Procurement and Supply Management

The USAID Global Health Supply Chain Program-Procurement and Supply Management (GHSC-PSM) project enhances the health care experience in the communities we serve through transformative supply chain solutions.  The project is supported with funding from the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI), USAID’s family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH) program, and USAID’s maternal and child health (MCH) program, which equitably share the cost of the project.

The project is supported with funding from the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative (PMI), USAID’s family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH) program, and USAID’s maternal and child health (MCH) program, which equitably share the cost of the project.

GHSC-PSM purchases and delivers health commodities, strengthens national supply chain systems, and provides global supply chain leadership to ensure lifesaving health supplies reach those in need, when they need them. By working closely with country partners and suppliers worldwide, the project aims to promote wellbeing and help countries develop sustainable supply chain systems.

The project supports five health areas: HIV/AIDS, malaria, voluntary family planning and reproductive health (FP/RH), maternal and child health, and emerging public health threats such as Zika, Ebola and COVID-19, and hinges on three key objectives:

1. Commodity Procurement 
   
   Ensuring the continued availability of quality public health commodities on time and at best value to save lives and provide the most health for the money.
    
2. Health Systems Technical Assistance
   
   Fostering resilient and sustainable in-country supply chains that harness practical, cutting-edge solutions in order to maximize the availability and high-quality management of public health commodities.
    
3. Global Collaboration
   
   Engaging partners throughout the world to promote adoption of global standards, security of health commodities and the markets that support them, and the use of data to guide effective decision-making by all who provide public health commodities.
