RFP/CRVS/2610/64 Design,Configuration,Deployment, & Rollout of OneRegistry CRVS

Agency: UNDP | Reference: UNDP-LKA-00752 | Type: Request for proposal IntroductionThe Joint Programme (JP) Transforming Local Administrative Data Collection Systems for SDG Acceleration Sri Lanka, named OneRegistry is a transformative initiative aimed at digitally revolutionizing Sri Lanka’s Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) system to accelerate progress towards the SDGs. With a focus on inclusive governance, gender equality, and resilience, the JP adopts an integrated approach, engaging various stakeholders to overcome longstanding challenges in the CRVS system.The Joint Programme is implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the World Health Organization (WHO) in Sri Lanka, and supported via the UN Sri Lanka SDG Fund, aligns with the Government’s broader digital transformation agenda and strategy, aiming to ensure equitable access to quality public services for all citizens, particularly vulnerable populations, and paves the way for inclusive digital transformation and sustainable development. The OneRegistry project is focused on strengthening the country’s Civil Registration and Vital Statistics (CRVS) system, which is currently primarily paper-based and has high coverage for birth, death, adoption, marriage, and divorce registrations. To this end, the Registrar General’s Department serves as the key implementing partner of the OneRegistry, and the custodian of national CRVS data. The project aims to assist the Registrar General’s Department (RGD) in their existing efforts to enhance the legal identity ecosystem by digitalizing CRVS (which the new digital E-population registry together with the infrastructure to issue digitally verifiable birth certificates aims to do). Crucially, it also promotes interoperability by supporting the introduction of unique identification numbers at birth, positioning CRVS not only as a vital public service but also as a foundational building block of Sri Lanka’s broader Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) initiatives of national significanceOBJECTIVESc.TThe objective is to establish a secure, reliable, interoperable, and digitally enabled CRVS system that supports the registration and management of key life events, including births, deaths, marriages, divorces, adoptions, corrections, amendments, and certificate issuance in Sri Lanka.Please refer to the Section 5 for the detail Terms of Reference.A hybrid pre-proposal conference will be conducted on 29th October 2026 at 12.00 -2.00pm (Sri Lanka Time).
