U.S.-Africa Strategic Investment Program

Solicitation # DFOP0019410

The U.S.-Africa Strategic Investment Program, solicited under DFOP0019410 by the Bureau of African Affairs within the U.S. Department of State, aims to advance American national interests by fostering private sector-led economic growth in sub-Saharan Africa through targeted investments in critical minerals and commercial diplomacy. The initiative seeks proposals that de-risk and catalyze investment from U.S. and U.S.-aligned companies by promoting transparent governance, infrastructure development, regulatory reform, and resilient supply chains, particularly along key corridors like the Lobito Corridor. Applicants must demonstrate clear, measurable benefits to one or more sub-Saharan countries, including increased investment flows, improved local value addition, enhanced digital and energy infrastructure aligned with U.S. standards, and stronger institutional capacity in mineral governance. The program operates as a grant or cooperative agreement, not a procurement contract, with selected applicants expected to execute activities primarily within sub-Saharan Africa over a performance period of 12 to 36 months, with awards to begin no later than October 1, 2027. Proposals are submitted in two phases: first as a Statement of Interest (SOI) limited to four pages total—comprising a one-page Table of Critical Details, a two-page Narrative, and a one-page Summary Budget—all formatted in single-spaced 12-point Times New Roman with one-inch margins and submitted as a single PDF to af-a-proposals@state.gov by quarterly deadlines through May 31, 2027. Invitations to submit full proposals are extended based on SOI evaluation under four weighted factors: Quality and Feasibility of the Program Idea (40%), Organizational Capacity and Past Experience (25%), Leverage and Partnerships (20%), and Program Planning and Ability to Achieve Objectives (15%). Awards are made via a trade-off process prioritizing technical merit over cost, with indirect cost rates used only to break ties. Recipients must comply with 2 CFR Part 200, maintain active SAM.gov registration with a UEI, adhere to U.S. branding guidance, and comply with mandatory provisions including trafficking in persons mitigation, foreign funding disclosure under 20 U.S.C. § 1011f, and restrictions on abortion-related and equity ideology activities under PHFFA. Payment is processed through the HHS Payment Management System for U.S. entities and via SF-270 for non-U.S. recipients, with all financial reporting governed by Foreign Assistance Data Review standards
