Opportunity Summary:

The Strengthening Facilities for Health (SFH) Project is a U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) funding opportunity issued by the USAID Mission in Phnom Penh, Cambodia, aimed at improving the quality of facility-based health services for reproductive, maternal, neonatal, and child health. The work is specifically targeted to eight focus provinces in Cambodia, with the overall intent of strengthening how health facilities deliver care across the continuum that affects women, mothers, newborns, and children. In practical terms, the opportunity is centered on raising the standard of care within health facilities rather than community-only interventions, emphasizing better service quality and improved delivery of key RMNCH (reproductive, maternal, neonatal, and child health) services where patients receive clinical care.

This opportunity was released as a discretionary award under a Cooperative Agreement, meaning USAID anticipated an active partnership role during implementation rather than a hands-off grant arrangement. The funding falls under the Health activity category and is listed under CFDA (now commonly referred to as assistance listing) number 98.001, which covers USAID foreign assistance programs overseas. The solicitation anticipated a single award, indicating USAID planned to select one prime implementer to lead the project and coordinate implementation activities, partnerships, and deliverables.

Financially, the total estimated funding level was USD 16,500,000, with an award ceiling of USD 16,500,000 and an award floor of USD 15,000,000. Applicants were required to provide cost sharing or matching, so proposals needed to include a clear plan for how the applicant would contribute resources in addition to USAID funds. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition was open to a wide range of entity types, subject to any additional eligibility conditions that may have been included in the full announcement text.

The timeline for the opportunity shows it was posted on July 30, 2013, with a closing date of September 10, 2013 (both the original and current closing dates match), and it was archived on October 10, 2013. The funding opportunity number is RFA 442 13 000005, and the official title is Strengthening Facilities for Health (SFH) Project. For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically, USAID provided a point of contact: Honey Sokry, AA Specialist, reachable by phone at +855 23 728345, referencing RFA 442 13 000005.
