Opportunity Summary:
The Internal Compliance Program for Serbia grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number ISN ISNECC 16 013) was a discretionary U.S. Department of State funding announcement issued by the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation under CFDA 19.901. Released on June 23, 2016, with an original application deadline of July 25, 2016, it offered support through a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipient would be expected to work closely with the U.S. government during implementation rather than operating entirely independently.
The core purpose of the award was to help the Government of Serbia develop a national internal compliance program that Serbia could promulgate to domestic enterprises involved in strategic trade activities. In practice, an internal compliance program is typically a structured set of policies, procedures, training, and internal controls that companies use to ensure they comply with laws and regulations related to controlled goods and technologies, export controls, brokering, transit and transshipment rules, and other strategic trade requirements. The intent is to strengthen national and corporate-level compliance culture so that companies handling sensitive or dual-use items understand their obligations, identify red flags, screen parties and transactions, maintain proper records, and prevent unauthorized transfers that could contribute to proliferation or other security risks.
Funding under the opportunity was capped at an award ceiling of $175,000, and the announcement anticipated up to 10 awards, suggesting multiple projects could be supported, potentially across different countries or complementary activities, even though this specific project focus was Serbia. Eligible applicants included U.S.-based nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education) as well as other applicants as further allowed by the opportunity guidance. Overall, the opportunity aimed to build Serbian capacity by creating a standardized, national-level compliance framework that the Serbian government could distribute and promote to businesses engaged in strategically sensitive trade, improving consistency and effectiveness of compliance practices across the domestic private sector.
