NBSAP Knowledge Navigator
Global Not Applicable

The NBSAP Knowledge Navigator is a custom GPT built for the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership to provide members, country focal points, facilitators, and partner organisations with on-demand, multilingual access to selected reference material on biodiversity governance, climate action, and sustainable development. The current knowledge base draws on knowledge products generated by the GIZ global project, Strengthening National Implementation of Global Biodiversity Targets, under the umbrella of the NBSAP Accelerator Partnership. It synthesises guidance on NBSAP and NDC synergies, gender equality in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, Indigenous Peoples' rights and perspectives, youth participation in biodiversity governance, and whole-of-society approaches, drawing on country experiences from Colombia, Brazil, Peru, Madagascar, Namibia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Lao PDR and Indonesia. The GPT lowers the barrier to knowledge by allowing natural-language queries against curated reference material rather than requiring users to navigate multiple documents and portals.

UNOPS
AI Assisted Automation of Shopping Process
Global Not Applicable

UNOPS built an in-house AI tool to assist low-value procurement ("Shopping") by automating routine tasks and unlocking human capacity. The tool extracts unstructured data from various supplier formats into structured information, compares offers against requirements and assists in conducting evidence-based evaluations. It further assists personnel by translating offers into English and ranking suppliers based on technical acceptability and price.
Additionally, the tool auto-drafts award documents based on process data while maintaining a ‘human-in-the-loop’ approach to ensure essential review and oversight. By significantly reducing manual data entry, facilitating cross-analysis and administrative burdens, this tool allows personnel to redirect their effort toward higher-value strategic tasks.

The tool offers a range of advanced features, such as bulk uploads, context isolation, diverse file type inputs, substantial file size upload capacity, bulk processing of all proposals, the ability to select different AI models, the generation of a summary report comparing all proposals, clear identification of human review requirements, bulk exports of evaluation reports, and targeted export to corporate drives. Additionally, the tool provides full auditable functionality.

UNOPS
AI Assisted tool for Assessment of Protection from Sexual Exploitation and Abuse (PSEA) capacity of Implementing Partners (IP's)
Global Not Applicable

UNOPS uses its in-house AI-powered tool, the AI Playbook, to support PSEA-specific capacity assessments for Implementing Partners (IPs). Previously, IPs completed and shared a self-assessment across eight PSEA areas with supporting documents, which UNOPS Grants Officials manually reviewed, adjusted, and used to develop an action plan. This process is now almost fully automated using AI, delivering close to a 90% reduction in assessment time and allowing staff to focus on building IP capacity and monitoring progress in closing identified PSEA gaps rather than on the assessment itself.
