Using images and videos from remote construction sites, we can instantly identify hazards and implement corrective actions. UNOPS operates in challenging, often hard‑to‑reach locations, which makes continuous site monitoring difficult, especially when a project manager oversees multiple sites. By applying AI, we empower our personnel to quickly detect potential hazards, verify compliance with safety standards, and recommend actions to mitigate risk.
Activity Type AI Tools/Solutions
A comprehensive tool designed to facilitate the simultaneous upload of numerous technical proposals, including Call for Proposals (CFP) and Evaluation Matrices. This tool enables the comprehensive evaluation and scoring of all received proposals.
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.
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.
Activity Type AI Tools/SolutionsAwareness/AdvocacyUNOPS 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.
