Common use of Public-Private Partnerships Clause in Contracts

Public-Private Partnerships. Effective Date: 12/23/2019 Public-Private Partnerships including Global Development Alliances (GDAs) awards, private sector engagements and other Global Development Lab instruments, provide resource leverage (see below) from sources outside USAID. Public-Private Partnerships may result in the award of a grant or cooperative agreement. The Planner should consult closely with the Office of Innovation and Development Alliances, Global Partnerships Division (IDEA/PS), the Assistance Executive, the Office of the General Counsel or RLO when developing the program description for these types of awards. Additional guidance may be found at the GDA Web site (available on the USAID internal website only). Leveraging represents all of the non-USAID resources (excluding cost sharing) that are expected to be applied to a program. Leveraging is limited to awards that result from Public-Private Partnerships. Leveraging includes resources that third-parties bring to the program without necessarily providing them to the recipient of the USAID assistance award. These parties may include the host government, private foundations, businesses, or individuals. The recipient is not responsible for meeting the leveraging amounts/resources and leveraging is not subject to audit. Assistance awards that result from Public-Private Partnerships may include cost sharing. If the award includes cost sharing, the recipient must meet the cost-sharing amount and requirements, and the cost-sharing is subject to audit. For more information regarding leveraging, please refer to the GDA home page and USAID Global Partnerships (available on the USAID internal website only).
