Report: Effective Partnering and Procurement Reform External Listening Tour Summary Report

To launch Effective Partnering and Procurement Reform (EPPR), the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) engaged in an external listening tour (ELT) with a diverse range of external stakeholders, and also consulted with our own staff. The goal of the ELT was to consult with our implementing partners and other experts from across the development spectrum to receive and incorporate into the reforms lessons learned and recommendations related to USAID’s design and procurement processes. No previous attempt to change the way USAID does its core business has solicited, and received, more input.
