You may not submit an application for more than $15,000. (1)
Applications for short-term technical assistance may be funded
up to $15,000, with HUD providing payment directly to your authorized
consultant for the consultant's fee, travel, room and board,
and other approved costs at the government rate approved by HUD.
(2) Technical assistance initiated by HUD may be for any amount
up to $25,000 when HUD staff determine that more than 30 billable
days of technical assistance over a 90-day period is justified.
(B) Receipt of More than One
Application. If HUD receives more than one application from
a HA, or a group of RCs, ROs, or RMCs, or an Indian tribe and
a TDHE, in proximity to one another, HUD and its agent may exercise
discretion to consider any two or more applications as one, recommending
one or more consultants and executing contracts for any combination
of applications.
(C) Affirmatively Furthering
Fair Housing. Section II(D) of the General Section does not
apply to this NOFA because its purpose is to address specific
and targeted problems faced by Public Housing Authorities, Indian
tribes, Tribally Designated Housing Entities, Resident Management
Corporations, Resident Councils, or Resident Organizations in
their management of the Public Housing Drug Elimination Program
and to assist the applicants in the improvement of the effectiveness
of that program.
(D) Eligible Consultants.
HUD is seeking individuals or entities who have experience working
with public or Tribal housing or other low- income populations
to provide short-term technical assistance under this DETAP section
of the SuperNOFA. Consultants who have previously been deemed
eligible and are part of HUD's TA Consultant Database need not
reapply, but must update their file with more recent experience
and rate justification on an annual basis. HUD reserves the right
to consider a consultant name inactive in the database if the
consultant has not provided updated information for the database
within the last two years. The updated skills should list strengths
in priority order.
(1) To qualify as an eligible consultant, you should have demonstrated
knowledge and specialized experience in one or more of the following
general areas:
(a) PHA/Indian tribe or TDHE-related experience with:
(i) Agency organization and management;
(ii) Facility operations;
(iii) Strategic plan development, and
(iv) Prevention and intervention programs;
(b) Experience as an independent consultant, or as a consultant
working with a firm with related experience and understanding
of on- site work requirements, contractual, reporting and billing
requirements;
(c) Crisis Intervention/Mediation;
(d) Defensible Space/Crime Prevention through Environmental Design
Guidance on the development of Five-year PHA Plans;
(e) Assistance in the development or evaluation of PHDEP performance
indicators for each PHDEP activity;

mapping;
(g) Technology Assessments: Determination of how computer software
and hardware may be used to improve grant administration (e.g.
establishment of a crime statistics database; Training on Best
Practices (e.g. Peacemakers/Building Tolerance and Youth Violence
Prevention, Wellness Training, Development and Implementation
of Kobans, Development of Gun-Buyback programs);
(h) Establishment of Partnerships with Law enforcement partnerships;
(i) Drafting memoranda of understanding with partners;
(j) Translation of the strategic plan components into measurable
and attainable goals for the PHDEP Semi-Annual Performance Reporting
System;
(k) Plan versus Performance Assessments;
(l) Internet-based computer training as it specifically relates
to the administration of the PHDEP.
(2) Additional requirements for consultants include the following:
(a) In addition to the conflict of interest requirements in 24
CFR part 85, no person who is an employee, agent, officer, or
appointed official of an eligible applicant may be funded as
a consultant to that organization by this Drug Elimination Technical
Assistance Program.
(b) If you are a consultant who wishes to provide drug elimination
technical assistance services through this program, you must
not have had any involvement in the preparation or submission
of any DETAP proposal. Your involvement will be considered a
conflict of interest, making you ineligible for providing consulting
services to the eligible applicant and will disqualify you from
future consideration. This prohibition shall also be invoked
for preparing and distributing prepared generic or sample applications
to entities eligible to apply for funding under this program.
If HUD determines that any application submitted by a PHA, Indian
tribe or TDHE, RC, RO or RMC duplicates a sufficient amount of
any prepared sample to raise issues of possible conflict of interest,
and HUD determines you provided and distributed the sample, you
will be disqualified from receiving HUD funds.
(c) Consultants accepted into the DETAP are prohibited from soliciting
their services to eligible applicants.
(d) HUD-registered consultants are eligible to receive funds
to be reimbursed for up to $15,000 for conducting short-term
technical assistance. HUD or its agent will carefully review
the approved Statement of Work to ensure that resources allocated
are appropriate and reasonable for the work to be performed (e.g.
resources devoted to pre-on site preparation and on-site work).
