Opportunity Information: Apply for RFI 306 19 OHN 002
The National Health Technical Assistance Program (NHTAP) notice is not a live grant competition or a request for proposals. It is a Request for Information (RFI) released by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Mission to Afghanistan to gather feedback from organizations about an attached concept paper for a future health technical assistance program in Afghanistan. USAID is using this RFI to improve its understanding of what the Government might need and what capabilities exist across potential implementers in the public and private sectors. In other words, USAID is in an information-gathering and planning stage, and it is inviting comments that could help shape a later procurement or funding opportunity.
The RFI makes several important limitations clear. Submitting a response does not create any contract or funding relationship with USAID, and responses are not treated as proposals. USAID also states that providing input will not give any organization an advantage in any later competition. Participation is voluntary, and choosing not to respond does not prevent an organization from participating in a future solicitation if USAID issues one. USAID is not required to use any of the information submitted, is not required to issue a solicitation afterward, and is not committing to procure the services described in the concept paper. USAID also notes it will not acknowledge receipt, answer questions, or provide individual feedback about submissions.
The practical instructions are straightforward and restrictive. Responses had to be submitted in English and sent electronically to KBLAIDOAANTAP@usaid.gov, with no hard-copy submissions allowed and no phone calls or meeting requests accepted. USAID emphasizes that all information submitted becomes USAID property and will not be returned. Respondents are warned not to submit proprietary information. USAID will not pay for the information provided and will not reimburse any costs associated with preparing a response, meaning all participation costs are borne by the respondent.
From the listing metadata, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary and associated with the health sector (Funding Activity Category: Health) under CFDA 98.001. The instrument type is listed as "Other," which aligns with the fact that this posting is an RFI rather than a standard grant or contract solicitation. Eligibility is described as unrestricted, indicating USAID was open to receiving input from any interested parties rather than limiting responses to a particular applicant type. The issuing agency is listed as Afghanistan USAID-Kabul, and the opportunity number is RFI 306 19 OHN 002. The posting was created on 2018-12-20, with an original closing date of 2019-01-15. Award ceiling and expected awards are not specified, which is typical for an RFI because it does not commit funding and is not making awards.
Finally, USAID directs interested parties to keep monitoring beta.SAM.gov (historically FedBizOpps at fbo.gov) and grants.gov for any follow-on announcements or solicitations connected to NHTAP. The key takeaway is that this notice is an early market-research step: USAID is collecting ideas, comments, and capability information to refine a potential National Health Technical Assistance Program in Afghanistan, but it is not yet requesting applications or making funding decisions.Apply for RFI 306 19 OHN 002
