Opportunity Information: Apply for 7200AA21APS00004IUWASHPASAR
USAID/Indonesia is seeking concept notes for an addendum under its Diversifying Partnerships in WASH (DiP-WASH) Annual Program Statement, focused specifically on the Indonesia Urban WASH Market activity known as IUWASH Pasar. The core purpose of this opportunity is to bring in partners that can help expand and strengthen local markets for water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) products and services in vulnerable urban areas across Indonesia. In practical terms, USAID is looking for approaches that do more than deliver one-off infrastructure or short-lived services; the emphasis is on catalyzing sustainable market systems so that households and communities in urban settings can reliably access and afford WASH solutions over time through functioning local supply chains, service providers, and financing mechanisms.
The opportunity is issued under USAID authority through the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961 (as amended) and is framed as an addendum to the existing DiP-WASH APS, meaning it sits within a broader partnership platform while narrowing attention to the IUWASH Pasar objective. USAID describes its wider development aim as supporting partner-country progress on their development trajectories, producing sustainable and resilient results, and improving how partnerships are formed and managed to deliver impact. For applicants, that translates into concept notes that clearly show how a proposed activity would accelerate urban WASH market growth, unlock participation from local actors, and create lasting incentives for the private sector and public institutions to keep services running and expanding after USAID support ends.
This is an earmark-category opportunity and the intended funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which typically involves substantial engagement by USAID during implementation compared with a standard grant. The activity is categorized under Environment, with CFDA/Assistance Listing number 98.001. Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning USAID is broadly open to different types of entities (local or international organizations, nonprofits, for-profits, universities, etc.), subject to any additional eligibility details that may be included in the full solicitation text. The award information indicates an expected single award, with a ceiling of up to $10,000,000, signaling that USAID anticipates one main implementer to lead the effort, likely with a network of partners, subcontractors, or subrecipients as appropriate.
Key dates are clearly defined. The issuance date is August 24, 2021. Questions were due by September 3, 2021 at 4:00 PM Jakarta time, and concept notes were due by September 21, 2021 at 4:00 PM Jakarta time. Overall, this call is essentially an invitation for applicants to propose market-based, scalable solutions for improving urban WASH access and service quality in Indonesia, with USAID funding intended to help stimulate and de-risk innovations, strengthen local market players, and expand the availability of WASH products and services for underserved urban communities.Apply for 7200AA21APS00004IUWASHPASAR
