Opportunity Information: Apply for NOI ILAB 19 01
The grant opportunity titled "Engaging Workers and Civil Society to Strengthen Labor Law Enforcement" is not an open funding competition. It is issued as a Notice of Intent (NOI), which means the Department of Labor is signaling what it plans to do, but it is not publishing an application announcement and it is not accepting proposals from the public. In practical terms, there is no deadline to apply because there is no application process connected to this notice.
The U.S. Department of Labor (USDOL), through its Bureau of International Labor Affairs (ILAB), indicates that it intends, if funding is available, to add funding to an already-existing cooperative agreement with the American Center for International Labor Solidarity. The purpose of providing this additional funding is to extend the implementation period of the current program and increase its capacity, rather than start a new, competed project. The notice anticipates a single award, with an award ceiling listed at up to $4,000,000.
This planned action is described as a non-competitive modification or extension of an existing agreement, justified under specific internal authority provisions (DLMS 2-836 G.2 and G.3). The core rationale is that the work being funded is considered essential to satisfactorily complete an activity that DOL is already supporting, and that running a new competition could create major downsides. The notice lists the types of harms and inefficiencies that competition could cause in this context, including potential harm to the public good, costs that exceed any possible government savings, disruption to ongoing services, duplication of effort at extra cost, and delays that would slow completion of the program.
In addition to the continuity argument, the notice also cites a sole-source style justification: that the needed services are available from only one responsible source and that no substitute would adequately meet the need, or that the current recipient has unique qualifications to carry out the activity. In other words, ILAB is stating that the current partner is uniquely positioned to continue the project effectively, and that switching implementers or reopening the work to competition would not be practical or beneficial for the government or the program.
From a classification standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding, using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. Cooperative agreements typically involve a higher level of federal involvement compared to a standard grant, implying that ILAB may continue to play an active role in guiding or collaborating on the project as it proceeds. The activity category is listed as "Other," and the CFDA number provided is 17.401, which corresponds to ILAB-related assistance listings.
Eligibility information in the record is essentially moot for outside organizations because the notice does not solicit applications. While the eligible applicants field is broadly labeled as "Others," the text makes clear that the intended recipient is the American Center for International Labor Solidarity and that the funding would be issued without full and open competition to extend an existing agreement. The key takeaway is that this is a planned continuation and expansion of an ongoing ILAB-funded effort focused on strengthening labor law enforcement by engaging workers and civil society, rather than a new, competed grant opportunity that external applicants can pursue.Apply for NOI ILAB 19 01
