Opportunity Summary:
The USAID/Madagascar Water and Sanitation Program is a discretionary funding opportunity designed to expand sustainable access to safe drinking water and improved sanitation in selected areas of Madagascar. Through this Annual Program Statement (APS), USAID/Madagascar signals its intent to support practical, on-the-ground programming that strengthens water and sanitation services over the long term, rather than short-lived or purely emergency interventions. The activities fall under the Environment funding activity category and are structured as cooperative agreements, which typically means USAID expects a substantial level of collaboration during implementation compared with a standard grant.
Funding is contingent on the availability of resources, but USAID/Madagascar anticipated making up to three awards under this APS. The total estimated funding amount is listed as $12,500,000, with an award ceiling of $12,500,000 and an award floor of $0, indicating flexibility in award size depending on the quality, scope, and feasibility of proposals received. Applicants must provide a 25 percent cost share, so proposals need to include a credible plan for meeting matching requirements, whether through cash, allowable in-kind contributions, or a combination, consistent with USAID cost-share rules.
The planned implementation period for the supported programing was expected to run from January 1, 2009 through September 30, 2013, positioning the opportunity as a multi-year effort aimed at sustainable outcomes. The competition was open to an unrestricted pool of applicants (in other words, any entity type could apply), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications included in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted on September 12, 2008, with a closing date of September 12, 2009, and an archive date of October 12, 2009.
For applicants needing help accessing the complete announcement, the listed point of contact was Ony Rakotomalala Andrianjaka, Acquisition and Assistance Specialist, reachable by phone at 261 20 22 225 3920. The funding opportunity number associated with this APS is 674 08 0050 APS.
