LEAP Program Description Global Solutions Ventures (GSV) - a joint-venture partnership between ZemiTek, LLC and Dexis Consulting Group - is implementing the Long-term Exceptional Technical Assistance Project (LEAP Global), a mechanism originally used by USAID to battle against infectious diseases such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, neglected tropical diseases, and pandemic influenza. As of July 1, 2025, LEAP Global transitioned to the U.S. Department of State (DOS). This initiative aims to address the complex human resource challenges faced by national infectious disease programs in the USA-supported countries. The intervention of this project is to hire and embed technical expert advisors and subject matter experts within government entities. By directly embedding the technical expertise within the national programs, LEAP provides long-term, sustainable lifesaving support to empower host governments to lead and manage key aspects of their infectious disease portfolios and improve coordination between the U.S. Government and the host country. The Government of Kenya (GoK) and the Government of the United States entered into a five-year Health Cooperation Framework (HCF) in December 2025. Health programs include HIV, TB, malaria, Global Health Security (GHS), maternal child health (MCH), and polio. The Framework transitions USG health development assistance from an implementing partner model to direct GoK corporation embedded in the principles of enhanced efficiency, alignment with country priorities and the time-bound achievement of sustainable self-reliance of country health systems. The framework plans for USG resources to flow through the GoK financial systems to the Ministry of Health, its agencies, and the forty-seven counties with metered co-investment of Kes 115 Billion from the GoK, attainment of performance metrics and accountably reporting. To manage this transition, the Ministry of Health has established a Program Management Unit (PMU), operating under three thematic arms: Service Delivery and Transition, Strategic Interventions, and Project Administration. The PMU serves as an execution mechanism for the Joint Health Cooperation Framework Steering Committee (JHCFSC), chaired by the Principal Secretary, State Department for Medical Services (PS, SDMS). The Ministry requires a specialist HCF Project Management Advisor to work alongside the PMU - providing independent analytical support, advisory inputs, and technical counsel across the full scope of Framework implementation. The Advisor's contribution is intellectual, analytical, and providing the executive with convincing evidence and basis for decision-making, and institutional accountability during the planning and implementation of the health corporation framework. Overall Objective of Assignment To strengthen the PMU's capacity to implement the Health Cooperation Framework with integrity, efficiency, and full GoK ownership - by providing high-quality, independent advisory support across portfolio management, fiscal architecture with emphasis on the G2G compliance, governance, and institutional development for the duration of the PMU's establishment and operationalization phase.
