Opportunity Summary:
Notice of Intent (NOI) 05 Georgia is an advance notice from the U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL), Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB), indicating that the Department expects to release a future funding solicitation for a technical assistance project focused on Georgia. The central purpose of the anticipated project is to strengthen worker organizations so they can more effectively represent workers interests and protect workers rights. In practical terms, this means the future award is expected to support capacity-building efforts for labor organizations in Georgia, such as improving organizational effectiveness, representation, and advocacy on behalf of workers.
This announcement is explicitly not a request for applications and does not include the full Solicitation for Cooperative Agreement Applications (SCA), program requirements, evaluation criteria, or attachments. It is only a notice that USDOL intends to publish an SCA later, subject to the availability of funds. The Office of Procurement Services anticipated publishing the SCA on or about June 23, 2014, though the date was noted as subject to change. Interested parties were directed to monitor Grants.gov because the SCA would be made available to the public only through that platform, with no email or paper copies provided.
The opportunity is categorized as a discretionary program and is expected to use a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement generally signals substantial Federal involvement during the project period compared to a standard grant, often through collaboration, technical direction, or ongoing coordination. The activity area is Employment, Labor and Training, and the listing is associated with CFDA 17.401, International Labor Programs. The notice lists no cost sharing or matching requirement.
Several fields in the notice reflect that it is only an intent announcement rather than an active competition. For example, the expected number of awards is shown as 0, and the estimated total funding, award ceiling, award floor, and similar award dollar figures are shown as 0. These placeholders commonly appear in NOIs when funding amounts and award structures are not yet finalized or are meant to be published in the later SCA.
Eligibility is broad and is aimed at organizations capable of successfully building the capacity of local and national labor organizations in Georgia. Eligible applicants may include commercial entities, international organizations, educational institutions, and nonprofit organizations, including faith-based, community-based, and public international organizations. The notice also emphasizes that not having prior experience with USDOL cooperative agreements, grants, or contracts does not disqualify an organization, which signals an openness to new implementers as long as they can credibly carry out the capacity-building mission.
For prospective applicants, the notice points to USDOL ILAB grant resources for general guidance and examples of prior cooperative agreement applications, specifically through the ILAB grants page and the SGA guidelines page. Anyone having trouble accessing the full announcement electronically was provided a point of contact: Lisa Butler, Grants Specialist, at (202) 693-7171 and butler.lisa.m@dol.gov. The notice was posted May 9, 2014, with a listed closing date of June 23, 2014 and an archive date of July 23, 2014, reflecting the timeframe during which the intent notice and the anticipated solicitation timeline were being communicated.
