Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH20 2062
This funding opportunity is a CDC cooperative agreement under PEPFAR focused on strengthening and modernizing Tanzania's national health information systems (HIS), with an emphasis on HIV and broader health sector needs. The goal is to support the Government of Tanzania (GOT) in managing, coordinating, scaling, and continuously improving the digital and data systems that underpin patient care and national health program oversight. Rather than being a narrow, single-system IT project, the opportunity is framed as a coordinated national effort to build, deploy, integrate, and maintain interoperable information systems that can keep pace with current and emerging priorities across the health sector.
The notice anticipates approximately $4,500,000 in total funding for Year 1, contingent on the availability of funds, and plans for up to two awards. While the listing notes an "Award Ceiling for Year 1" of $0, that generally signals that a specific per-award cap is not being set in the announcement rather than implying no funds will be awarded; the key funding signal is the stated total anticipated amount for the fiscal year. The instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC expects substantial involvement during implementation, with ongoing collaboration, shared planning, and technical oversight rather than a hands-off grant.
The core work is to help GOT and national stakeholders organize the end-to-end lifecycle of HIS development and deployment: planning, building, implementation, scale-up, and continuous modernization. A major theme is coordination: the recipient is expected to bring structure to a complex environment where multiple systems, programs, and partners operate at once. This includes managing vendors and/or sub-partners who may be responsible for software development, hosting, integration, maintenance, user support, or training, and ensuring their work aligns with national architecture, standards, and timelines. The recipient is also expected to support the evolution and integration of the national HIS so that systems do not remain isolated and data can move reliably across platforms.
A central expected outcome is improved ability of information systems to support high-quality, patient-centered services. In practical terms, this points to systems that help clinicians and facilities deliver better care by having timely access to complete and accurate patient information, and by making workflows more efficient and consistent. Another major outcome is better data quality and stronger use of that data at all levels of the health system. The opportunity highlights not just collecting data, but ensuring it is accurate, complete, and usable, and then actively using it for monitoring, evaluation, and programmatic decision-making from facility level up through district, regional, and national leadership.
Interoperability and linked systems are explicitly emphasized. The recipient is expected to increase the ability of systems to use data from connected sources, which typically includes connecting facility-level records and reporting tools with national registries, laboratory systems, logistics and supply chain systems, and other priority platforms. The intention is that Tanzania's HIS environment functions as an integrated ecosystem rather than disconnected software products, enabling more reliable tracking of services, outcomes, and program performance, including HIV program objectives under PEPFAR.
The recipient must collaborate closely with GOT and other implementing partners to achieve objectives and, critically, to ensure sustainability under GOT ownership. Sustainability here implies designing and deploying systems in ways that the government can operate, govern, and finance over time, including building local capacity, strengthening governance and standards, and avoiding solutions that depend indefinitely on external technical teams. Finally, the opportunity calls for process and outcome evaluation checks to monitor progress, meaning the recipient should routinely measure whether the project is being implemented as intended and whether it is producing the desired improvements in system performance, data quality, and real-world use of information for clinical and program decisions.
