Technical Bid Opening 14th September 2026 Financial Bid Opening 15th September 2026 Finalization of Contract TBD (to be intimated to the awardee only) Purpose This Scope of Work (SOW) sets out the deliverables, activities, and timeline for the design and development of Social and Behaviour Change Communication (SBCC) materials — interactive games, posters, and a video — to support the Perinatal Mental Health (PNMH) pilot being implemented by The American India Foundation Trust. This document is extracted from the full Request for Proposal (RFP) for use by the procurement team and prospective vendors as a standalone reference for contracting purposes.

Background

Perinatal mental health remains an under-recognized public health concern. Front-line workers (FLWs) — including ASHAs, ANMs, Anganwadi workers, and community mobilisers — are often the first point of contact with pregnant and postpartum women but frequently lack simple, engaging tools to initiate conversations on this sensitive subject. This assignment will develop SBCC materials that FLWs can use to build awareness, reduce stigma, and encourage help-seeking related to perinatal mental health within the community.

Objective

To design, develop, and deliver a set of contextually appropriate, field-ready SBCC materials that support the PNMH pilot's community awareness goals. Target Audience

• Primary: Pregnant and postpartum women (perinatal period) in the pilot community.
• Secondary/User of materials: Front-line workers (ASHAs, ANMs, Anganwadi workers, community mobilisers) who will facilitate use of the games, display posters, and screen the video.
• Tertiary: Family members and the wider community, through poster display and video screenings.
