Opportunity Summary:
The Strengthening Malaria Monitoring and Evaluation Systems (SMMES) of Ethiopia Program is a USAID Mission in Ethiopia grant opportunity designed to improve the country s malaria monitoring and evaluation capacity over a five year period. Issued as a discretionary funding opportunity under Funding Opportunity Number RFA 663 13 000007, it is structured as a Cooperative Agreement, meaning USAID would expect to remain substantially involved during implementation through collaboration, technical engagement, and oversight rather than providing a hands off grant. The main focus of the activity category is monitoring and evaluation system strengthening, indicating the program is intended to build or reinforce the systems that generate, manage, analyze, and use malaria data for decision making.
The opportunity anticipates a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of 5,000,000 USD and an award ceiling of 5,000,000 USD. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility. The assistance is associated with CFDA 98.001, which covers USAID foreign assistance for programs overseas, situating the award within USAID s standard overseas assistance framework.
Eligibility is limited to Ethiopian organizations, and both non profit and for profit entities are allowed to apply. This is explicitly stated in the eligibility information, reflecting a preference for local institutional leadership and implementation capacity within Ethiopia. The issuing agency is USAID Ethiopia based in Addis Ababa, and the posting and creation date of the announcement is Aug 23, 2013. The original and current closing date for applications is Sep 23, 2013, and the archive date is Oct 23, 2013, which indicates the window for submission was about one month and that the notice is now historical rather than open.
In practical terms, a program framed around strengthening malaria monitoring and evaluation systems typically supports improvements such as better routine data collection and reporting, stronger data quality assurance processes, enhanced surveillance and case reporting, more consistent indicator definitions and data standards, stronger capacity for data analysis and interpretation, and better use of evidence to guide planning and resource allocation. It may also involve training and mentoring for staff at different levels of the health system, improvements to information systems and data flows, and support for feedback loops so that malaria program managers can act on findings. Because it is a Cooperative Agreement, the implementer would be expected to coordinate closely with USAID and likely with national and sub national health authorities to align activities with national malaria strategies and reporting requirements.
For applicants who had difficulty accessing the full announcement, the contact person listed is Girma Debelu, Acquisition and Assistance Management Specialist at USAID Ethiopia, with the provided office phone number 251 111 306002 and an email address referenced in the notice.
