1.1. Objectives
Gavi seeks to recruit a technical assistance (TA) partner/firm (s) to provide technical support to FMoH and NPHCDA to improve and strengthen the quality and efficiency of campaigns and SIAs for immunisation and PHC services.

This TA aims to achieve the following specific objectives:

  1. Campaign planning. Support coordination and planning for various immunisation campaigns within and outside NPHCDA to leverage potential efficiencies across the different components of campaigns and SIAs. Develop clear campaign workplans together with the various stakeholders including outside the immunisation programme. This objective includes effective mapping of all related health campaigns to inform strategic as well as annual/routine campaign planning.
  2. Integration. Support the review of past and planned campaign reports and plans and inform effective integration of PHC and immunisation services where possible as well as opportunities for campaign integration. Support the development of a campaign integration framework for immunisation and PHC services – building upon the ongoing CAS implementation for Nigeria. This objective also aims to ensure that FMoH and NPHCDA is supported to coordinate and convene key stakeholders for strategic campaign planning as well as annual/routine/specific campaign planning.
  3. Implementation. Provide technical support towards effective and quality implementation of SIAs and campaigns, including integrated campaigns. Support to develop tools and approaches for effective implementation including readiness and reporting dashboards, and other core elements. This support includes measurement of zero-dose children through planned SIAs where feasible.
  4. Learning and Documentation. Support to develop a robust implementation research plan and documentation of key lessons on campaign effectiveness that can inform improvements at country level and reference for the global community. This objective should be aligned with the HCE/CAS monitoring, evaluation, research, learning and adaptation (MERLA) framework.
