Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Improving The Dominican Republic Capacity to Plan and Conduct Monitoring and Evaluation Activities" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH11 11102) was issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) as a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement mechanism. Its core purpose was to strengthen the Dominican Republic's ability to plan, manage, and carry out monitoring and evaluation (M and E) work, which is a critical function for tracking public health programs, measuring results, improving performance, and supporting evidence-based decision-making. The opportunity falls under the health funding activity category and is tied to CFDA 93.067, Global AIDS, signaling that the overall context is aligned with global HIV/AIDS programming and related public health efforts where strong M and E systems are essential for accountability and impact.
This particular notice is unusual compared with many open competitions because it explicitly states it is not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public notice of CDC's intent to fund the project activities described in the full announcement without full and open competition. In practical terms, that typically means CDC had already identified a partner or a specific implementation approach and was providing transparency about its intention to make an award, rather than inviting multiple applicants to compete. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which suggests that the detailed eligibility criteria and any intended recipient information were contained in the full announcement rather than in the brief summary record.
In terms of funding scale and structure, CDC anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding amount of $1,200,000. The award ceiling was $300,000 and the award floor was $200,000, which implies annual budget limits or an expected range for a budget period, depending on how the cooperative agreement was structured across project years. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient would not be required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. Key dates show it was posted and created on February 1, 2011, with an original and current closing date of April 1, 2011, and an archive date of May 1, 2011, indicating the opportunity is long closed and retained for recordkeeping.
Because the instrument type is a cooperative agreement, CDC would typically expect substantial involvement in the project, such as collaborating on technical direction, approving work plans, participating in monitoring, and helping guide implementation decisions. While the short description does not list specific activities, capacity-building for M and E in a country context commonly includes developing or strengthening national and program-level M and E plans, improving indicators and reporting frameworks, training staff in data collection and analysis, establishing or improving data quality assurance processes, strengthening routine reporting systems, and increasing the use of data for program management and strategic planning. In the Global AIDS context, these activities often support better tracking of prevention, testing, treatment, and care outcomes, and help ensure program resources are used effectively.
For access and administrative support, the listing directs readers to the "Full Announcement" (not provided as an active link in the record) and notes that anyone having difficulty accessing the full announcement electronically could contact the CDC Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), Technical Information Management Section (TIMS), at 770-488-2700. Overall, the opportunity was a CDC-led, non-competitively awarded cooperative agreement aimed at building durable M and E capacity in the Dominican Republic to support stronger public health program oversight and results measurement, particularly in areas aligned with global HIV/AIDS efforts.
