The initiative focuses on solutions that are grounded in science and technology, and are robust, cost-effective, and scalable. This approach promotes the expansion of ideas, engages new actors in creating solutions and brings to the fore solutions that might not otherwise receive support. The inaugural USAID Grand Challenge for Development, ―Saving Lives at Birth: A Grand Challenge for Development, targeted improvements in maternal and newborn health. Under another Grand Challenge, USAID, World Vision and the Australian Agency for International Development are partnering to launch a multi-year initiative that seeks to improve early grade reading outcomes in low-resource settings called, ―All Children Reading: A Grand Challenge for Development.‖ Through this fund, USAID is working to bring clarity and attention to the problem, to articulate the fundamental barriers to success, and to fund the design and implementation of solutions. The Agency expects to achieve substantial global impacts in early grade reading by leveraging the power of research, capitalizing on innovation, catalyzing partnerships, and increasing the utilization of science, technology, and 21st century infrastructure. Overall, the Grand Challenges for Development will increase the pool of solvers through open innovation and public engagement to USAID Open Government Plan v2.0. false2.1.22.1Prioritized list of systems (datasets)90 days2012/08/21text2-1-2-nameU.S. Overseas Loans and Grants (Greenbook) USAID Development Credit Authority Guarantee Data: Loan Transactions text2-1-2-description These data are U.S economic and military assistance by country from 1946 to 2010. This is the authoritative data set of U.S. foreign assistance. The data set is used to report U.S foreign assistance to Congress as required by the Foreign Assistance Act, Section 634. USAID’s Development Credit Authority (DCA) works with investors, local financial institutions, and development organizations to design and deliver investment alternatives that unlock financing for U.S. Government priorities. USAID guarantees encourage private lenders to extend financing to underserved borrowers in new sectors and regions. This dataset is the complete list of all private loans made under USAID's DCA since it was established in 1999.

Its objective is to get Missions the information systems they need to manage their operations well and to complete information management tasks quicker, with greater accuracy and quality. The way in which the Agency is working to accomplish this objective is to first standardize Mission business processes for functions like budgeting, judging program performance, and Monitoring and Evaluation (M and E). This information will provide the outline of how IT capabilities can be updated, developed, or purchased to enable those business processes, thus satisfying the future business needs.

ADS 545 details the security policies, consistent with Federal regulations, mandates and directives that serve as the highest-level basis for USAID ISS. In accordance with the Contract Clause Guide for Unclassified Information System Security Systems and Services, Contracting Officers must ensure that appropriate ISS requirements are accurately specified, funded, and enforced for all USAID ISS acquisition, operation, and maintenance contracts under their supervision. The guide provides procedures for including ISS requirements in the acquisition of information systems and services. This guide applies to all contracts, regardless of the source of funding, when the contracted systems or services will be connected to, or require the use of, a USAID general support system (GSS) in USAID/W or at the Missions. USAID staff may also apply the guide whenever a requestor, an acquisition or contracting authority, or the cognizant designated Information System Security Office (ISSO) believes it would be in the best interest of protecting USAID’s information systems. false6.3 Ensure all new digital services follow digital services and customer experience improvement guidelines 12 months2013/05/23select6-3-statusnot-startedin-progresscompletedcompletedtextarea6-3-policyfalse7.2 Optimize at least two existing priority customer-facing services for mobile use and publish a plan for improving additional existing services 12 months2013/05/23select7-2-statusnot-startedin-progresscompletedcompletedtextarea7-2-policy The Mobility Strategic Initiative supports USAID’s desire to expand the delivery of existing and new services to operate on portable computing devices using mobile web applications. This supports the M/CIO’s overarching vision for USAID users to have web-based, Internet access to applications and services using Cloud-based technologies. As most IT services will be presented through web portal technologies, where users can access an enterprise portal through their web browser, there will be instances where performance and functionality requirements will drive the M/CIO to develop or upgrade applications for optimal use on mobile devices. Some examples of these requirements include access to a local data store and the need for availability in the absence of network coverage. Other may include the need for a specific device feature such as display, navigation methods and screen resolutions, or functionality such as Global Positioning System (GPS) embedded within the application. The M/CIO will develop and modernize applications driven by mission and business needs in proper balance with controlling costs for what could be considerable investments in mobile solutions.
