Opportunity Summary:

The APS Support for International Family Planning Organizations (SIFPO) is a USAID discretionary funding opportunity focused on health, specifically aimed at supporting international family planning organizations working in USAID priority countries. The opportunity is issued under Funding Opportunity Number M OAA GH POP 10 001 and is structured to fund activities through either cooperative agreements or grants. USAID anticipated making up to three awards under this announcement, with an estimated total funding level of $120,000,000. Individual awards could be as large as $40,000,000, and applicants should plan for a cost-sharing or matching requirement, since matching is explicitly required under the opportunity.

This particular notice is an amendment to the original APS rather than a brand-new program launch. The amendment has two main purposes: first, to provide official answers to questions that USAID received from prospective applicants in response to the SIFPO APS; and second, to extend the submission deadline for Round 1. Under the amendment, Round 1 concept papers must be submitted by 5:00 pm Eastern Standard Time on December 7, 2009. In other words, the immediate action item for applicants in Round 1 is the concept paper deadline, which was extended to give applicants additional time.

Although the APS is described as having an open-ended closing date overall, USAID notes that it reserves the right to close the APS if it becomes irrelevant or if funding is no longer available. This means the solicitation may remain open as a mechanism for future rounds or submissions, but USAID can end it at its discretion. The posted date for the opportunity is November 6, 2009, with a creation date of November 25, 2009, reflecting the administrative timeline for the listing and the amendment activity.

Eligibility is limited to U.S. and non-U.S. organizations that are registered and working in USAID priority countries, with additional details referenced in the announcement under the eligibility clarification field. This framing suggests USAID is seeking capable organizations with existing presence, registration status, and operational experience in the specific countries USAID prioritizes for family planning and reproductive health programming.

For applicants who cannot access the full announcement electronically or who need assistance with the official documentation, the listed point of contact is Alisa Dunn, Contract Specialist, reachable by phone at 202-712-0908 (an email address is referenced but not included in the provided text).
