USAID/Cambodia Sustainable System Strengthening for Quality Improvement (3S-QI)

The USAID/Cambodia Mission has developed a DRAFT Program Framework for a prospective Sustainable System Strengthening for Quality Improvement. 3S-QI is a new five-year health system strengthening activity to improve the capacity of both public and private health systems in Cambodia to provide high quality priority health services, including maternal and child health, and infectious diseases. Building on USAID’s previous investments in health system strengthening and lessons learned from other stakeholders, this activity will further implement the Royal Government of Cambodia’s (RGC) Health Strategic Plan phase 4 (HSP4) in light of the decentralization policy. 3S-QI will work with national and subnational health systems to strengthen the implementation of national policies and standards, to improve private sector quality monitoring systems, and to improve the capacity of providers and institutions to provide better and more sustainable healthcare services. These include, where permissible, and within USAID’s manageable interest, assisting to build an overarching enabling environment for Private Sector Engagement (PSE).

The purpose of this RFI is to provide industry and stakeholders an opportunity to review, comment, clarify, provide suggestions for improvements, and enhance areas in the Program Framework. The anticipated award value is in the range of $20-$30 million. The Draft Program Framework is provided in the following pages.
