East Europe Foundation, as part of the USAID/UK aid Transparency and Accountability in Public Administration and Services (TAPAS) project, announces a competition for a Business Analyst for the project to implement the Register of Destroyed/Damaged Property.

The aim of the project is to develop and implement the second and subsequent stages of the geographic information system of the State Register of Damaged and Destroyed Property (including the user’s electronic cabinet and public electronic portal). This stage is aimed at deploying additional functionalities of the system. The planned objectives of the second stage, covered by this project, are to improve the existing functionalities and introduce new components of the System.

The development of the State Register of Damaged and Destroyed Property is crucial for collecting, accumulating, recording, processing, storing and protecting information (documents) on damaged and destroyed real estate, spatial coordinates of objects, persons whose real estate is damaged or destroyed, damage and losses incurred as a result of damage to such property, and other information specified in the Procedure for Submitting Information Reports on Damaged and Destroyed Real Estate as a Result of Hostilities, Terrorist Acts, and Sabotage Caused by Military Aggression of the Russian Federation.

The introduction of this System will standardize the processes of collecting, processing and storing information on damaged and destroyed property in a single format and a single-state database. Automation minimizes the human factor in most processes and is expected to have a significant anti-corruption impact.
