Opportunity Information: Apply for RFI 2024 003
The Local Partner and Sub-Partner Outreach opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: RFI 2024 003) is a USAID Mexico initiative issued out of Mexico City that is focused on mapping and better understanding the landscape of organizations operating across Mexico. Rather than centering on a single program sector or a specific on-the-ground intervention, the core purpose is outreach and information-gathering so USAID can strengthen how it designs and implements development work in the country. USAID is looking to learn which organizations are active in different regions, what topic areas they work in, and what their operational and technical capacities look like, with particular attention to local partners and sub-partners. The notice indicates this is a local area set-aside, signaling that the outreach is intended to prioritize local organizations and locally rooted entities.
This announcement is categorized broadly as an "Other" type of opportunity and uses an "Other" funding instrument type and activity category, which typically suggests it may not fit neatly into standard grant or contract formats and may be structured primarily as a market research-style request rather than a conventional competition for a program award. The number in the listing (RFI) commonly refers to a Request for Information, meaning the government may be collecting inputs to shape future programming, partnership approaches, or future solicitations. The listing includes an award ceiling of $5,000,000, although the entry does not specify the number of expected awards, and the overall framing emphasizes gaining understanding of organizations rather than announcing a defined set of deliverables associated with a traditional multi-year implementation award.
The eligible applicant field is listed simply as "Others," which implies a wide range of organizations could potentially respond or be relevant, depending on the instructions in the full document. In practice for an outreach and landscape-understanding effort, this could include local civil society organizations, community-based organizations, foundations, academic and research institutions, networks and coalitions, private sector or social enterprise actors, and other entities that may serve as direct partners or sub-partners in USAID-funded activities. The essential point is that USAID Mexico wants visibility into who is doing what, where they work, and how prepared they are to partner on development efforts, which can include thematic expertise, compliance readiness, financial management, monitoring and evaluation capacity, safeguarding policies, and the ability to operate in specific geographic or community contexts.
The opportunity was created on January 23, 2024, with an original closing date of March 23, 2024. The synopsis also notes that a courtesy Spanish translation is provided in an attachment, but that the English version is controlling if there is any discrepancy between the two. That is important for applicants because submission requirements, definitions, and eligibility details ultimately depend on the English language version, even if organizations rely on the Spanish translation for accessibility.
In short, this is an outreach-oriented USAID Mexico notice aimed at improving USAID's understanding of Mexico's local organizational ecosystem, including potential local partners and sub-partners, their thematic focus areas, and their capacities, with the broader goal of informing and improving USAID's development approach in-country.Apply for RFI 2024 003
