## Summary

The London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine has engaged in a public procurement process for the Transform Project, focused on reducing maternal deaths from postpartum haemorrhage. The project, aligned with the 2023 WHO PPH roadmap, incorporates community engagement and advocacy activities targeted primarily in Nigeria due to high maternal mortality rates. This procurement is at the award stage, with WOMEN ADVOCATES RESEARCH AND DOCUMENTATION CENTRE (W.A.R.D C) in Lagos identified as the supplier. The contract, valued at £180,720, commenced on 9 March 2026 and concludes on 30 November 2026. A direct award procurement method was employed, given the supplier's expertise in maternal health and advocacy in target communities.

Businesses specialising in health and social work services, particularly those with experience in community engagement and advocacy for maternal health, stand to gain significantly from this tender. The contract offers opportunities for growth in delivering successful advocacy campaigns, fostering political will, and promoting good maternal health practices. SMEs with grassroots advocacy prowess, especially those embedded within cultural, social, and political networks, are well-suited to contribute effectively to the project's goals. The procurement process, facilitated by the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, invites entities capable of driving impactful change within maternal health frameworks.

## Notice

The TRANSFORM project (Tranexamic acid Access for all Mothers with Bleeding after Childbirth) aims to reduce maternal deaths from postpartum haemorrhage (PPH) by generating evidence and creating an enabling environment. The I'M WOMAN trial is addressing two priority research questions highlighted in the 2023 WHO PPH roadmap (output 1). Alongside the trial, the project will raise awareness about PPH and tranexamic acid through locally led community engagement and advocacy activities (output 2). Advocacy and community engagement play a vital role in ensuring the initiative's success by raising awareness, mobilizing community stakeholders and political will, and promoting good maternal health practices. This component of the project has faced significant delays which risk the initiative's overall success. Given the alarmingly high maternal mortality rates in Nigeria, our collaboration with Nigerian partners on output 1, and limited funding for output 2, community engagement activities will target Nigeria. A potential partner, a women's advocacy organization based in Lagos, Nigeria, the Women Advocates Research & Documentation Centre (WARD-C), has been identified to lead this work. This NGO has extensive experience in grassroots community mobilization, public health advocacy, and maternal health, and is deeply embedded within the relevant networks needed for this project. Their expertise and established relationships make them uniquely positioned to execute the required work within the constrained timeline.

### Procurement Information

The supplier has a demonstrated history of success in grassroots advocacy, particularly within the domains of maternal health and women's rights. Their expertise in public health, maternal health, and advocacy is crucial for effectively implementing this project. Additionally, they have a strong presence in the target communities, and their deep knowledge of local cultural, social, and political dynamics is an indispensable asset for a project of this nature
