PSP-One End of Project Report

The PSP-One project, implemented from September 17, 2004 to September 29, 2009, was the first of 15 task orders awarded by USAID's Office of Population and Reproductive Health under its Private Sector Program. The project's primary aim was to increase the sustainable provision and use of family planning and other health products and services. Within the broader Private Sector Program, PSP-One also served as USAID's primary vehicle to support core-funded activities related to private sector innovation, collaboration, knowledge sharing, and research, monitoring and evaluation. For USAID missions that did not wish to issue their own Private Sector Program task order, PSP-One also offered a mechanism to program field support. During its five-year lifespan, the project applied its expertise in 31 countries across Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. PSP-One activities spanned a broad range of technical areas including public-private partnerships, social marketing and pharmaceutical partnerships, private provider networks and social franchising, “base-of-the-pyramid” market-based partnerships, behavior change communications, policy, quality improvement, and health financing. This PSP-One final report shares PSP-One's most important findings and lessons learned through the presentation of 14 country case studies and a summary of the project's tools and global research.
