Purpose statement

The purpose of this Request for Proposal (RFP) is to solicit proposals from agencies with experience in conducting population-based surveys. The selected agency will conduct a post-mass drug administration (MDA) coverage evaluation survey (CES) on Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTDs) in Senegal. The RFP allows the interested agencies to demonstrate their ability to conduct this activity. The RFP is issued as a public notice to ensure all interested, qualified and eligible agencies legally registered have a fair opportunity to submit proposals. The entity will be commissioned to provide the deliverables outlined in the later sections in this RFP.

Coverage survey objective

Coverage assessment surveys are a valuable tool for assessing the performance of MDA programs. Coverage assessments are demographic surveys designed to accurately estimate preventive chemotherapy (PC) coverage while avoiding distortions and errors that may discredit reported coverage. This investigation will:

Validate reported coverage rates;
Estimate coverage by age, gender, education level, urban/rural, by disease(s) treated;
Assess the communication channels through which people receive information about the MDA campaign;
Collect information on the decision of people to take medicines offered during MDA and their knowledge of NTDs.
