Prathiba Media Network

Prathiba Media Network is a non-profit community development corporation operating as a sub-recipient on federal grants administered by the US Agency for International Development, with no prime contract or grant awards and no independent contracting vehicle presence.

PMN's federal footprint consists of three sub-awards under USAID programs, all totaling $229 thousand obligated across a two-year window (2022–2024). The vendor operates exclusively as a sub-recipient rather than a prime grantee. All three awards flow through USAID Sri Lanka as the customer agency, and all center on anti-trafficking and labor-migration programming in Sri Lanka. PMN's two most recent sub-awards both sit under the Safe Foundation as prime grantee: a March 2024 sub-award supporting the ECCT (Economic Citizenship and Community Trafficking) project, under which PMN implements interventions in two southern districts (Matara and Hambanthota) focused on combating trafficking in persons and promoting safe migration among vulnerable populations including low-income communities, migrant workers, and refugees; and a November 2022 sub-award under the same prime grantee with similar scope. A third sub-award from February 2022 sits under Management Systems International, Inc. as prime grantee. Activity shows two awards in 2022 and one in 2024, with no awards recorded in 2023; the most recent sub-award dates to March 2024, placing the vendor outside active federal funding for the past two years. PMN does not appear on any federal IDIQs, GWACs, or BPAs, and competes only as a sub-recipient within USAID's grant ecosystem rather than in the federal prime contractor or multiple-award vehicle market.
