Opportunity Summary:
USAID/Morocco issued a Request for Information (RFI) titled "International Reading for Success for non formal education" (Funding Opportunity Number 608-15-002) to gather input from international companies and organizations. The purpose is not to award a grant immediately, but to collect information that will help USAID understand the implementation capacity that exists for an ongoing or planned local project, specifically by assessing how capable potential implementers are and what experience and resources they can bring. The RFI is being used to inform USAID's project implementation capacity analysis in Morocco, with a particular interest in organizations that have hands-on experience running NGO-led non-formal education programs, especially those connected to reading and learning outcomes.
The opportunity is listed under the Education funding activity category, and while it references a cooperative agreement as the intended funding instrument type and indicates an expectation of one award, the announcement itself is explicitly an RFI, meaning it is primarily a market research and planning step. USAID is essentially inviting qualified international entities to answer a set of questions contained in an attached RFI document, submit responses in English, and send them electronically to USAID/Morocco. The information collected would typically help USAID shape future program design, determine feasible implementation approaches, identify potential partners, and understand what technical and operational capacity is available in the field for non-formal education interventions.
Eligibility is directed at international firms and organizations, and the listing notes "Others" with additional clarification that international entities are the intended respondents. There is no cost-sharing or matching requirement associated with responding to the RFI. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 98.001, which corresponds to USAID foreign assistance for overseas programs.
Key dates show that the RFI was posted and created on December 12, 2014, with an original and current closing date of December 22, 2014, and it was archived on January 21, 2015. Interested respondents who needed help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact Salya Yacoubi at USAID in Rabat, Morocco, using the provided phone number (+212 53763 7200) or email (syacoubi@usaid.gov).
