Opportunity Summary:
The Malawi Support for Integrated Service Delivery opportunity was a USAID-funded health program designed to expand access to, and increase use of, high-quality health services across Malawi. The overall intent was to strengthen service delivery in a way that could be supported and sustained over time through active community involvement, strong national leadership, and meaningful engagement from civil society organizations. The program aligned with the U.S. Foreign Assistance Framework objective of "Investing in People," signaling a focus on improving population health outcomes as a foundation for broader development.
Funding was organized into three major, complementary components. The largest portion, Sector I: Support for Service Delivery (SSD), was budgeted at $65,289,911 and centered on improving the direct provision of health services. Sector II: Social and Behavior Change Communication (SBCC) was allocated $24,200,000 to address the knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors that influence health-seeking and health-protective practices, with the aim of increasing demand for and correct use of services. Sector III: Health Policy and Systems Strengthening (HPSS) was budgeted at $10,684,000 to support the underlying policy and system functions that make service delivery more effective and sustainable, such as governance, coordination, and other health system strengthening measures.
The award mechanism for this opportunity was a Cooperative Agreement, which typically means substantial involvement by the funding agency in technical direction, collaboration, or oversight during implementation. The opportunity was categorized as discretionary funding in the health sector, with an estimated total funding amount of $100,000,000 and an award ceiling equal to the full $100,000,000 (no award floor was specified). USAID anticipated making up to three awards, and applicants were required to include cost sharing or matching, meaning implementing organizations needed to contribute a portion of resources in addition to USAID funds.
Eligibility was broadly open ("unrestricted"), indicating that a wide range of entity types could apply, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full announcement. The opportunity was issued by USAID with the listing reflecting South Africa USAID Pretoria as the agency office. Key dates included an initial posting on July 7, 2010, an original closing date of August 23, 2010, and a revised closing date of September 13, 2010, with the archive date listed as September 22, 2010. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement, the point of contact provided was Beatrice M. Lumande, an Acquisition and Assistance Specialist, reachable by phone at 0027124522377 and by email at blumande@usaid.gov.
