Opportunity Summary:
The USAID funding opportunity titled "NGO Strengthening through Health Service Delivery and Technical Activities" (Funding Opportunity Number 674-11-0033) is a discretionary grant competition for a single, five-year cooperative agreement to be implemented in Angola. The main purpose is to strengthen the overall capacity of non-governmental organizations and broader civil society, while also supporting concrete service delivery work across several priority sectors, particularly health, along with education, water, and other related activities. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement, USAID would expect to have substantial involvement during implementation compared with a standard grant, typically through ongoing collaboration on technical direction, monitoring, and performance management.
The program is structured around three central objectives. First, it aims to strengthen civil society organizations in core organizational and operational competencies, including management systems, planning, budgeting, advocacy, and relevant technical capabilities. Second, it seeks to increase the amount and reach of health services delivered by civil society groups, implying an emphasis on improving not only institutional capacity but also measurable service outputs and coverage. Third, it focuses on enhancing the ability of civil society to advocate for services, indicating support for activities that improve organizations' effectiveness in engaging government and communities, representing beneficiary needs, and influencing service access and quality.
USAID indicated an intended total funding level of approximately USD 47.3 million over the five-year period, subject to the availability of funds, with about USD 8.86 million anticipated for the first year. The opportunity lists an award floor and ceiling of USD 47.3 million, signaling USAID expected to make one award at roughly that size rather than multiple smaller awards. Cost sharing or matching is required, meaning applicants would need to contribute an additional portion of resources (cash and/or in-kind, depending on the terms in the full announcement) as part of the overall program financing.
Eligibility was listed as "unrestricted," meaning the competition was open to a wide range of applicant types as allowed by the solicitation, with any specific constraints or clarifications referenced in the opportunity's eligibility notes. The funding is associated with CFDA 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas). The opportunity was posted on May 11, 2011, with an application closing date of June 22, 2011, and it was archived on July 22, 2011. The issuing office is noted as USAID in Pretoria, South Africa, reflecting regional management or procurement support for programming in Angola. For access issues or questions related to the full announcement at the time, the listed contact was Agreement Officer Eric Strong (Phone: 27 12 452 2075; Email: estrong@usaid.gov).
