Opportunity Summary:
SGA ILAB NOI 9 is a U.S. Department of Labor notice signaling an intended award, not an open call for proposals. It is issued as a Notice of Intent (NOI), meaning it is not requesting competitive grant applications and it is not an application-based funding opportunity. The announcement states that any responses submitted in reaction to the NOI would only be used to help the Department decide whether it should pursue a competitive procurement in the future; those responses would not be evaluated for an award under this notice.
The Department of Labor, through its Office of Procurement Services, indicates it plans to fund a single Cooperative Agreement with the International Labor Organization (ILO). The purpose is to strengthen efforts to combat forced labor in Brazil, including forced child labor, while also documenting, disseminating, and sharing effective practices from Brazil and extending that learning to Peru. The activity area is listed under Employment, Labor and Training, and the intent is to support a comprehensive package of capacity building, victim assistance linkages, and cross-country collaboration.
The project’s objectives are laid out in five main components. First, it aims to expand knowledge about forced labor and strengthen the ability of selected Brazilian states and municipalities to put into practice Brazil’s Second National Plan to Combat Forced Labor, along with related state-level plans. Second, it seeks to build the capacity of the National Pact Against Forced Labor so it can develop and execute sustainable strategies that broaden its reach into additional states and economic sectors where forced labor is most prevalent. Third, it focuses on connecting victims of forced labor and their households to existing social protection and livelihood programs, emphasizing that enforcement actions alone are not enough if survivors are left without services and economic alternatives. Fourth, it plans to develop innovative livelihood interventions for people who have experienced forced labor and for populations at risk of entering it, including children vulnerable to or engaged in child labor, with an emphasis on public-private partnerships as a vehicle for scaling and sustainability. Fifth, it supports a trilateral partnership among the United States, Brazil, and Peru, intended to replicate in Peru selected elements of Brazil’s broader approach to combating forced labor.
From an administrative and funding standpoint, the announcement lists an expected single award with an estimated total funding amount of $5,365,865, which also serves as the stated award ceiling. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which typically implies substantial involvement by the funding agency in steering, collaboration, or oversight compared to a standard grant. The opportunity is categorized as “Other,” with a placeholder CFDA listing of 00.000 (Not Elsewhere Classified), underscoring that this posting functions more as a procurement/award notice than a standard assistance competition.
Eligibility is effectively limited by design because the Department states it intends to make a sole-source award to the ILO, specifically referencing the ILO office at 1166 Avenue of the Americas, 17th Floor, New York, NY 10038-2708. As a result, other organizations are not being invited to apply through a competitive process under this notice. Key dates included in the record show it was posted and created on November 8, 2012, with an original and current closing date of November 23, 2012, and an archive date of December 23, 2012, reflecting that it is an older, archived notice rather than an active competition.
For access issues or questions about the full announcement, the notice provides contacts within the Department of Labor: Brenda J. White (white.brenda.j@dol.gov) as the primary point of contact and James Kinslow (kinslow.james@dol.gov) as an alternate, with a listed Grants Officer phone number of 202-693-4570. An additional information link is referenced as a link to the ILAB website, indicating where supporting materials or context may have been hosted at the time.
