Technical Assistance and Capacity 

Building; Request for Qualifications

Description of the Need for the 

Information and Its Proposed Use: The 

Narratives, Matrices and Reporting 

Requirements associated with NSP TA 

will allow CPD to accurately assess the 

experience, expertise, and overall 

capacity of applicants for technical 

assistance under the FY 2011 Program 

NOFA. They will also allow CPD to 

monitor and evaluate TA progress over 

the course of each grant and make 

necessary interventions. The new format 

for this type of collection also makes it 

easier for applicants to apply and report 

by reducing the time required for filling 

out an application and reporting forms, 

while retaining the utility of the 

previous collection methods.
