Abstract: Authorized under the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018, the Social Impact Partnerships to Pay for Results Act (SIPPRA or Act), amends Title XX of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. 1397 et seq., to provide $100 million in funding to implement “Social Impact Partnership Demonstration Projects” (projects) and feasibility studies to assist states and local governments in applying for project funding. SIPPRA authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury (Secretary) to enter into award agreements with state or local governments for projects addressing entrenched social problems. SIPPRA requires the Department of the Treasury (Treasury) to conduct a request for proposals for projects, make award decisions, and enter into project award agreements. Treasury is publishing a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) seeking applications for projects, and anticipates that ten or more persons will respond to its notice announcing availability of funding for SIPPRA projects. Although Treasury is asking applicants to use the SF-424 family of common forms for their applications, in order to effectively and efficient assess and evaluate applications and ensure that projects comply with statutory requirements, Treasury is also soliciting additional detailed information from applicants. This request only includes the burden for this additional information. The burden for the SF-424 forms is covered under OMB Control Numbers 4040-0004, 4040-0006, 4040-0007, 4040-0008, 4040-0009, 4040-0010 and 4040-0013. The additional information includes the following components: • Project Narrative, to include an Executive Summary; • Project Narrative Attachments, to include project budget, partnership agreements, partner qualifications, independent evaluator qualifications, evaluation design plan, independent evaluator contract, outcome valuation), legal compliance, and (optional) additional supporting documentation such as a preexisting feasibility study; o The evaluation design plan is discussed further below • Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and SAM registration; • Copy of application proposing privileged or confidential information to be redacted; • Treasury Office of Civil Rights and Diversity Assurances and Certifications • Administrative Reporting, including Performance and Financial Report, Evaluation Progress Reports, and Final Evaluation Report; • Records Retention
