Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "PMWRA.FY13.Kabul.RFP Project 6" (Funding Opportunity Number: PM PMWRA 13 006) was a discretionary U.S. government grant competition administered under the Office of Weapons Removal and Abatement (PM/WRA). The funding activity falls under humanitarian demining, described in the announcement using the shorthand "CWD - HD," which generally refers to conventional weapons destruction and humanitarian demining work. It was listed under CFDA 19.800, "Weapons Removal and Abatement," the federal assistance listing associated with U.S. State Department programming that supports efforts to reduce threats from landmines, explosive remnants of war, and related hazards.
This opportunity was structured as a grant, not a contract, and it did not require cost sharing or matching funds from applicants. The maximum possible award amount (award ceiling) was $1,000,000, and the minimum award amount (award floor) was listed as $0, which typically signals flexibility in the eventual award size depending on the proposed approach, scope, and available funding. The opportunity category was marked as discretionary, meaning funding would be competitively awarded based on agency priorities and proposal merit rather than by entitlement or formula.
Eligibility was limited to Public International Organizations (PIOs), as indicated in the eligibility field. In practical terms, that restriction means the solicitation was not open to all nonprofits, universities, private companies, or local governments by default; it was targeted specifically to recognized international public organizations that meet the U.S. government definition for that applicant type. The listing does not provide programmatic details beyond the concise "CWD - HD" description, but the context and categorization clearly indicate the project was intended to support humanitarian mine action or related weapons-removal/abatement activities.
The opportunity was posted and created on November 2, 2012, with an original and current closing date of December 6, 2012, indicating there was no extension. The archive date was January 5, 2013, which typically reflects when the opportunity was moved out of active status on the platform after the submission window closed.
For applicant support, the public contact information provided was for the Grants.gov Contact Center rather than a program officer, emphasizing that inquiries referenced here were focused on technical access or submission issues for the electronic announcement. The contact details included the Grants.gov phone number (1-800-518-4726), 24/7 operating hours except federal holidays, and the support email address (support@grants.gov).
