Opportunity Summary:
The Demonstration Project to Enhance Medical Review Practices (Funding Opportunity Number DTNH22-12-R-00609) is a discretionary funding opportunity from the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the selected recipients should expect ongoing involvement and collaboration with NHTSA rather than operating as fully independent grantees. The program sits within the transportation activity category and is tied to CFDA 20.614, NHTSA Discretionary Safety Grants, with the overall purpose of supporting state-level efforts to improve driver licensing medical review practices that affect roadway safety.
NHTSA anticipates making up to two awards under this announcement. The estimated total funding for the initiative is $800,000 over a project period of up to three years from the effective date of award, but the notice also states that current available funding at the time of posting is $400,000. In practical terms, that signals the agency may initially have enough funds on hand for one award at the floor amount, with the possibility of reaching the full $800,000 total as funds become available and depending on the strength and fit of the proposals received. The award floor is listed as $400,000 and the award ceiling as $800,000, and the final number and size of awards will depend on the projects proposed and selected for funding.
Eligibility is limited to state governments, including their agencies. The opportunity is specifically aimed at applicants that already have real capability in the driver licensing and medical review space, so it is not designed for newcomers without a track record. To qualify, applicants must demonstrate several special competencies: documented expertise in driver licensing and medical review; the technical and management capacity to administer and complete a project on schedule; and the ability to arrange for a comprehensive independent evaluation of the project. The application is expected to include a narrative describing prior experience, with clear links between that experience and the proposed work, including concrete details such as project descriptions, the sponsoring agency, and references to final project reports (including the author name). In addition to technical qualifications, NHTSA requires evidence of management commitment: a letter from the DMV Administrator and assurances of support through the management chain, showing that the project has top-level backing and can be implemented effectively within the agency.
The timeline in the source data shows the opportunity was posted on June 15, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 29, 2012, indicating a short application window.
