About this file

This is an applicant organizational information template required for completion as part of a federal grant application for the 2026 U.S. Speaker Program, administered by the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi under the Department of State's Public Diplomacy Programs (CFDA 19.040). The template serves as a comprehensive organizational assessment tool that must be completed in its entirety, with responses of "Not Applicable" or "N/A" generally unacceptable without substantial explanation.

The template requires applicants to provide general organizational details including legal entity status, incorporation/registration information, and key personnel contacts for the program director and financial/business official. Organizations must complete sections addressing organizational structure (board governance, employee count, Duns and Bradstreet and SAM registration status), financial and accounting management capabilities (fiscal year end date, automated accounting systems, cost tracking by project, and general ledger posting frequency), and representations regarding tax liability and criminal conviction history. Additionally, applicants must demonstrate business management competency by documenting knowledge of 2 CFR 200 compliance, written policies and procedures across seven functional areas (personnel, procurement, cash management, subgrant monitoring, property, and travel), time and activity record maintenance by funding source, budgetary controls, separation of duties, and audit history. Organizations that have previously received grant funding must provide a five-year history of all awards or funding received, specifically noting U.S. Government sources.
