The Grantee invites submission of qualifications and proposal data (collectively referred to as the "Proposal") from interested U.S. firms which are qualified on the basis of experience and capability to develop a Technical Assistance for a Kenyatta National Hospital Resource Management and Infrastructure Project. The U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA) signed a US$396,125 Technical Assistance grant with Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH), the second largest hospital in sub-Saharan Africa. KNH will use this Technical Assistance grant to hire a U.S. consultant team. The selected U.S. consultant team would conduct the assessments through an independent review and by working directly with KNH staff and management to determine the various departments? needs within the hospital. The team would then conduct a series of stakeholder workshops to review their findings and present recommendations for strategic plans for managerial and hospital reorganization, equipment procurement, and the computerization of hospital functions and processes. Finally the team will assist KNH with developing procurement specifications for initial procurement plans. A summary of the Terms of Reference (TOR) for this project is as follows: Task 1: Organization and Human Resource Analysis. Task 2: Business Requirements Analysis. Task 3: Hospital Medical Equipment Strategic Plan. Task 4: Hospital Automation Strategic Plan. Task 5: Final Report. The U.S. firm selected will be paid in U.S. dollars from a $396,125 grant to the Grantee from USTDA. A detailed Request for Proposals (RFP), which includes requirements for the Proposal, the Terms of Reference, and a background definitional mission report are available from USTDA, at 1000 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 1600, Arlington, VA 22209-3901. Requests for the RFP should be faxed to the IRC, USTDA at 703-875-4009. In the fax, please include your firm?s name, contact person, address, and telephone number. Some firms have found that RFP materials sent by U.S. mail do not reach them in time for preparation of an adequate response.

Firms that want to send a courier to USTDA to retrieve the RFP should allow one hour after faxing the request to USTDA before scheduling a pick-up.
