TA-10080 REG: Preparing the Pacific Renewable Energy Investment Facility, Phase 3 - Senior UI/UX Specialist — Geospatial (E-049450-038)

The consultant owns the end-to-end design of both platforms, centred on the map-first APEDR experience and the MRAP menu-of-options output, with a lighter post-beta refinement presence: • Discovery, information architecture and wireframes for both platforms, centred on the map-first APEDR landing experience. • Interaction design for the guided, non-generative in-tool assistant (site identification and parametersetting), with clear indicative-output labelling. • Design of the ranked menu-of-options results — including floating PV + BESS — and the San Benito illustrative walkthrough. • Design system: components, typography, colour and cartographic styles shared across MRAP and APEDR. • PDF / roadmap report template • Cartographic and geospatial layer design for both interactive maps; accessibility audits and design QA. • Post-beta UX refinement (March–April): feedback-driven design changes and a final accessibility pass. Detailed Tasks and/or Expected Output (October 2026 – April 2027; beta launch end-February 2027, followed by QA/QC and refinement in March– April; inclusive of an approximately two-week reduction over the December holidays). C1 - System Architecture: Discovery, information architecture & map-first landing design. A single information architecture spanning both platforms, centered on a map-first APEDR entry point: an interactive Asia-Pacific region → country map where the user clicks to explore, geospatial layers on the map and tabular data in side panels, the map minimizes on drill-in, and CKAN search is retained. Wireframes for both experiences. C2 - System Design: Component library, typography, colour, and cartographic style for each layer family — a single visual language shared across the MRAP atlas and the APEDR map landing page. C3 - Feature Design: Guided assistant UX & menu-of-options results design. Interaction design for the guided, non-generative in-tool assistant (site identification and parameter-setting, with clear indicative-output labelling), and design of the ranked menu-of-options results — including floating PV + BESS — and the San Benito walkthrough from map selection to a set of best options. C4 - Roadmap Design: PDF/report template & excel output design. Assessment- and roadmap-report templates with required attribution strings, the prominent limitations statement, clear labelling of any assistantderived content, and a treatment that makes a single number hard to read without its bounds. C5 - Geospatial design (shared):. Map styling, layer symbology, region / country choropleth and drill-in interaction design, and the side-panel-to-map transition for both interactive maps. C6 - Accessibility audits & design QA through beta: Two accessibility passes and design QA through delivery across both platforms to the end-February beta launch. C7 - Post-beta UX refinement: Feedback-driven UX and cartographic refinements after the beta, a final accessibility pass, and design QA of the refined platform to end-April. Reporting, coordination and quality assurance: The consultant reports to 3 Energy Specialists, under the overall direction of Director, Energy Sector Office (Emerging Areas). The consultant coordinates closely with the Senior Developer on the assistant UX, the menu-of-options results and the map-first landing implementation, and with the Product Leader on the design system's integration into the shared architecture. Every deliverable is reviewed and accepted by ADB before payment. The consultant will work to the API contract owned by the Product Leader; all code merges are subject to the Product Leader and ADB Administrator's review authority. Ownership, intellectual property and open-source release: • All engagements are administered by ADB. ADB owns all outputs — code, deliverables, data and derived assets; the consultant receives access rights, not ownership of the outputs. • Intellectual property is assigned to ADB, and code is additionally released under a named open-source licence (MIT or Apache 2.0 for code; CC BY 4.0 for documentation and derived data). • All work is developed in repositories accessible to ADB at highest privileges from day one • Infrastructure is defined as code and is a named deliverable with acceptance criteria, enabling redeployment into an ADB-designated account. • AI features in MRAP are guided, non-generative product features; there is no public-facing generative AI, consistent with ADB's moratorium and AI-use policy, and any assistant output is clearly labelled as indicative and kept human-in-the-loop. • The APEDR landing experience is a custom map-first design over CKAN, not a themed catalogue page; CKAN's traditional search and catalogue pages are retained as a parallel path. • Required attribution strings for all data providers are treated as design elements present in the interface and in every generated PDF. Minimum Qualification Requirements Essential • University degree in design, human-computer interaction, geoinformatics, or a related field, or equivalent professional portfolio. • At least 8 years of professional UI/UX experience with a strong portfolio of data-rich, map-based or geospatial web products. • Demonstrated experience designing interactive map experiences (region/country drill-down, choropleths, side-panel data) and decision-support / options-comparison interfaces. • Strong design-system practice (Figma or equivalent) and cartographic sensibility. • Demonstrated WCAG-aligned accessibility practice across desktop and tablet. • Professional working proficiency in English (written and spoken) is required. Desirable • Experience designing guided, non-generative assistant or workflow interfaces with clear indicative labelling. • Experience presenting uncertainty and screening-grade results to non-technical decision-makers. • Prior work with public-sector, development or multilateral institutions.
