About this opportunity
The Department of State is soliciting applications for a cooperative agreement to fund data analytics and artificial intelligence capabilities to counter global diversion of export-controlled commodities, with applications due August 21, 2026. The program targets "Other" applicant types, a restrictive eligibility category that excludes standard categories such as for-profit entities, nonprofit organizations, and institutions of higher education unless they fall within the Department's definition of "Other."
The cooperative agreement will fund three integrated components: analysis of trade data with creation of exemplary visualizations and dashboards, plus training for export control authorities on data-driven implementation; design, development, and deployment of a smartphone-accessible application enabling frontline officers to detect and identify export-controlled commodities; and training for recipients to engage regulated industry effectively and proactively based on identified proliferation trends.
Applicants must address all three components or the specified subset outlined in the detailed notice. Organizations must demonstrate capability in trade data analysis, software development, or export control training as applicable to their proposed work. The funding mechanism establishes a collaborative partnership between the Department of State and selected recipients, with the Department retaining substantial involvement in program execution and decision-making.
The NOFO package, identified as DFOP0018157, contains Request for Application guidelines, required federal forms, evaluation criteria, budget instructions, and technical specifications. Prospective applicants should review all included documentation to prepare competitive proposals aligned with the Department's export control modernization objectives.
Synopsis
This effort seeks to address multiple facets of export control challenges. The first component will analyze trade data, create exemplary visualizations (e.g., dashboards), and train export control authorities to use data analysis for export control implementation. The second component will design, develop, and deploy a smartphone-accessible application for frontline officers to detect and identify export-controlled commodities. The third component will train recipients to effectively, responsively, and proactively engage regulated industry based on identified proliferation trends.
