Additional Information of Eligibility:
Any commercial, international, educational, or non-profit organization(s), including any faith-based, community-based, or public international organization(s) capable of successfully combating exploitative child labor and developing and implementing educational and livelihoods programs to serve them is eligible to apply provided that they meet the requirements outlined below, which apply to all Applicants and any proposed subgrantees or subcontractors.

Applications from foreign governments and entities that are agencies of, or operated by or for, a foreign state or government will not be considered.

Applications from organizations designated by the U. S. Government to be associated with terrorism or that have been debarred or suspended will not be considered.

Applicants are not allowed to charge a fee (profit) associated with a project funded by USDOL under this award.

Lack of past experience with USDOL cooperative agreements, grants, or contracts is not a bar to eligibility or selection under this solicitation.

Applicants must be in compliance with all audit requirements, including those established in OMB Circular A-133.

For Applicants that are U.S.-based non-profit organizations and subject to the Single Audit Act, failure to conduct annual single audits or comply with single audit submission timeframes established in OMB Circular A-133 will result in an application being considered non-responsive and being rejected.

For Applicants that are foreign-based or for-profit organizations, failure to submit the most current independent financial audit will result in an application being considered non-responsive and rejected.

In addition, the submission of any audit report that reflects adverse opinions will result in the application being considered non-responsive and rejected.

Applicants must demonstrate presence in Jordan— either independently or through a relationship with another organization with country presence (i.e., a subgrantee or subcontractor)— enabling the Applicant to initiate program activities upon award of the cooperative agreement.

In the event of award, within 60 days, the grantee must provide either a written subgrant or subcontract agreement with such entity, acceptable to USDOL, or an explanation as to why that entity will not be participating in the cooperative agreement.

USDOL reserves the right to re-evaluate the award of the cooperative agreement in light of any such change in an entity’s status and may terminate the award if deemed appropriate.

The Government of Jordan must formally recognize the Applicant using the appropriate mechanism (e.g., Memorandum of Understanding, local registration of the organization) within 60 days of the signing of the cooperative agreement.

For the purposes of this solicitation and cooperative agreement awards, the Grantee will be the sole-entity: 1) to act as the primary point of contact with USDOL to receive and respond to all inquiries, communications and orders under the project; 2) with authority to withdraw or draw down funds through the Department of Health and Human Services-Payment Management System (HHS-PMS); 3) responsible for submitting to USDOL all deliverables, including all technical and financial reports related to the project (See Section V.C.); 4) that may request or agree to a revision or amendment of the cooperative agreement or the Project Document; and 5) responsible for working with USDOL to close out the project.

Each grantee must comply with all applicable Federal regulations and is individually subject to audit.

In accordance with 29 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 98, entities that are debarred or suspended from receiving Federal contracts or grants shall be excluded from Federal financial assistance and are ineligible to receive funding under this solicitation.
