The United States Agency for International Development in Indonesia (USAID/Indonesia) intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for "Flagship Maternal and Newborn Health (MNH) Activity".  This is a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) completion type contract, with a total estimated cost in the range of $50 to $65million, covering a total estimated period of five years.  The contract period is comprised of a basic period of three years and two one-year option periods.

The purpose of Flagship MNH Activity is to contribute to Indonesia's national goals to reduce maternal and newborn mortality by providing catalytic support to improve essential maternal and newborn services targeting the poorest and most vulnerable population.  This activity will provide a platform to facilitate a MNH movement in Indonesia that brings together a variety of stakeholders with diverse background and incentives to co-define, co-create, co-finance and implement sustainable and scalable approaches to improve maternal newborn survival, specifically among the poorest and most vulnerable population in ten focus provinces.
