Opportunity Information: Apply for 72052121R00017
The Improved Health Service Delivery (IHSD) opportunity is a USAID/Haiti funding round issued as an addendum under an existing Annual Program Statement (APS), specifically the Global Health New Partnerships Initiative (GH NPI) APS No. 7200AA19APS00013. It is important to note that this is not a standalone Request for Applications (RFA). Instead, USAID is using the APS mechanism to invite concept papers, which typically means applicants submit a shorter, idea-focused proposal first, and only selected respondents may be asked to develop a full application later. The opportunity was released by USAID/Haiti (USAID-Port Au Prince) under Funding Opportunity Number 72052121R00017, categorized as discretionary funding in the health sector (CFDA 98.001), with an original closing date of July 23, 2021, and a stated award ceiling of up to $90,000,000 with an expectation of a single award.
The central purpose of the IHSD round is to improve health outcomes in Haiti by strengthening and sustaining health service delivery, while also aligning with broader U.S. policy priorities for assistance to Haiti. USAID/Haiti is specifically looking for concept papers that emphasize new and underutilized partnerships. In practice, this signals a preference for approaches that bring in partners who are not traditionally part of USAID-funded health programming in the country, or that restructure collaboration in a way that adds new capabilities, reach, or efficiencies. These partnerships could include local organizations, private sector entities, faith-based groups, professional associations, community networks, and other nontraditional actors, depending on the eligibility details referenced in the full announcement.
Programmatically, USAID highlights several priority health objectives. These include preventing maternal and child deaths, reducing unplanned pregnancies, achieving HIV epidemic control, improving nutrition outcomes, and contributing to broader health systems strengthening. Taken together, these priorities point toward integrated service delivery models that can address multiple drivers of poor health at once, rather than operating through isolated, single-disease activities. The maternal and child health focus suggests attention to quality antenatal, delivery, and postnatal care; emergency obstetric and newborn care; referral systems; and community-based interventions that increase timely care-seeking. Preventing unplanned pregnancies indicates an emphasis on voluntary family planning services, informed choice, reliable supply chains for contraceptives, and removing barriers to access. HIV epidemic control implies scaling evidence-based prevention and testing, ensuring rapid linkage to treatment, improving viral suppression, and strengthening patient retention and data systems. Nutrition improvements typically involve interventions such as screening and management of acute malnutrition, maternal nutrition, infant and young child feeding practices, and coordination with health and community platforms. Health systems strengthening is the cross-cutting backbone of these goals, often involving workforce capacity, facility readiness, governance, financing, logistics, data for decision-making, and resilience in service delivery.
A defining feature of the IHSD round is its emphasis on sustainability. USAID indicates that awards under this addendum should not only deliver services and improve near-term outcomes, but also ensure that health service delivery activities can be maintained over time. This usually means designing interventions that build Haitian institutional capacity, strengthen local ownership, improve the reliability of routine systems (staffing, commodities, supervision, and information), and reduce dependency on external inputs. In many USAID health awards, sustainability also implies improving coordination with the Ministry of Public Health and Population and reinforcing structures that enable continuity of care even amid political, economic, or environmental shocks.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with the expectation that applicants consult the full notice for clarification. That phrasing often indicates that a range of organization types may apply, potentially including local and international NGOs, private voluntary organizations, educational institutions, consortiums, and other entities allowed under the APS rules. Because this is an APS addendum rather than an RFA, the selection process typically focuses on responsiveness to the addendum priorities, the novelty and feasibility of the partnership model, and the likelihood of measurable impact and sustainability, rather than simply choosing among fully developed technical proposals from the outset.
In short, IHSD is a USAID/Haiti concept paper solicitation under an existing global health partnerships APS, aimed at catalyzing innovative and less traditional collaborations to strengthen Haiti's health service delivery. The opportunity targets high-impact outcomes across maternal and child health, family planning, HIV, and nutrition, while prioritizing approaches that reinforce the underlying health system and can endure beyond the life of USAID funding.Apply for 72052121R00017
