Opportunity Summary:
The FY 2014 Safety Data Improvement Program (SaDIP) Notice of Funding Availability is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of Transportation's Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). Its core purpose is to help State governments strengthen how they collect, manage, and report crash data involving large commercial trucks and buses. Specifically, the program targets crashes that result in a fatality, an injury, or a vehicle being towed from the scene, with an emphasis on making the resulting records accurate, complete, and available quickly enough to be useful for enforcement and safety oversight.
FMCSA positions this funding as both financial and technical assistance aimed at improving the quality and timeliness of safety-related data that States supply. That data feeds directly into the agency's ability to keep current inventories, monitor motor carrier compliance, evaluate the condition and safety performance of commercial vehicle fleets, track the driving histories of licensed operators, and document crashes involving commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) on public roadways. The underlying logic of the program is straightforward: when States produce higher-quality and more timely crash and safety data, FMCSA can make better decisions and take more effective actions that support its broader mission of improving CMV safety.
From a funding standpoint, FMCSA estimated a total of $3,000,000 available under this notice, with an expectation of making about 12 awards. Individual awards were anticipated to range from a floor of $100,000 up to a ceiling of $500,000. The listing is associated with CFDA number 20.234 (Safety Data Improvement Program). The opportunity requires cost sharing or matching, meaning States are expected to contribute some portion of the project cost rather than relying entirely on federal funds.
Eligibility is limited to State governments. The opportunity was posted on January 13, 2014, and applications were due by February 27, 2014, with the archive date listed as March 29, 2014. The funding instrument type is a grant, and the activity category is Transportation, reflecting the program's focus on roadway safety data systems and processes connected to commercial truck and bus operations.
For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement through Grants.gov, the notice points to the Grants.gov Contact Center, available 24/7 (except federal holidays), at 1-800-518-4726 or support@grants.gov.
