Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA 615 17 000005
The COUNTY MEASUREMENTS, LEARNING AND ACCOUNTABILITY PROGRAM II is a five-year USAID-funded activity designed to improve how counties collect, manage, analyze, and use health-related data for better decisions. The central goal is to strengthen outcome measurement, learning, and accountability systems so that county governments and their partners can rely on higher-quality data and clearer synthesized information when planning programs, implementing services, shaping policies, and making day-to-day management decisions. In practice, this type of activity typically focuses on improving the full data-to-decision pipeline: ensuring the right information is captured, that it is accurate and timely, that it can be interpreted correctly, and that it is routinely used to guide actions and resource allocation.
A key feature of the opportunity is its emphasis on working directly with county governments and coordinating closely with other development partners. Rather than creating parallel reporting structures, the program is expected to operate within the existing county health sector coordination framework in the focal counties. That means aligning with county-led priorities, harmonizing technical assistance and investments with what other donors are already supporting, and reducing duplication in measurement and reporting. The intent is to promote rational, coordinated support that strengthens county systems in a lasting way, instead of producing short-term project-specific data improvements that fade once external support ends.
The opportunity was released by the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) under Funding Opportunity Number RFA 615 17 000005, categorized as an earmark, and issued as a Cooperative Agreement. A cooperative agreement generally indicates that USAID expects to be substantially involved in the implementation alongside the recipient, such as through collaboration on technical direction, work planning, and performance monitoring. The funding is associated with CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 98.001, which is a broad USAID foreign assistance listing.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is open to any type of entity unless additional eligibility conditions are specified elsewhere in the full announcement. The opportunity anticipated one award, with an award ceiling of $19,250,000, suggesting a single implementing partner would lead the activity at scale. The notice was created on June 23, 2017, with an original closing date of July 24, 2017, indicating a competitive solicitation with a defined proposal submission window.
Overall, this grant opportunity is aimed at strengthening county-level health measurement and accountability capacity by improving outcome measurement systems and the routine use of evidence. The expected result is more reliable and usable information for county planning and decision-making, achieved through coordinated support that fits within county health sector structures and complements other donor investments.Apply for RFA 615 17 000005
