Computational Methods for Decision Making | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The "Computational Methods for Decision Making" opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number 12 SN 0009) is a 2012 Office of Naval Research (ONR) funding notice tied to ONR's broader research portfolio in science and technology. It sits specifically within ONR's Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) structure under the Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Mathematics, Computers and Information Research area, identified as Code 31, and more precisely under numbered paragraph 1 of that subsection. In practical terms, this means the topic is not being run as a standalone grant competition with its own unique application package and review rules; instead, it is a topic call that must be handled through the overarching ONR BAA process and requirements.

The notice emphasizes that proposal submission, evaluation, and any resulting awards will follow the policies and procedures laid out in the parent BAA, ONRBAA12-001. While this Special Notice exists on Grants.gov and includes additional details (including white paper due dates), applicants are explicitly instructed not to submit applications directly under the Special Notice itself. The correct path is to apply using the application instructions and Grants.gov package associated with ONRBAA12-001, and to follow whatever formatting, content, and routing requirements are specified there. The Special Notice is essentially a pointer and topic-specific addendum, while the BAA is the governing document for submission and award administration.

From a funding mechanics standpoint, the opportunity is listed as discretionary and supports both grants and procurement contracts, reflecting ONR's ability to fund projects through different award instruments depending on the nature of the work and the government need. The activity category is "Science and Technology and other Research and Development," and the CFDA number is 12.300 (Basic and Applied Scientific Research). No cost sharing or matching is required, which generally reduces barriers for applicants and indicates ONR is willing to fund the proposed scope without requiring institutional or third-party financial participation as a condition of eligibility.

Key dates in the public listing show it was posted and created on March 14, 2012, with an original and current closing date of July 3, 2012, and an archive date of August 2, 2012. However, the notice repeatedly flags that white paper due dates are contained in the Special Notice, and that full proposals must be submitted under ONRBAA12-001 by the close date specified there. It also notes that late full proposals may be considered only if agency time allows and if funding is still available, which is a common BAA-style caveat and not a guarantee of consideration.

Eligibility is not fully defined in the synopsis itself and is instead deferred to the eligibility language in ONRBAA12-001. The Grants.gov entry labels eligible applicants broadly as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which typically signals that a range of organizations may be eligible (often including universities, nonprofits, for-profits, and other research performers), but the authoritative eligibility rules are those in the parent BAA. Applicants are directed to consult the ONR BAA documentation (and the "Link to All ONR BAAs") for the controlling requirements.

For applicants who cannot access the full announcement online, the contact listed is Kenesha Hargrave, Contract Specialist, at (703) 696-5345. For technical issues related to the Grants.gov system itself, applicants are directed to Grants.gov support channels rather than ONR program staff, which is standard practice for federal opportunities posted through that portal.
