Request for Proposals for Conducting Accreditation Survey at Designated Hospitals

Management Sciences for Health (MSH) is currently implementing the five-year USAID-funded Health Systems Strengthening Next Activity, or USAID Ireme, a collaborative initiative that aims to improve the resilience of the Rwandan health system by optimizing available resources and ensuring quality and equitable health outcomes for all Rwandans. As part of its comprehensive approach to ensure provision of high quality and safe health care services to the people of Rwanda, the Ministry of Health (MOH) has adopted healthcare facility accreditation as a priority strategy to create a sustainable process for implementing and measuring achievements in continuous improvement of healthcare services throughout the country.

To support this activity, the MOH, in collaboration with USAID Ireme (led by MSH), intends to procure and engage local organizations to conduct the 2024 hospital accreditation survey to measure compliance towards quality standards in designated public sector provincial and district hospitals using the Rwanda Hospital Accreditation Standards and the Rwanda Hospital Accreditation Standards Performance Assessment Toolkit.

Offerors should submit a separate full proposal for each cluster for which they intend to bid. MSH is not responsible for any costs incurred by the Offeror for preparing, submitting, or revising the proposal.

All communications regarding this RFP should be addressed via email: rwhssbids@msh.org
