Opportunity Information: Apply for DLA 201901
The Procurement Technical Assistance Program - Existing PTACs only (Funding Opportunity Number DLA 201901) is a discretionary federal funding opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Defense through the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). It supports the continuation of the Procurement Technical Assistance Program (PTAP) by providing additional funding to already established Procurement Technical Assistance Centers (PTACs) through an option period award. In practical terms, this is not a start-up or expansion competition aimed at brand-new applicants; it is designed to extend or continue support for centers that are already operating under the program.
Funding is provided through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement during the performance period. Cooperative agreements are commonly used when the agency anticipates collaboration, ongoing oversight, coordinated planning, or participation in shaping program deliverables, rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal interaction. The activity category is listed as Business and Commerce, reflecting the program's focus on helping businesses navigate government procurement and related contracting opportunities.
Eligibility is restricted. The opportunity is explicitly for existing PTACs only, with the eligibility field indicating "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)." The key takeaway is that applicants must already be PTACs operating within the PTAP framework and seeking an option-period continuation. Organizations that are not already part of the PTAC network would not be the intended audience for this award.
The award ceiling is $750,000, meaning individual awards under this opportunity are expected to be at or below that amount. The opportunity anticipates up to 97 awards, which aligns with a continuation-style action across a broad network of existing centers rather than a small number of large new projects. The CFDA number associated with the program is 12.002, which is tied to the Defense Logistics Agency's procurement technical assistance efforts.
Key dates show the opportunity was created on July 6, 2018, and had an original closing date of September 30, 2019. The central purpose, as stated in the description, is straightforward: to provide an option period award to existing PTACs, allowing them to continue delivering procurement technical assistance services under the program with continued federal support and coordination.Apply for DLA 201901
