Opportunity Information: Apply for 72065623RFI00001
The Stability Through Economic Progress, Unity and Peacebuilding (STEP UP) notice is a USAID Mozambique (USAID-Maputo) Request for Information (RFI) tied to early planning for a possible future activity under the US Government Strategy to Prevent Conflict and Promote Stability (SPCPS). In practical terms, USAID is signaling that it is exploring the design of a program concept focused on stability, economic progress, unity, and peacebuilding, and it wants to hear from the public and potential partners before finalizing what the eventual program might look like.
This announcement is not a grant competition, not a solicitation, and not a request for applications. It is strictly a market research and design-support step, meaning USAID is collecting ideas, perspectives, and feedback to shape the activity’s approach and requirements. The agency is specifically asking for information about organizational interest in the anticipated work and for comments on USAID’s questions that will guide the design process. Because it is an information-gathering tool rather than a funding opportunity, there is no award amount listed (award ceiling is shown as 0), and there are no expected awards identified at this stage.
The RFI is open to input from any interested organizations, including both US and non-US entities, and eligibility is described as unrestricted. That broad openness is typical for RFIs, since the goal is to gather diverse viewpoints and learn what approaches, capabilities, and on-the-ground realities should inform the design of a future program. At the same time, the notice clearly warns organizations not to submit proposals, resumes, or promotional packets; those materials will be discarded because they do not serve the purpose of an RFI and can create confusion about competitive procurement rules.
Key identifying details include the funding opportunity title (Stability Through Economic Progress, Unity and Peacebuilding (STEP UP)), the opportunity number (72065623RFI00001), the issuing agency (USAID-Maputo, Mozambique), and the CFDA/assistance listing reference (98.001). The posting date is March 28, 2023, and the original closing date for responses/comments is April 21, 2023, which sets the window during which USAID intended to receive feedback for planning purposes.
Overall, STEP UP as described here should be read as an early signal and listening exercise: USAID is exploring a stability and peacebuilding-related activity aligned with SPCPS in Mozambique, and it is seeking structured input from stakeholders to improve the eventual design. Organizations interested in future involvement would typically use this kind of RFI to share relevant technical insights, contextual knowledge, implementation considerations, and constructive suggestions that could influence the scope and structure of a later, formal solicitation.Apply for 72065623RFI00001
