Job Title:\u00a0Consultant for Landscape Analysis of Patent and Proprietary Medicine Vendors (PPMV) Brief<\/strong><\/p>\n Background<\/strong> In 2017, GHSC-PSM conducted an assessment in the three focus States to understand how MNCH commodities were being managed, including the existing supply chain landscape and challenges. Subsequently, the Project adopted a Human Centered Design (HCD) approach in collaboration with State level stakeholders to co-create interventions to improve the availability of and access to quality MNCH life-saving commodities. Findings from the assessment and the HCD work demonstrated the important role the private sector plays in access to MNCH commodities, particularly the PPMVs which are in may cases the first resort for medicines when health facilities are stocked-out.<\/p>\n The assessment recommended a number of solutions including establishing connections between the PPMVs and other stakeholders within the broader health ecosystem to effectively harness identified opportunities to optimize availability and access to quality-assured MNCH commodities across the 3 States. In the same vein, in a recent private sector supply chain landscape analysis conducted by USAID GHSC-PSM through Quintiles IMS in Nigeria, it was discovered that, a significant proportion of respondents (25 percent of those commenting on public-private sector synergies) suggested that the retail sector could strengthen healthcare delivery, either by referring patients to public sector facilities, or taking on some of the burden from the public sector by dispensing to patients in the private sector. Also, manufacturers indicated that the price of goods supplied to the public sector was always higher than that supplied to the private sector due to the risk of non-payment.<\/p>\n Given this critical role of the private sector, specifically PPMVs as known resource for MNCH commodities, the USAID GHSC-PSM project, therefore, seeks to conduct a landscape analysis of the PPMVs in the priority States to identify the opportunities and the most feasible option to collaborate with the PPMVs while working to develop a sustainable supply system, to ensure that the quality of the products they sell is optimal.<\/p>\n Principal Duties and Responsibilities (Essential Functions)<\/strong><\/p>\n Deliverables<\/strong> Deliverable, Deliverable Name and Due Date: Deliverable No. 2: Interim Activity Report (4 weeks after contract signing):<\/p>\n Deliverable No. 3: Findings, Key Results and Recommendations Slide Deck (8 weeks after contract signing):<\/p>\n Deliverable No. 4: Comprehensive Narrative Report, Slide Deck and appropriate Case study (8 weeks after contract signing):<\/p>\n Note:<\/strong>\u00a0The Consultant shall deliver to USAID GHSC-PSM the following deliverables, in accordance with the schedule set forth in the deliverables listed above.<\/p>\n Supervision of Consultant:<\/p>\n Job Qualifications<\/strong><\/p>\n
