Opportunity Summary:
The Health Information Policy and Advocacy Project is a USAID-funded grant opportunity managed by USAID/Cambodia in Phnom Penh to support Cambodia's Ministry of Health (MoH). The core purpose is to strengthen the quality, usefulness, and policy relevance of health data so it can be used more effectively for planning, management, and decision making across the health system. In addition to improving how health information is generated and used, the project is also meant to help the MoH implement Cambodia's National Decentralization and Deconcentration (D and D) initiative, which shifts certain responsibilities and decision-making authority closer to sub-national levels. Taken together, the opportunity is geared toward improving health governance by ensuring that reliable information is available and actively used as decentralization expands.
USAID is inviting proposals from a wide range of qualified organizations, including U.S. and non-U.S. nongovernmental organizations, public international organizations/international organizations, and other eligible entities. Eligibility is described as unrestricted within those categories, meaning there is not a narrow applicant pool specified in the notice, although applicants would still need to meet any requirements described in the full program description and the additional eligibility clarifications within the official announcement.
The award would be made as a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates substantial involvement by USAID during implementation compared to a standard grant. The funding is categorized under health and falls under CFDA 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas). USAID expects to make one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $5,000,000. The anticipated award size ranges from a floor of $3,000,000 to a ceiling of $5,000,000, suggesting USAID is open to proposals of different scopes as long as they fit within those limits and align with the stated objectives. Cost sharing or matching is required, so applicants should be prepared to contribute a portion of project costs from non-USAID sources, consistent with the specific cost-share terms in the full solicitation.
This posting was initially issued as a pre-notice, meaning it served as an advance announcement rather than the complete Request for Applications. The posting date is May 22, 2013, with an original closing date not required because of the pre-notice nature; however, the current closing date listed is October 2, 2013, and the archive date is November 1, 2013. For the complete statement of goals, expected results, and detailed application instructions, USAID directs applicants to the Program Description in RFA Section I of the full announcement.
For technical or access issues related to obtaining the full announcement, the listed point of contact is Sokunn Mealea Prak, Acquisition Specialist, at phone number 855-23-728-344, referencing funding opportunity number RFA-442-13-000003 and the Health Information, Policy and Advocacy (HIPA) Project.
