Opportunity Summary:

The USAID Tanzania funding opportunity titled "Comprehensive and Sustainable Clinical and Community BAsed HIV/AIDS Services" (Funding Opportunity Number: USAID TANZANIA 11 004 APS) is a discretionary health-focused solicitation that planned to make multiple cooperative agreement awards to support large-scale, integrated HIV/AIDS programming in Tanzania. The core aim is not only to deliver HIV/AIDS services, but to do so in a way that strengthens the broader health system and makes services sustainable over time, with a clear emphasis on long-term local ownership and leadership.

Applicants were asked to propose practical approaches for improving program sustainability and integrating service delivery across a range of HIV/AIDS and related health services. The opportunity explicitly emphasizes that proposed programs should draw on and actively use the expertise of Tanzanian partners across sectors, including civil society organizations, non-governmental organizations, and public and private institutions. In other words, the design is meant to avoid stand-alone or externally driven models and instead push toward partnerships where Tanzanian organizations increasingly lead planning, implementation, and management as the program matures.

A central expectation for any awardee consortium or partnership is capacity strengthening of local Tanzanian institutions. The funded partnership would be responsible for engaging Tanzanian entities, supporting them, and building their ability to implement and manage comprehensive HIV/AIDS activities delivered through both clinical settings (such as health facilities) and community-based platforms. Alongside direct HIV/AIDS programming, the solicitation highlights the need to build or reinforce the health system structures that support reliable service delivery, reflecting a systems-strengthening approach rather than a narrow disease-only model.

From a funding and administrative standpoint, USAID anticipated up to six awards under a cooperative agreement mechanism, with an estimated total funding level of about $185,000,000. Individual awards were expected to fall within a sizable range, with an award floor of $20,000,000 and a ceiling of $40,000,000, indicating large, multi-year implementation efforts rather than small pilot projects. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement listed. The opportunity was posted on February 25, 2011, and the application closing date was August 24, 2011, with an archive date of September 23, 2011. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas).

Eligibility was described as "Others" with additional details contained in the full APS document, meaning applicants needed to consult the announcement text to confirm whether their organization type and structure met USAID's requirements. The funding was issued by USAID Tanzania in Dar es Salaam. For access issues or questions about the announcement, the listed contact was Samuel Kiranga, Acquisition Specialist (phone: 2668503).
