NEW ACTIVITY

This activity relates to TBD FN HTXS, and TBD FN HKID.

In keeping with current guidance from (OGAC) Emergency Plan funds for this activity will target food

support to the following priority groups: Orphans and Vulnerable Children born to an HIV infected parent

(regardless of the child's HIV and nutritional status); HIV-positive pregnant and lactating women in

programs to prevent the transmission of HIV to their children (PMTCT); and Adult patients in anti-retroviral

therapy (ART) and care programs who have evidence of severe malnutrition, as defined by the Ministry of

Health.

The activity will support a Request for Proposals to procure commodities and provide logistics support

required to implement a nutrition/HIV program modeled after Kenya's Food by Prescription. It is important

to note that USG does not yet have full buy-in of the Ministry of Health for a food by prescription program

model. PEPFAR/Mozambique will sponsor a study tour to Kenya in early 2009 (led by FANTA) for Ministry

of Health, National AIDS Council, and the Social Welfare Ministry to observe and understand

implementation of AMPATH and FBP.

This activity will involve (1) competitive procurement of one or more fortified, blended flour products for

clinically malnourished PLWHA, PMTCT women during pregnancy and lactation, and early weaned infants

born to HIV-positive women (specifications based on foods presently used in the Mozambique (2) regular

delivery of the product(s) implementation sites (supported by PEFFAR partners); and (3) support to the

clinic sites on inventory control, storage, and record keeping (working with FANTA and the hospital and

health center clinical care partners).

A 30-day supply of food will be provided to patients who have undergone clinical nutrition assessment and

counseling, and who meet specific entry criteria, specifically: clinically malnourished patients with body

mass index (BMI) or mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) defined by Ministry of Health. Patients will

return on a monthly basis for reassessment and an additional month's food supply until their weight

stabilizes above an established exit cutoff (to be defined with MOH). Typically, patients are provided with 3-

6 months of supplementary food before exceeding the BMI/MUAC exit cutoff. In addition, supplementary

food will be provided on a monthly basis for women in select PMTCT programs during pregnancy and until

the infant is weaned (~4-6 mo of age), at which time food will continue to be provided on a monthly basis for

the infant until 2 years of age. FANTA will assist in establishing the product specifications and production

standards (e.g. GMP and safety) for the low-cost, nutrient-dense supplementary food(s) to be procured

under this activity.

In a later phase, contractor will supply food baskets in line with MOH food and nutrition guidelines and the

food by prescription program for all USG-supported clinical sites not within WFPs geographic focus areas.

The contractor will develop a food distribution strategy that ensures that all beneficiary sites receive the

recommended food commodities. The contractor will support the following activities: 1) Forecasting of food

commodities in close collaboration with AED/FANTA project, MOH, UNICEF, World Food Programme

(WFP), and Clinton Foundation/CHAI. 2) Development of a distribution strategy based on different

scenarios, including distribution within existing distribution system as well as outsourcing distribution of food

commodities to point of service, in cases where the existing system is not functioning. 3) Develop SOPs

and tools for USG clinical partner-supported sites, districts, and provinces to adequately manage food

commodities, including LMIS tools for reporting on food consumption, FIFO, storage at sites, and

distribution 4) Conduct assessments of provincial warehouses and district warehouses in collaboration with

the DPS/DDS and USG clinical partners supporting the provinces and districts to identify needs for

adequate storage and distribution of food stuffs 5) Provide assessment tools and SOPs to DDS/DPS and

USG partners for assessing storage space and conditions at PMTCT sites. 6) Provide ongoing technical

support in the logistics management and supervision of the management of food commodities.

USG will wrap food distribution around existing World Food Program (WFP) supported MCH clinics, as

WFP only supports food insecure provinces. USG will support non-WFP supported sites and a mapping

between USG and WFP activities will be conducted to ensure that all USG supported PMTCT sites are

supported either by WFP wrap around or the USG TBD partner.
