EoG is seeking to identify a local pool of specialized technical consulting companies (i.e. Technical Business Advisory Service Providers (TBASPs)), which will offer technical assistance to adopt standard requirements, develop documentation and files to introduce a product or process standard/certificate and to obtain certification for women micro, small and medium companies.

This program will be implemented in six Western Balkan countries (Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia and Serbia). The independent TBASPs will independently work with women and be reimbursed by the Engines of Growth activity for a fixed fee, regardless of the total cost of the implementation of the standard or the issuance of the standard/certificate.

The TBASPs will identify women- MSMEs (Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises), that are defined as follows:
Enterprises that are owned, managed and controlled by one or more women.
