Opportunity Summary:
The Parliamentary Strengthening Program is a USAID/Haiti funding opportunity aimed at improving the effectiveness and capacity of Haiti's البرلمان (Parliament) through a single, large-scale implementation award. USAID is seeking qualified organizations to design and carry out a comprehensive, five-year program focused on strengthening parliamentary functions and institutional performance in Haiti. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning USAID would expect to have a more hands-on role than in a standard grant, with ongoing coordination and substantial involvement in shaping or monitoring implementation as the program moves forward.
This opportunity was issued by the U.S. Agency for International Development Mission in Haiti, based in Port-au-Prince, under Funding Opportunity Number USAID HAITI 521 11 027, and it falls within the funding activity category of Law, Justice, and Legal Services. It is funded under CFDA 98.001 (USAID Foreign Assistance for Programs Overseas). The total funding level is set as a firm amount: the award ceiling is 15,000,000 and the award floor is also 15,000,000, indicating USAID anticipated making one award for the full amount rather than multiple awards or a range of possible budgets. No cost sharing or matching funds are required, so applicants were not expected to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility.
In terms of who could apply, eligibility was broad and included U.S.-based and potentially international implementing organizations across several categories: nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) entities and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status), private and public/state-controlled institutions of higher education, and for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other for-profits). This mix suggests USAID was open to a range of implementers, from universities and research institutions to development contractors and nonprofit technical assistance providers, as long as they could credibly design and implement a national-level parliamentary support program in Haiti.
The timeline for the solicitation was relatively short. The opportunity was posted on June 3, 2011, with an original and current closing date of July 15, 2011. The listing shows a creation date of July 6, 2011 and an archive date of September 30, 2011, meaning the announcement is now historical/archived. For applicants at the time, USAID provided a point of contact for access issues or questions about the full announcement: Eleanore Armand Xavier, an Acquisition and Assistance Specialist at USAID Haiti, reachable by phone at 509 2 229 8404.
