RFI: USAID/Washington Digital Health, Information Systems, and Data Use Request for Information

Background
The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) is seeking inputs from interested organizations regarding potential activity design(s) to advance partner countries’ national health information systems (HIS), digital health ecosystems, and optimize the availability, quality, and use of information to achieve national and global public health objectives. The obtained information will be used to help make planning decisions and may inform activity design to improve future development outcomes, but is solely for market research purposes.
All types of organizations and firms are strongly encouraged to submit a response, including small businesses.

Grant Details
The health information system and digital health space has matured significantly in the last decade, including through the establishment of global principles for digital development. Optimized country health information systems and digital health solutions require systems- and standards-based approaches that reduce fragmentation and duplication and are designed/selected to align with end users’ data needs and use to improve their workflows.
USAID is exploring a mechanism design that integrates with and advances countries’ national digital health and data ecosystems and optimizes availability, quality, and use of information to achieve national public health objectives. USAID would like to ensure that any potential new activities leverage past and present contributions to drive innovative, sustainable, and scalable solutions in support of country-owned and -led health information systems and data that are agile and responsive to emerging needs.

Eligibility Requirements
All types of organizations and firms are strongly encouraged to submit a response, including small businesses.
