Guide to Global Fund Policies on Procurement and Supply Management of Health Products

Quamed Support

Published on - 26-Sep 08:07pm

The guide provides a comprehensive framework for the procurement and supply management of health products financed by the Global Fund. The guide's primary purpose is to delineate the policies and principles that oversee these processes. The term "health products" encompasses pharmaceuticals, diagnostic tools, vector control items, and single-use health products.

The guide emphasizes the responsibility of grant recipients in executing the program and ensuring adherence to the grant agreement. Procurement and supply management activities are pivotal for program success. The Global Fund has thus established policies to ensure timely procurement of quality-assured health products, cost-efficiency, secure distribution systems, appropriate product usage, and monitoring of all related activities.

The guide also underscores the importance of adhering to applicable laws, ensuring transparency, and achieving value for money. It promotes competition and emphasizes the need for efficient and effective procurement processes. Quality assurance systems are vital, and the guide mandates the adoption of the WHO Model Quality Assurance System for Procurement Agencies. Additionally, the guide encourages the adoption of Global Data Standards to enhance supply chain efficiency and traceability.

To prevent product diversion, recipients must establish robust operating procedures and controls. Capacity assessment and capacity building are also integral components, ensuring that recipients possess the necessary skills and systems to manage procurement and supply effectively. The guide is a dynamic document, subject to periodic updates, ensuring that it remains relevant and aligned with the evolving needs of the Global Fund and its stakeholders.
