About this opportunity
The Food and Drug Administration is soliciting applications for cooperative agreements to advance national animal food safety systems through inter-agency collaboration and state regulatory program improvement, with this limited-competition opportunity restricted to national organizations and associations representing state animal food regulatory programs as a primary purpose and primarily consisting of membership from state animal feed regulatory program directors and staff, or government agencies including AFRPS enrollees, that collaborate with one or more institutions of higher education as defined in 21 USC 399(b). The opportunity funds activities to build inter-agency collaboration, improve states' regulatory and surveillance protection programs, and promote the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards. No application deadline is specified in the source. Award information, period of performance, place of performance, cost-share requirements, and specific evaluation criteria are not identified in the source. The opportunity operates under CFDA 93.103, Food and Drug Administration Research, which has obligated $4.17 billion across 3,008 grants historically, with cooperative agreements comprising 58 percent of awards. Recent cooperative agreements under this CFDA have ranged from $250 thousand to $2.4 million, though those figures reflect laboratory testing initiatives rather than this specific animal feed safety solicitation and should not be assumed to bound this award.
Forecast synopsis
The purpose is to provide a funding opportunity for national feed associations to advance and promote a national animal food safety system by building inter-agency collaboration, improving states' regulatory and surveillance protection programs, and promoting the Animal Feed Regulatory Program Standards (AFRPS). Effective leveraging of animal food safety resources and harmonization requires collaboration with relevant initiatives, including those of federal partners, national initiatives and associations, and state partners.
Eligibility
This limited competition opportunity is only available to the following animal food safety training entities that collaborate with one or more institutes of higher education: National organizations and associations representing state animal food regulatory programs as a primary purpose and primarily consisting of membership from state animal feed regulatory program directors and staff, or government agencies including, but not limited to, AFRPS enrollees, and who collaborate with one or more institutions of higher education as defined in 21 USC 399(b).
