1. BACKGROUND The Integrated Food Policy Research Program (IFPRP) with technical guidance of the Directorate General of Food

(DG Food) launched a primary survey to assess the physical conditions of all public food-grain storage facilities

located across the country. The objective of the survey is to collect and process primary data specific to the

physical condition of food storage facilities, allowing policymakers to develop an action plan as to how to make

utmost utilization of the facilities. In order to roll out the survey, the IFPRI-led JV hired thirty civil engineers to

conduct this survey and a robust data collection tool along with a comprehensive questionnaire were designed.

The select engineers were trained by the IFPRI-led JV to increase their capacity to collect information from the

storage facilities. Annex – 1 contains the questionnaires that are being used in the study.

1.1 Selection of the engineers for the survey

A total of 30 enumerators were selected for this study. All enumerators recruited for the survey were drawn from

a list of engineers, who were required to have a minimum qualification of Diploma in Civil Engineering. After

conducting initial screening, 47 applicants were interviewed in June 2017 at the IFPRP project office. The

applications were interviewed by a panel consisting of a Field Survey Coordinator, Engr. Md. Abu Bakar, a

representative from the Directorate General of Food, Engr. Md. Rafiqul Rahman Mazumder, and members of the

IFPRP Research Team, Dr. Kindie Getnet, Mr. Tofazzal Hossain and Mr. Razin Iqbal Kabir.

The applicants were questioned on their educational background, relevant work experience and were tested for

technical competencies. The applicants were assessed and marked along five criteria: Education, Experience,

Computer/Tablet Use Ability, Communication Skill, and Personality.

After summing up their scores in each criterion, the top 30 candidates were selected based on their overall score.

Successful candidates were notified upon their selection. Once their participation was confirmed, the select

enumerators were asked to sign a short-term employment contract and join the training event held at the

Bangladesh Institute of Development Studies (BIDS) from July 17 to 20, 2017.

1.2 Designing of the survey tools

The study employed a quantitative questionnaire to collect information on the existing infrastructure, needed

repairs, and economic value of each of the 652 existing public food storage facilities in Bangladesh. This

questionnaire was developed and continually revised over a period of 2 months, with significant inputs from both

the IFPRP Research Team and the Modern Food Storage Facilities Project’s (MFSP) Project Management Unit

(PMU).

The questionnaire was used to collect information on GIS location, present functionality, godown-level

repair/reconstruction needs, overall infrastructure repair estimates, new construction requirements, community

encroachments, and perceptions of the local community regarding the social importance and market value of the

facilities. A draft version of the questionnaire was used for training and pre-testing. All relevant feedback from the

training and pre-test was used to develop a final draft, with which the enumerators were sent to the field.

Alongside the paper questionnaires, the IFPRP Research Team also developed a Computer-Assisted Personal

Interview (CAPI) form developed using SurveyCTO for Android. The CAPI form included skip logic and value

constraints to minimize data entry error. During the training, select enumerators were trained to collect data using

3

Android tablets, and to upload the data on a regular schedule on to a dedicated server for the project (hosted at:

https://bifprp.surveycto.com).

2. ROLL OUT OF THE TRAINING The IFPRI led JV conducted the trainings of the select engineers on July 17, 2017 (detailed training schedule is

provided in Annex – 2). The training sessions were facilitated by Mr. Tofazzal Hossain, former Director, Admin of

DG Food and consultant of IFPRI Bangladesh, Mr. Razin Iqbal Kabir, senior research assistant at IFPRI Bangladesh,
