Opportunity Summary:
The Strategic Trade Control Legislation Development and Licensing Assistance - Chile opportunity is a U.S. Department of State funding announcement issued by the Office of Export Control Cooperation (ISN/ECC) to support work with the Government of Chile on strengthening its national strategic trade controls. The core aim is to help Chile improve and modernize its strategic trade control framework so it aligns with widely accepted international standards in the nonproliferation and export control space. This includes assistance focused on updating or refining strategic trade control laws, developing or improving implementing regulations, strengthening the associated national control list, and enhancing licensing procedures used to review and authorize controlled exports and related transactions.
The award is structured as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning the Department of State expects to remain actively involved in the project alongside the selected recipient rather than simply providing a hands-off grant. The funding activity is categorized under nonproliferation, and the CFDA program is 19.901 (Export Control and Related Border Security). The announcement anticipates making a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of up to USD 350,000. The ceiling is USD 350,000 and the minimum is listed as USD 1, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute their own funds as a condition of eligibility.
Eligibility is limited to U.S.-based entities that can credibly deliver technical and policy assistance in export controls and strategic trade regulation. Specifically, eligible applicants include U.S. nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education under that particular category), U.S. public or private institutions of higher education, and public international organizations (PIOs). In practical terms, the program is looking for organizations with demonstrated expertise in export control legislation and regulation, control list development, licensing system design and implementation, and the ability to work collaboratively with a foreign government to produce concrete legal and procedural improvements.
The timeline in the source data shows it was posted on August 18, 2011, created on September 1, 2011, and had an original closing date of September 5, 2011, later extended to a current closing date of September 9, 2011.
