Request for Proposal For Provision Of Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention End Of Round Survey in South Sudan

Work Detail

Request for proposals are invited for Provision of Seasonal Malaria Chemoprevention End of Round Survey in Malaria Consortium South Sudan Programme The main objective of this survey is to measure essential SMC indicators on a national scale (the 2 counties), to obtain valid, relevant, and comparable information with that from other countries implementing SMC, and to better guide the National Malaria Control Program (NMCP) in ensuring the quality of implementation of this vital intervention over the coming years The data will be collected on mobile devices and transferred to the platform commissioned for this purpose by malaria Consortium (Survey CTO). The Survey CTO software used includes a questionnaire provided by malaria Consortium at least two weeks before the start of the survey to facilitate the collection of data on smartphones (provided by malaria Consortium or also by the firm according to its preference). Malaria Consortium will support the training of investigators. It will also provide relevant passwords and permissions to facilitate the use of Survey CTO by survey investigators and supervisors. Real-time data quality checks will be performed as data is collected. Survey data collection and data management process: Malaria Consortium will provide an adequate sampling methodology to arrive at a representative sample (including the selection of localities/sites, as well as the selection of individual households in these areas/sites). As for the main outcome of the study (coverage of eligible children with MS), we expect an accuracy of at least 3% for the county. This clarification concerns children eligible on Day one. Nevertheless, the minimum sample size of structures/households required and desired will be around 3500; this size is already specified by malaria Consortium. The survey should provide information on each monthly cycle (mass distribution), for a total of four cycles (while giving results for the four independent cycles as well as consistency between cycles). During the collection of data in the field, Malaria Consortium represented by its Monitoring evaluation team will participate in the supervision to ensure that the collection is carried out in accordance with what is described in the technical offer. This also has the advantage of improving the quality of the data through working sessions with the team in the field. Malaria Consortium will be responsible for the design of the survey including the questionnaire. Where necessary, the bidder, supervisors and data collection officers will be trained in the use of the SurveyCTO data collection mobile app and specific questionnaires by dedicated Malaria Consortium staff.
