LEAP Program Description

Global Solutions Ventures (GSV) – a joint-venture partnership between ZemiTek, LLC and Dexis Consulting Group – is implementing the Long-term Exceptional Technical Assistance Project (LEAP Global), a mechanism originally used by USAID to battle against infectious diseases such as malaria, HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, neglected tropical diseases, and pandemic influenza. As of July 1, 2025, LEAP Global transitioned to the U.S. Department of State (DOS). This initiative aims to address the complex human resource challenges faced by national infectious disease programs in the USA-supported countries.

The intervention of this project is to hire and embed technical expert advisors and subject matter experts within government entities. By directly embedding the technical expertise within the national programs, LEAP provides long-term, sustainable lifesaving support to empower host governments to lead and manage key aspects of their infectious disease portfolios and improve coordination between the U.S. Government and the host country.

About The Position

The U.S. Government (USG) provides substantial health assistance to Nigeria across HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, global health security, maternal and child health, immunization, and supply-chain strengthening programs. As Nigeria advances toward greater country ownership, USG will increase the expansion of life saving health activities through G2G with the Federal Ministry of Health. Expansion of life saving health activities will require applying state-of-the-art technical guidance and adhering to quality implementation. USG-funded G2G agreements—including contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, interagency agreements, purchase orders, and other assistance instruments require strict adherence to U.S. federal acquisition and assistance regulations. These include policies administered by Nigeria’s Department of State Health Assistance Office.

In Nigeria, the Health Assistance Office (HAO) supports the U.S. Department of State’s Health Foreign Assistance programs, which aligns with the America First Global Health Strategy. This strategy prioritizes the interests of Americans while contributing to global health improvements, including saving lives and strengthening health systems in Nigeria. HAO partners with the Ministry of Health in collaboration with the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Walter Reed-Department of War, and other U.S. Government (USG) agencies, as well as international donors, to implement health assistance-related programs.

To support a smooth transition toward the Government of Nigeria (GoN), the Department of State seeks to embed experienced technical experts who will provide technical expertise on in the implementation of integrated health programs across the Ministry of Health Departments and Agencies (NACA, NASCP, NCDC, NMEP, NPHCDA, NPSCMP and or NTBLCP). The technical experts will also oversee G2G agreement to ensure compliance with DOS's foreign assistance requirements). The specialist(s) will support the Ministry’s effort to expand the sector wide approach which places an emphasizes on utilizing unified efforts to improve health outcomes, reduce fragmentation and ensure equitable access to health care for all Nigerians.
