Opportunity Summary:
The Architectural Condition Assessments opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR8660120028) is a National Park Service (NPS) discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement under the Desert Southwest Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). The primary purpose is to support architectural condition assessments connected to NPS priorities, fitting within the broader federal activity area of Natural Resources and tied to CFDA 15.945, Cooperative Research and Training Programs - Resources of the National Park System. In practical terms, this kind of effort typically involves evaluating the physical condition of historic or park-related buildings and structures, documenting observed deficiencies, and providing professional findings that can inform preservation, maintenance planning, and resource stewardship decisions within the National Park System.
This announcement is not an open competition and is explicitly not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a notice of intent to make a single, noncompetitive award to the University of Arizona. The noncompetitive approach is justified under Department of the Interior policy cited as 505 Departmental Manual 2.12C, which provides internal authority and conditions under which an award may be made without full competition. Because it is a single-source action through the CESU framework, eligibility is effectively limited to the identified partner institution for this specific task agreement, even though the listing shows the general eligible applicant category as "Others" with clarification in the eligibility notes.
The opportunity anticipates one award with an estimated total funding amount of $92,433. No cost sharing or matching is required, meaning the recipient is not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the award. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of $0, which often appears in postings where the agency does not use those fields to define a range, relying instead on the estimated total funding figure and the task agreement scope to control the final amount.
Key dates indicate the notice was posted and created on June 19, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 25, 2012, and an archive date of July 25, 2012. For a noncompetitive notice of intent like this, the short open period generally functions as a public posting requirement rather than a window for competing submissions. Anyone needing help accessing the full announcement was directed to contact Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at 303-969-2392.
