Opportunity Information: Apply for 72049719RFI00003

USAID/Indonesia Improving Local Governance and Service Delivery (Funding Opportunity Number 72049719RFI00003) is a Request for Information issued by USAID in Jakarta to gather market input on a planned activity tentatively titled "Improving Local Governance and Service Delivery." The central idea behind the activity is to strengthen local governance across Indonesia while also improving how basic public services are delivered in communities nationwide. Although the opportunity appears in the grants listings ecosystem, the document being advertised here is not a funding competition; it is an information-gathering step meant to help USAID shape a later, formal solicitation.

Because this is strictly an RFI, organizations are not being asked to submit applications, proposals, technical approaches for award, or budget offers at this stage. USAID is only requesting written feedback and information responding to the specific questions and prompts in the RFI document itself. Submissions are described as confidential, which typically means USAID intends to use the input for internal planning, acquisition and assistance design, and refinement of scope, rather than treating responses as public proposals in a competitive process.

The notice signals that USAID anticipated releasing a formal solicitation in early 2020, which would be the point at which an actual Request for Applications (for grants/cooperative agreements) or Request for Proposals (for contracts) might be issued, complete with eligibility rules, evaluation criteria, and submission instructions. The listing includes an award ceiling of up to USD 40,000,000, which is best read as an indicative planning figure associated with the future activity rather than a guaranteed amount tied to the RFI itself. The number of expected awards is not specified in the summary, leaving open the possibility of one large award or multiple awards depending on USAID's final design.

In terms of thematic focus, the activity is categorized under Law, Justice and Legal Services and references CFDA 98.001, which is associated with USAID foreign assistance. The wording "enhance local governance" and "improve basic service delivery" suggests the eventual program could cover areas such as local government performance, accountability, transparency, citizen engagement, public financial management, service standards, planning and budgeting, and systems that connect local authorities to community priorities. The phrase "across the country" also implies a potentially broad geographic footprint, potentially working with multiple provinces and districts rather than a single pilot area.

Participation in the RFI is open to both U.S. and non-U.S. organizations, and the eligible applicant field is broad ("Others"), signaling that USAID wanted wide-ranging perspectives from implementing partners, local entities, NGOs, firms, universities, consortia, or other stakeholders with relevant experience in Indonesian governance and service delivery. The original closing date for RFI responses was October 4, 2019, and the opportunity was created on September 15, 2019. For the exact questions USAID asked respondents to address, the notice directs interested parties to the full RFI posted under the "Related Documents" section of the announcement.
