Opportunity Information: Apply for RFI 612 19 L2P 01
The Malawi Learn to Perform (L2P) Activity is a USAID/Malawi opportunity designed to set up a centralized, on-demand platform that can procure monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) support services for the mission and its partners. In practical terms, the mechanism is meant to function as a kind of shared service hub that USAID can draw on to strengthen how it tracks progress, evaluates results, and uses evidence to adapt programs in real time, with the broader aim of improving development outcomes across its portfolio in Malawi.
A major focus of L2P is capacity strengthening, not only within USAID/Malawi but also among the mission's key strategic partners. The description explicitly names a wide range of stakeholders who would benefit from improved MEL capacity, including implementing partners, government entities, civil society organizations, donors, academia, and private sector actors. The intent is to make MEL more consistent, higher quality, and more routinely applied across the development ecosystem, so that partners are better able to measure performance, learn from implementation, and align efforts around shared development objectives.
The opportunity also emphasizes a strong preference for using local expertise whenever it is feasible and does not compromise quality. Local firms and organizations are encouraged to provide services even if they are engaged indirectly through subcontracts or subgrants. In addition, the language suggests that local organizations, working in partnership with USAID, should be able to access the mechanism to procure certain services themselves. This points to a model that supports localization by building Malawian institutional capacity and growing the role of local service providers in the MEL market.
From the funding notice details, this was issued by the Agency for International Development (USAID), specifically USAID in Lilongwe, Malawi. The posting is identified as "Other" for both the opportunity category and the funding instrument type, and it falls under a science and technology / research and development activity category, with CFDA number 98.001. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning any type of entity could respond, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may have been included in the full solicitation text. The notice anticipated a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1). The award ceiling is listed as 0, which typically indicates that a maximum amount was not specified in the public synopsis or that funding would be determined later based on the final scope, mechanism structure, or available budget.
Key dates in the notice show it was created on June 26, 2019, with an original closing date of July 24, 2019. The opportunity number is RFI 612 19 L2P 01, suggesting it may have been released as a request for information (RFI) to gather input from potential providers before a formal procurement or award process. Overall, L2P is best understood as a mission-wide enabling mechanism intended to improve how evidence is generated and used in decision-making, while simultaneously expanding the participation and capability of Malawian organizations to deliver and manage high-quality MEL support services.Apply for RFI 612 19 L2P 01
