Opportunity Summary:
The ZIMBABWE STRENGTHENING PRIVATE SECTOR SERVICES PROJECT is a U.S. government-funded health opportunity administered by USAID through its South Africa mission in Pretoria. The central goal of this activity is to expand the availability of social sector services and related products in Zimbabwe by relying primarily on private sector channels. In practical terms, the opportunity is focused on strengthening how private providers, private supply chains, and other non-governmental market actors deliver health and other social sector-related services and commodities, with the intent of increasing access and availability for people in Zimbabwe.
This funding opportunity was released as a discretionary award under a Cooperative Agreement, meaning the selected recipient would typically implement the project with substantial involvement from USAID (for example, through close collaboration on work planning, technical direction, and monitoring). The funding falls under the Health activity category, and USAID anticipated making one award. The total estimated funding for the opportunity was up to USD 100,000,000, with an award ceiling of USD 100,000,000 and no stated minimum award floor (listed as USD 0). There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which generally means applicants were not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility, although applicants could still propose leveraged resources or partnerships if that strengthened the approach.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, indicating that a wide range of applicant types could apply, subject to any additional eligibility language contained in the full announcement. This typically includes non-profit organizations, for-profit entities, academic institutions, and other qualified organizations, provided they meet U.S. government assistance requirements and any specific conditions outlined in the solicitation.
Key timing details show the opportunity was posted and created on February 17, 2010, with an original and current closing date of March 22, 2010. The opportunity was later archived on April 21, 2010, which signals that the application window is long closed and the solicitation is maintained for historical record.
For applicants who had trouble accessing the full announcement electronically at the time, USAID provided a point of contact: Paul Vacik, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 0027124522177 or by email at applications4@usaid.gov.
