This federal solicitation seeks proposals to strengthen governance systems and increase accountability, transparency and effectiveness in selected state and local governments in Nigeria. The purpose is to improve public financial management, procurement, monitoring and evaluation, and government responsiveness to citizens in key sectors including basic education, primary health care, and water, sanitation and hygiene. Proposals should facilitate sustainable strengthening of subnational governance by supporting local reform efforts and building on locally derived solutions. The US Agency for International Development Nigeria aims to award a contract by January 2019 to a contractor able to build on reforms already implemented elsewhere in Nigeria. The selected offeror will work in a consultative manner at the subnational level for an initial period of two years with options to extend for up to ten years total.
