existing in India. Some of the application sectors for employment
with premium salaries in welding and industrial painting are petroleum refineries, marine,
aerospace, boilers and heat exchangers etc. All the proposed trades also have good
opportunities for overseas employment. It is pertinent to mention that Kerala State Skills
Mission has set up International Quality Training Centers for several trades including the ones
mentioned above mostly for overseas employment.
