PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.
The purpose of this contract is to provide a full range of integrated logistics support services to USAID/Ethiopia to manage 210,000,000 male condoms over a period of three years. Activities include customs clearance and condom distribution to a third party vendor or non-governmental organization. This will also require management, inventory, security, receipt, store, transport, distribution, handling and shipment. Services do not include any contact between the Contractor and the final end user population.
This contract's services (logistic support) are in support of USAID/Ethiopia's HIV prevention activities, specifically nationwide condom distribution. This contract will result in dramatically expanded access by Ethiopians to affordable condoms. This will occur in coordination with Government of Ethiopia and US government as each partner intensifies HIV prevention activities in urban and peri-urban areas where HIV prevalence is above the national average of 2.2 percent.
Objectives - USAID/Ethiopia expects to strengthen its current HIV prevention portfolio through this contract in several ways. Primary among these is to increase coverage of and accessibility to condoms through third party commercial vendors including individual marketers and non-governmental organizations where populations at risk of HIV infection through unprotected sexual intercourse access condoms. As of April 2009 USAID/Ethiopia and CDC/Ethiopia supported 2,622 targeted condom outlets, a four-fold increase from approximately 550 in April 2008. Despite this achievement, the number of condom outlets remains lower then anticipated and significantly lower than necessary, due to a lack of efficient condom distribution networks to urban and peri-urban populations. Existing targeted condom outlets largely exclude the vast majority of most at risk population group members due to the limited nature of the network. Existing U.S. government distribution networks are fragmented with high transaction costs to support coordination of condom distribution and programming. In addition, USAID/Ethiopia remains concerned that stock outs of condoms occur among intermediary vendors and non-governmental organizations, which serve as the main suppliers to the final end user population. Therefore USAID/Ethiopia anticipates the contractor will provide logistics support services to distribute 210,000,000 condoms (70,000,000 per year) up from approximately 25,000,000 condoms distributed in U.S. fiscal year 2008.
Target Population and Geographic Scope - This project will have national coverage and focus distribution to vendors marketing to at risk populations including MARPs, workplaces, military, university students and refugee camps. USAID/Ethiopia expects the contractor to maximize coverage of condom distribution in areas of above average national HIV prevalence in a mixture of approximately 20,000 service outlets including third party commercial vendor and non-governmental organizations. The main implementing partner will implement through a local partner, overtime this partner will be able to support national condom logistics independently.
Operating Constraints - The contractor will provide logistics support to 210,000,000 condoms over the life of the contract. USAID estimates that 70,000,000 condoms will be made available each year. These services do not include any contact between the Contractor and the final end user population.
Monitoring, Evaluation and Reporting - The offeror will provide quarterly progress reports to USAID including: Annual and quarterly implementation and distribution plan; and Annual and quarterly progress report on condom distribution and sales.
