Opportunity Summary:
The grant opportunity titled "Strategic Trade Control Legislation Development - Legal Regulatory Assistance - Saudi Arabia" was a U.S. Department of State program administered through the Bureau of International Security and Nonproliferation, focused on export control and nonproliferation capacity-building. The purpose was to support the Export Control and Related Border Security (EXBS) mission by providing specialized legal and regulatory assistance to the Government of Saudi Arabia. In practical terms, the project aimed to help Saudi authorities draft comprehensive strategic trade control legislation and develop the implementing regulations needed to align Saudi Arabia's trade control system with widely accepted international standards and to ensure consistency with relevant nonproliferation regimes.
This was offered as a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement, meaning the U.S. government anticipated an active partnership with the award recipient rather than a hands-off grant. The funding activity category was listed under nonproliferation, and the opportunity was tied to CFDA number 19.901 (Export Control and Related Border Security). The program anticipated making a single award, with an estimated total funding level of $180,000. The award ceiling was also $180,000, with no stated minimum award amount (award floor of $0). There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not required to contribute their own funds to qualify.
Eligible applicants included U.S.-based higher education institutions (both public/state-controlled and private) as well as nonprofit organizations holding 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education in that category. The opportunity was posted on July 27, 2012 (created July 25, 2012) and had an original and final closing date of August 15, 2012, after which it was archived on September 14, 2012. For applicants who had trouble accessing the official announcement through Grants.gov, the listed point of contact was the Grants.gov Contact Center, reachable by phone at 1-800-518-4726 or by email at support@grants.gov, with 24/7 availability except federal holidays.
Overall, this opportunity was designed to fund a targeted, technical assistance effort helping Saudi Arabia build a stronger legal and regulatory foundation for strategic trade controls, with the broader goal of preventing illicit transfers of sensitive goods, technologies, and materials associated with proliferation concerns, while bringing national legislation and regulations into closer alignment with established global nonproliferation expectations.
