Opportunity Information: Apply for RFI 613 22 000002
Zero Tolerance Towards Corruption (RFI 613 22 000002) is a USAID/Zimbabwe market research request aimed at gathering input from industry, civil society, and other stakeholders on what a future anti-corruption activity in Zimbabwe should focus on and how it should be designed. The notice is specifically a Request for Information (RFI), meaning USAID is seeking ideas, perspectives, and practical suggestions rather than funding applications. The intent is to use the feedback to shape planning decisions and strengthen the design of any later USAID programming so that it is more realistic, targeted, and likely to achieve results in the anti-corruption space.
This opportunity is not a Request for Proposals (RFP) and not a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NFO). In plain terms, USAID is not asking for full project proposals, budgets, or formal applications, and it is not promising that a future solicitation will be released. Even if a future procurement or assistance opportunity comes out later, USAID is not obligated to use any particular suggestion it receives through this RFI. The RFI is issued under federal acquisition planning rules (FAR Part 10 and FAR 15.201(e)), which are commonly used when the U.S. Government is gathering information from the market before deciding whether, when, and how to compete a future activity.
The listing notes that the anticipated mechanism for any eventual activity could be a cooperative agreement, and the opportunity is categorized as discretionary. However, because this is only an information-gathering step, there is no award amount set (the award ceiling is listed as 0) and the entry showing an expected number of awards does not represent an actual commitment to make an award. The eligible applicants field is effectively open or unrestricted, meaning any type of entity could submit information in response, subject to any clarifications in the full notice.
USAID sets clear boundaries on what it will and will not do with submissions. It will not pay for the preparation or submission of responses, and it will not acknowledge or consider funding proposals sent in response to the RFI. Submitted information becomes USAID property, will not be returned, and will not be released publicly. USAID also cautions respondents not to submit proprietary information. Responses had to be received by the stated deadline (original closing date: February 25, 2022). The issuing office is USAID Zimbabwe (USAID-Harare), and the CFDA/assistance listing associated with the notice is 98.001.
Overall, the key takeaway is that this is a pre-solicitation consultation designed to collect practical input on anti-corruption programming needs and design options in Zimbabwe. Organizations interested in influencing future USAID anti-corruption work could use an RFI like this to share lessons learned, propose priority intervention areas, highlight risks and constraints, suggest effective partnerships or implementation approaches, and identify what would make an activity feasible and impactful, without treating it as an open call for funding.Apply for RFI 613 22 000002
