From the Executive Summary:
WGTIFD developed guidance on how to integrate fishery monitoring goals into data collection, best practices for developing and managing vessel monitoring plans (VMPs), and recommendation for implementing various ETs in pelagic (trawl) fisheries. WGTIFD also developed a number of important products under ToRs D and E. WGTIFD drafted an initial electronic monitoring data specification to help progress towards standardizing the data products collected from EM systems. On ToR E, WGTIFD made significant progress collating the dozens of requests for proposals (RFPs) and calls for tenders (CFTs), developing best practices and guidance for drafting an RFP/CFT, as WGTIFD works to-wards developing a standard RFP/CFT template for governments and others to use in acquiring hardware and services from EM service providers.
