ME&A is a major partner on Connexus Corporation’s team for US Government missions’ newly awarded Compliance and Capacity Strengthening for Diverse Partnerships (CCSDP) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract. As a subcontractor, ME&A will leverage the firm’s extensive expertise in monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) to support the program.

The CCSDP is a five-year, multi-award, $250 million initiative funded by US Government missions’ Bureau for Democracy, Development, and Innovation’s Local, Faith, and Transformative Partnerships (LFT) Hub, which provides technical support to US Government missions and operating units in their engagement with non-traditional partners, including local actors, new partners, faith-based organizations, and minority-serving institutions. The contract aims to strengthen US Government missions’ engagement with these organizations and networks to deliver locally led solutions.

With a strong focus on advancing US Government missions’ localization agenda, the CCSDP centers on four strategic areas:

  • Support for Mission Staff to Improve Local Partnerships: Providing technical assistance and training to empower US Government mission staff to effectively collaborate with local partners.
  • Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning Support: Delivering robust MEL services to assess program performance, guide decision-making, and promote adaptive management.
  • Risk Mitigation Support: Developing and operationalizing strategies to manage and reduce risks in partnerships with local entities.
  • Capacity Strengthening for Local Actors: Building the organizational and technical capabilities of local organizations to ensure readiness for direct US Government missions funding and implementation.

The overarching goal of the CCSDP is twofold: to ensure local organizations have the necessary tools and resources to thrive as US Government missions partners and to enable US Government missions to effectively manage risks associated with local partner implementation.