Long-term results are expected from each job. After your work
is completed, evaluations from recipients of the technical assistance
services will be submitted to HUD on your work performance. The
evaluations will be carefully reviewed to make sure the recipients
of TA are satisfied with your services. If your performance receives
a satisfactory rating, you will be reimbursed by HUD. If the
housing authority is not satisfied with the report that is provided
by the consultant, HUD will require the consultant to correct
the report or address and/or resolve any issues raised by the
housing authority without additional costs. If these issues can
not be resolved, HUD will not be under obligation to reimburse
the consultant for any incurred costs except for transportation
and per diem costs. In extreme cases of technical assistance
needs, staff members of HUD Headquarters and field offices may
recommend specialized technical assistance for which you can
receive up to $25,000 in funds. You may not be the lead consultant
on any more than two active contracts or purchase orders at one
time nor be involved with more than one company at a time that
has active technical assistance contracts. You may not have any
more than four contracts or purchase orders and enter into a
purchase order agreement as a lead consultant within the calendar
year. The lead consultant may enter into a collaborative agreement
with other TA consultants listed in the database. In the case
of collaborative agreements, only one purchase order will be
issued to the lead consultant. The Department will have no obligation
to reimburse or issue a separate purchase order agreement with
collaborating consultants. Reimbursement to collaborating consultants
will be the responsibility of the lead consultant. If you are
working as a member of a multi-person firm, the key individual
for the specific contract must be listed on each contract as
the point of contact. The point of contact must be on-site more
hours than any other contracted staff billing to the purchase
order, and that individual may have no more than two purchase
orders active at the same time. Consulting firms may bill the
authorized daily rate only once per 24-hour period. Consultants
shall not bill more than once for a single day's work; for example,
if a firm consists of three consultants and the certified daily
rate is $470, they may not bill HUD $1,410 per day for their
services. Each individual consultant may not bill at his or her
daily rate. The aggregate number of hours billed by one or all
consultants on project must not exceed 8 hours per day.
(E) Ineligible Consultants.
Consultants and/or companies currently debarred or suspended
by HUD are not eligible to perform services under this program.
Also, consultants that are not in the official Consultant database
are considered ineligible for this program.
(F) Application Process for
Consultants.
(1) If you are an individual or entity interested in being listed
in the DETAP Consultant Database, you must prepare your application
and send it to the address specified in the application kit.
Before you can be entered into the Consultant Database, you must
submit an application that includes the following information:
(a) The Consultant Resource Inventory Questionnaire, including
at least three written references, all related to the general
areas listed in this DETAP section of the SuperNOFA. One or two
of the written references must relate to work for a PHA, Indian
tribe or TDHE, RC, RO or RMC;
(b) A resume;
(c) Documented evidence (e.g., w-2 Wage Statement, payment statement
etc.) of the standard daily fee previously paid to you for technical
assistance services similar to eligible activities under this
DETAP. In light of the recent drastic reduction in Drug Elimination
Technical Assistance funding, the standard daily fee will not
exceed the Equivalent Rate for Level IV of the Executive Schedule.
(2) HUD will determine your specific
fee based upon the evidence you submitted under this DETAP.
(3) If you are an employee of
a housing agency (HA), Indian tribe, or TDHE, you may not serve
as a consultant to your employer. If you serve as a consultant
to other than your employer, you must be on annual leave to receive
the consultant fee.
(i) Applicants are prohibited from selecting consultants by name
from HUD's consultant database.
(ii) Consultants will be recommended to an organization seeking
TA, based on factors including capacity to perform the technical
assistance, their strengths identified in the consultant skill
codes in the database, previous experience in the specified areas
of technical assistance, previous performance evaluation for
performing technical assistance, reasonableness of the fee, and
geographic proximity to the site where TA will be provided. If
no consultants in the database are within the geographical proximity,
consultants will be selected from the closest region to the site
where TA will be provided. The technical assistance to be provided
will be based upon an assessment of a maximum of three priority
areas of concern to the applicant. All of the skills that the
consultants possess are not eligible for providing technical
assistance under DETAP. If the priority areas of concern are
not identified in the application, the applicant will be contacted
by HUD or its agent to identify a maximum of three priority areas
of concern to target the technical assistance.
V. Application Selection Process
(A) General. HUD will
review applications on a first-come, first- served basis, until
funds under this DETAP section of the SuperNOFA are no longer
available. Eligible applications will be funded in the order
in which negotiations for a statement of work are completed.
HUD- Initiated applications will be received throughout the year
with no deadline or until funds are expended.
(B) Threshold Submission Requirements
for Funding Consideration. In addition to required forms,
certifications and assurances, found in the General Section of
the SuperNOFA, the following requirements must be included in
your application to be considered and approved for funding: If
you are requesting TA services, you must meet the following requirements:
(1) The applicant must answer the following questions: Note:
You cannot request technical assistance under DETAP by answering
``to conduct a needs assessment or survey.'' You must be able
to discuss what prevents you from identifying, describing, and/or
measuring the problems for which you are requesting technical
assistance. You must list your needs for TA in order of priority:
(a) Describe in detail the problem, issue or weakness that hinders
the proper administration or effectiveness of PHDEP.
(b) Identify what technical assistance you would like to receive.
(c) Explain how the technical assistance sought will improve
the administration of the grant or the effectiveness of the PHDEP
grant program.
(d) Describe how the technical assistance will be used in assisting
you in strategic planning. You may wish to address any or all
of the following:
(i) Establishment of a framework for annual program evaluation
of PHDEP activities;
(ii) Scheduling data collection for evaluation;
(iii) Identification of appropriate performance indicators, interpretation
of results of data collection;
(iv) Improving data collection and data elements;
(v) Guidance on the development of your 5-year plan;
(vi) Preparation assistance meeting your PHDEP semiannual performance
reporting requirements; or (vii) Crime mapping and identification
of appropriate hardware and software.
