EXPRESSION OF INTEREST

PROVISION OF CONSULTANCY SERVICES FOR DEVELOPMENT OF STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURES (SOPS) FOR HEALTH FACILITY, COMMUNITY AND SCHOOL BASED ITN DISTRIBUTION IN TANZANIA MAINLAND AND ZANZIBAR (RFQ 0028 2021)

1. Background and project description Johns Hopkins University Centre for Communication Programs (Referred as ‘CCP) is an American NGO registered to operate in Tanzania as an Organization limited by guarantee and is domiciled in Tanzania. On 22nd January 2008 the Organization was issued a Certificate of Compliance No 1982 as a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) having met the requirement of the NGO status.

The USAID Tanzania Vector Control Activity (TVCA) is a USAID funded project that implements proven evidence-based vector control approaches in Tanzania, focusing on insecticide treated nets (ITNs). TVCA works with the Government of Tanzania sector ministries and malaria partners, providing state of the art reviews advice, and plans concerning developments in vector control and their implementation.

2. Purpose of the consultancy services (RFQ 0028 2021)

As part of TVCAs role of supporting continuous and equitable access to ITNs, the project has supported the National Malaria Control Programme (NMCP) Presidents Office Regional Authority and Local Government {(PORALG), and Zanzibar Malaria Elimination Programme (ZAMEP) to revise the existing implementation guidelines for health facility based, school based, and community based ITN distribution. The revised guidelines reflect the current best field practices, lessons learned from past implementation and challenges from the past implementation of these distribution channels.

The revised guidelines will be used to develop brief and concise Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) documents for health facility based, school based, and community based ITN distribution. The SOPs will serve as simple handy and readily available reference material (in electronic form) for reference, orientation, and re orientation on implementing these channels at all levels. Implementers will use the SOPs at national and sub national levels.

CCP would like to invite interested, competent, registered and reputable individual Consultant or company to submit their Expression of Interest (EOI) to provide consultancy services to convert the revised implementation guidelines for health facility based (for both Mainland and Zanzibar), school based (for Mainland only) and community based (for Zanzibar only) ITN distribution into brief and concise Standard SOPs documents. The SOPs will cover relevant content on all aspects of implementation for these channels. The SOPs will be developed in both English and Kiswahili.

3. Timeframe Work will commence after the execution of the agreement by both CCP and the Consultant. All deliverables should be completed within eight weeks of the execution of the agreement.

4. Required Experience Previous experience in developing Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) in the health facility community and school based is highly desirable.

5. Application Requirements Interested applicants may request a full RFQ document. To info.tvca@jhuccptz.org and the deadline for requesting the RFQ document is 15th June 2021 at 5 pm. The deadline for application submission will be on 17th June 2021 at 5 pm.
