Opportunity Summary:
The Basic Strategic Trade Controls Training - Yemen opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number S-PMECO-11-RFA-08) is a U.S. Department of State funding solicitation issued by the Office of Export Control Cooperation (ISN/ECC). It seeks proposals to deliver foundational training to the Government of Yemen on strategic trade controls, which generally refers to the legal, regulatory, and operational tools governments use to prevent the illicit transfer of sensitive goods, software, and technologies that could contribute to weapons of mass destruction programs or other proliferation-related activities. The program sits within the nonproliferation space and is associated with CFDA 19.901, Export Control and Related Border Security, signaling that the training is meant to strengthen national systems that regulate exports, transshipment, brokering, and related border and enforcement functions.
Funding is offered as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning the Department of State expects to have substantial involvement during implementation (for example, coordination on agendas, speakers, deliverables, or alignment with U.S. government objectives). ISN/ECC anticipates making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of about $140,000. The award ceiling is $140,000 and the minimum (award floor) is listed as $1. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds to be eligible, although proposals typically still benefit from showing cost effectiveness and realistic budgeting.
Eligibility is limited to U.S.-based nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status, U.S. educational institutions (public/state-controlled and private institutions of higher education), and public international organizations (PIOs). The solicitation was posted and created on September 2, 2011, with an application deadline of September 23, 2011, and an archive date of October 23, 2011. Applicants are directed to consult the full Request for Applications (RFA) for the detailed scope of work, expected training topics and format, participant profile, implementation approach, deliverables, and complete submission instructions, since the public notice is a high-level summary rather than a full statement of requirements.