(e) Specify what outcome you expect to achieve and how it will
benefit PHDEP over the next five years. (f) How will the proposed
assistance allow you to develop an anti- drug, anti-crime strategy;
or how will the proposed assistance fit into your current strategy?
(g) The application must include the form, ``HUD Field Office/AONAP
Confirmation Form.''
(h) If your application does not meet the requirements described
above it will not be considered for funding.
(C) Application Awards.
(1) If your application is deemed eligible for funding and sufficient
funds are available, you will be contacted by HUD or its agent
to confirm the work requirements. Only one application will be
accepted from a HA, Indian tribe or TDHE; or group of RCs, ROs
or RMCs in proximity to one another. HUD may exercise its discretion
to consider any two or more applications as one, assuming that
the applications are received at the same time, or before approval
by the Chief Financial Officer and the Office of Procurement
and Contracts, executing the contract, and providing notification
to the consultant to proceed to work. If two or more applications
from HAs or resident groups are combined, the consultant to provide
the combined technical assistance should have the capability
to administer both or all types of technical assistance being
requested by each applicant. (3) Once your application for TA
has been reviewed and found acceptable by HUD, the TA Consultant
Database will be searched for consultants who have: (a) A principal
place of business or residence located within the same geographic
area as the applicant. For purposes of this program section of
the SuperNOFA, the term ``geographic area'' refers to, in order
of priority: city, state, region, and country; (b) The requisite
knowledge, skills, and abilities to respond to the request; and
(c) The most reasonable (least expensive) fees. (4) HUD will
then forward to you a list of suggested consultants from the
consultant database. From this list, you must select a consultant
to provide your requested TA.
(5)(a) From the list provided
by HUD, you must contact and interview a minimum of three TA
consultants. HUD may request confirmation from each contacted
consultant that they were contacted. To obtain the three consultants,
you must continue to call as many consultants as necessary from
the list to complete the three interviews. If HUD determines
that any consultant was not contacted, HUD (Headquarters) may
consider your selection by the applicant void. (b) After contacting
each consultant, you must send a written justification for your
recommended selection in order preference. If any are unacceptable,
you must also indicate the consultant and the reasons you find
them unacceptable. (c) If you find that all referred consultants
lack the requisite expertise, you must provide written detailed
documentation justifying this decision. If HUD determines that
your justification is adequate, you will be provided with a second
list of potential consultants. (d) If you do not provide HUD
the written justification of consultant choice within 30 calendar
days, HUD reserves the right to cancel your TA request.
(6)(a) HUD or its agent will
work with your selected consultant and you to develop a ``statement
of work.'' The statement of work should include:
(i) A time line and estimated budget;
(ii) A discussion of the kind of technical assistance and skills
needed to address the problem, and how the technical assistance
requested will address these needs; and
(iii) A description of the current crime and drug elimination
strategy, and how the requested technical assistance will assist
in improving the management and oversight of the PHDEP Grant
Program.
(b)(i) When HUD has completed the authorization to begin work,
your selected consultant will be contacted to start work. Your
consultant must receive written authorization from HUD or its
authorized agent before beginning to provide technical assistance.
The requesting organization and the relevant Field Office or
Area Office of Office of Native American Programs will also be
notified that authorization to begin work has been given.
(ii) Work begun before the authorized date will be considered
unauthorized and will not be compensated by HUD.
(iii) Consultants will only be reimbursed for a maximum of 30
days of work, which must be completed in fewer than 90 days from
the date of the approved statement of work. The exception to
this will be for HUD- Initiated technical assistance.
VI. Application Submission
Requirements
(A) General. In addition
to the program requirements listed in the General Section of
this SuperNOFA, each DETAP application must include both the
descriptive letter and certification statement to be eligible
for funding.
(B) Forms, Certifications
and Assurances. Your application must contain the items listed
in this Section VI(B). These items include the standard forms,
certifications, and assurances listed in Section II(G) of the
General Section of the SuperNOFA that are applicable to this
funding (collectively, referred to as the ``standard forms'').
The standard forms can be found in Appendix B to the General
Section of the SuperNOFA. The remaining application items that
are forms (i.e., excluding such items as narratives, letters),
referred to as the ``non- standard forms'' can be found as Appendix
B to this program section of the SuperNOFA. The items are as
follows:
(1) Applications must be signed and certified by both the Executive
Director or Tribal Council or authorized TDHE official and a
resident leader.
(2) The certification must indicate that:

VII. Corrections to Deficient
Applications
The General Section of the SuperNOFA
provides the procedures for corrections to deficient applications.
VIII. Environmental Requirements
In accordance with 24 CFR 50.19(b)(9),
the assistance provided under this program relates only to the
provision of technical assistance and therefore is categorically
excluded from the requirements of the National Environmental
Policy Act and is not subject to environmental review under the
related laws and authorities. This determination is based on
the ineligibility of real property acquisition, construction,
rehabilitation, conversion, leasing, or repair for HUD assistance
under this program.
