Up to $500 million is slated for improvements that the U.S. Agency for International Development seeks to achieve in its global-health resources network.
USAID's Global Health Supply Chain Program is seeking contractor help in modernizing how the agency manages and secures its health-specific supply system.
The half-billion cap on procuring technical assistance, or TA, is for "supply chain management and commodity security" in foreign assistance recipient-nations.
"Since 2005, USAID has procured and delivered more than 4,300 different products valued at $2.4 billion and has provided more than $500 million in supply chain technical assistance in more than 50 countries," according to the draft Performance Work Statement (PWS).
Such endeavors, the PWS asserts, support the Bureau of Global Health’s vision of “a world where people lead healthy, productive lives and where mothers and children survive and thrive.”
Three offices within the bureau as well as the Office of Health Systems (OHS) are tasked with procuring "health commodities and technical assistance for USAID programs and Presidential initiatives globally": the Office of Health, Infectious Diseases, and Nutrition (HIDN); the Office of HIV/AIDS (OHA); and the Office of Population and Reproductive Health (PRH).
