Opportunity Summary:
The Integrated Service Delivery and Healthy Behaviors (ISD-HB) opportunity is a USAID/Senegal health funding announcement intended to support a single large-scale implementer to carry out an integrated health service delivery and healthy behavior effort in Senegal. USAID is soliciting applications under a Cooperative Agreement, meaning the awardee would implement the program while working closely with USAID, with substantial involvement from the agency during planning, oversight, and key implementation decisions.
This is a discretionary funding opportunity in the health sector (CFDA 98.001) released by USAID-Senegal under Funding Opportunity Number RFA 685 16 000004. The program is designed as a five-year mechanism, and USAID indicates an intended total funding level of up to USD 69,000,000 across that period, contingent on the availability of funds. The listing sets an award ceiling of USD 69,000,000 and anticipates making one award, signaling that USAID planned to select one prime partner to manage the full scope of work rather than multiple parallel awards.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, open to both U.S. and non-U.S. organizations, with the note that applicants should still review any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full announcement. In practice, this type of mechanism often attracts consortia led by a prime organization that coordinates technical partners, local organizations, and subcontractors to deliver services and behavior change activities at scale, but the summary here simply confirms that USAID was open to a wide range of entity types unless otherwise limited in the full text.
Key dates indicate the opportunity was created and posted on March 9, 2016, with an application closing date of May 6, 2016 (the original and current closing dates match). Overall, ISD-HB is a high-value, multi-year USAID/Senegal cooperative agreement aimed at improving health outcomes by strengthening integrated service delivery and promoting healthier behaviors, with funding and final award levels dependent on congressional appropriations and USAID’s internal allocations over the five-year period.
