1. Inception Report: This report should provide a good description and comprehension of the work at hand, which will demonstrate the level of understanding of the assignment by the consultant. In line with that, it would be good to have a detailed table of content of the study as follows: (i) the compliance status of meat derivative products, veterinary services, and the animal health regulatory system, (ii) the national (and regional) food safety and conformity assessment system (including laboratories, inspection, and testing), (iii) logistics infrastructure (such as abattoirs and the cold chain), and (iv) the compliance levels of the private sector and small-scale beef producers. (ii) Sources of data (primary and secondary data) and methodology and approach to the assessment. (iii) Work plan that will be followed and an annotated outline of the final gap assessment report. The inception report should also give an idea of the key messages and recommendations that could emerge from the study. 2. Draft Report and validation workshop: The report evaluates the alignment of Rwanda's beef, dairy, and meat value chain with international standards for export to the European Union (EU) and the Middle East, highlighting areas such as veterinary services, food safety systems, logistics infrastructure, and compliance levels among private sector and small-scale producers, while identifying gaps and outlining a key action plan to address them. 3. Final Report: A final report making actionable recommendations on how to strengthen the Gako project based on conclusions and contributions from the workshop.
