Global Health Supply Chain (GHSC)

The US Agency for International Development Bureau for Management Office of the Assistant Administrator established this Master IDIQ on March 2, 2015, to procure health commodities and services and strengthen sustainable global health supply chains, but ordering closed on March 1, 2020, and the vehicle is no longer accepting new task orders.

The five task orders awarded under this vehicle total $346.7 million in combined potential value, with $308.2 million obligated (89% drawn). Ordering activity concentrated in 2016–2017, with three task orders issued in 2016 and two in 2017; the most recent award occurred on March 23, 2017. Work focuses on technical assistance to strengthen health commodity supply chain systems across multiple countries and health program areas, including HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, family planning, malaria, and pandemic disease preparedness. Task orders deployed Cost Plus Fixed Fee pricing and ranged from $1.5 million to $244.1 million in potential value, with performance durations extending from 2016 through 2025.

Chemonics International, Inc. dominates prime activity, holding two orders valued at $244.1 million combined (70% of potential value). Guidehouse LLP holds the remaining two orders at $101.1 million combined (29% of potential value), and Akesis Global Health, Inc. holds one small-business order valued at $1.5 million. Four of five orders carried no set-aside designation; one order was set aside for small business. Customer demand originated primarily from USAID regional bureaus and offices: the USAID Bureau for Management Office of the Assistant Administrator placed two orders ($215.9 million combined), while USAID Tanzania, Ghana, and South Africa each placed one order ($48.6 million, $29.7 million, and $52.5 million respectively). Performance locations spanned multiple African countries, including Tanzania, South Africa, Côte d'Ivoire, and francophone regions, with work serving both USAID and other U.S. government agencies alongside host-country governments and nongovernmental organizations.

This vehicle is closed to new pursuit.

The purpose of the Global Health Supply Chain (GHSC) Master IDIQ is to: procure health commodities and services and promote sustainable supply chains; inform and communicate USAID's plans with the public and key external stakeholders; facilitate and encourage advanced planning by partners for consideration of the follow on design; and to encourage competition.
