Capabilities

More than 140 organizations, from established USAID implementing partners to new and potential partners, have hired us to support their USAID proposals and projects or deliver specialized trainings. To date, Keylime has helped 37 new and local partners win and implement USAID awards and contracts. We offer our signature Marketplace—home to 500 consultants and vendors across 75 countries—to provide demand-driven local capacity strengthening services. Examples of our experience include:

• As a subcontractor on the USAID Partnerships Incubator, Keylime provides organizational capacity strengthening and training services to help new target partners work effectively with USAID and become stronger development actors. Keylime has provided rapid, flexible technical assistance—in English, French, and Arabic—to 22 new and/or local partners in financial management, award administration, compliance, human resource management, MEL, business development, and strategic communications. We are also supporting USAID through services like a partner landscape assessment and the development of Acquisition & Assistance Guides on innovative procurement solutions.
• The Innovative Finance activity, led by Chemonics, works with USAID’s Professional Development and Training Division to create a foundational understanding of pay-for-results approaches to the design, development, and financing of USAID awards. As a subcontractor, Keylime has led the design of three 60-minute, self-paced training modules on phased acquisition, cost-plus award fee contracts, and fixed amount awards and developed an accompanying toolkit of resources for Acquisition and Assistance staff. We also led the development of a white paper on USAID's use of fixed amount awards, managing risk under them, and how they can be leveraged as a tool in localization.
• For the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs and its USAID-funded Nigeria Electoral Empowerment for Civil Society Project, Keylime strengthened the capacity of three local sub-grantees to raise funds from international donors by working closely with them to develop and deliver tailored training and coaching. Keylime guided the partners through donor mapping exercises based on their technical expertise and experience to help them diversify their funding streams and promote organizational sustainability.
