Opportunity Information: Apply for 7200AA23APS00007
The Private Sector Collaboration Pathway (PSCP) Annual Program Statement (APS) is a USAID-wide mechanism designed to make it easier for USAID and private sector actors to build development collaborations together through a structured co-creation process. Issued by USAID's Bureau for Inclusive Growth, Partnerships and Innovation (IPI), through the Private Sector Engagement Hub, this opportunity is meant to encourage early, proactive engagement with companies and other private sector participants to jointly identify problems worth solving, define commercially and development-relevant opportunities, and then co-design market-based or market-oriented approaches to address them. While USAID signals a preference for initiatives that advance market-based solutions and enterprise-driven development, the scope is intentionally broad and can support many kinds of private sector collaboration as long as they align with USAID's Private Sector Engagement Policy objectives and are considered valuable by USAID Missions, Bureaus, or Independent Offices.
A key point is that this APS is not a traditional competition like a Request for Applications (RFA) or Request for Proposals (RFP). Instead of asking applicants to submit a fully developed proposal against a fixed set of program requirements, it lays out a pathway for collaboration and co-creation that may lead to an invitation or opportunity to submit a concept to a specific USAID Mission, Bureau, or Independent Office (often abbreviated as M/B/IO). Concepts submitted under the PSCP APS are expected to show meaningful private sector engagement and evidence that the idea was shaped jointly with those private sector partners, not simply bolted on at the end. USAID then reviews those concepts and decides whether to continue the co-creation process described in the APS, which could eventually result in an award or other form of supported collaboration.
Funding under this APS is not pre-set or centrally reserved. The opportunity does not come with a dedicated pot of money, and there is no stated award ceiling (listed as 0), which is another sign that awards and budgets depend on the particular Mission/Bureau/IO that might sponsor a collaboration. Any funding would need to be requested and supported by the specific USAID unit that the partners want to work with, and USAID explicitly reserves the right to fund any, all, or none of the concepts received. In practical terms, the PSCP APS functions as an entry point and a standardized process for building partnerships, but the actual financing decision and eventual award details are determined later and are tied to the priorities and resources of the USAID operating unit involved.
In terms of eligibility, the listing indicates "Unrestricted" eligible applicants, suggesting a wide range of entities can participate, consistent with the private sector engagement focus. The opportunity is categorized as discretionary, the instrument type is listed as "Other," and the funding activity category is also "Other," reflecting that this is a flexible partnership pathway rather than a standard grant program with a single thematic bucket. The CFDA/Assistance Listing number provided is 98.001. The opportunity number is 7200AA23APS00007, it was created on April 27, 2023, and the original closing date shown is April 26, 2025, indicating that concepts may be accepted over an extended period rather than within a short, one-time submission window.
Administrative notes in the announcement emphasize that applicants are responsible for downloading the full APS and any amendments from Grants.gov and verifying they have the complete and current set of documents. USAID also notes it is not responsible for data errors that might occur during transmission or file conversion. For technical issues related to registration or accessing the APS through Grants.gov, applicants are directed to the Grants.gov Helpdesk by phone (1-800-518-4726) or email (support@grants.gov). Overall, this APS is best understood as a standing, flexible doorway into USAID-private sector co-creation, where strong private sector involvement and a credible market-oriented approach are central, and where funding is mission-driven and contingent on alignment with specific USAID operating unit priorities and available resources.Apply for 7200AA23APS00007
