Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Providing Information System Support for Training and Implementation of National HIV Monitoring Systems in the United Republic of Tanzania under the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief," is a CDC cooperative agreement designed to strengthen Tanzania's national HIV monitoring capacity through information system support, training, and implementation assistance. The work is framed under the Presidents Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) and is carried out under the leadership of the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator. In practical terms, the CDC is looking to support efforts that help a host country build and run reliable national HIV monitoring systems that align with the country's own strategic plans and partnership frameworks, rather than creating stand-alone or parallel reporting structures.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement during implementation, such as collaborating on technical direction, monitoring progress, and helping ensure activities align with PEPFAR priorities and Tanzania's national HIV strategy. The funding activity category is Health, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 93.067 (Global AIDS). The announcement anticipates a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), signaling that CDC likely intended to fund one primary implementing partner to lead and coordinate the scope of work.
Financially, the opportunity lists an estimated total funding amount of $3,600,000. The award ceiling is stated as $320,000, with an award floor of $0. The presence of a total estimated funding figure alongside an annual or per-budget-period ceiling can indicate multi-year planning or staged funding across budget periods, though the notice as provided does not spell out the project period structure. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of eligibility.
The timeline shows that the opportunity was posted on January 30, 2013, with a creation date of April 8, 2013. The original closing date was April 3, 2013, and it was later extended to a current closing date of April 23, 2013. The archive date is May 3, 2013, which usually indicates when the listing would be removed from active view after the competition window ended.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of domestic and non-domestic entities. Eligible applicants include nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories), for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), small/minority/women-owned businesses, universities and colleges, research institutions, hospitals, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations. It also includes federally or state-recognized American Indian/Alaska Native tribal governments and related tribal entities (such as tribal epidemiology centers and Alaska Native health corporations), as well as state and local governments and their bona fide agents. The listing also explicitly allows non-U.S. entities to apply, which is relevant given that the activities are centered on Tanzania. For applicants applying as a bona fide agent of a state or local government, the announcement specifies that a legal, binding agreement documenting that status must be included as an attachment in the application package submitted through Grants.gov.
The overarching purpose described is to provide information system support for training and implementation of national HIV monitoring systems in Tanzania. While the excerpted description is high level, the core emphasis is clear: CDC, as part of HHS and PEPFAR, partners with host countries and other stakeholders to assess country needs and design tailored assistance that fits within national plans. That generally implies strengthening the systems used to collect, manage, analyze, and report HIV program and surveillance data, and building local capacity through training so the systems can be sustained and used effectively for decision-making. Because the title explicitly references "national HIV monitoring systems," the focus is likely on improving data quality, standardization, and timely reporting across the national program, which can support performance monitoring and strategic planning.

For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the contact listed is CDC Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management, reachable by phone at (770) 488-2700 or by email at pgotim@cdc.gov.
