IC CAE Program | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The IC CAE Program grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number HM1582 11 BAA 0001) is a discretionary, competitive grant announcement released by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) under the broader umbrella of science and technology and other research and development activities. It is tied to CFDA 12.630, which covers basic, applied, and advanced research in science and engineering, signaling that the program is oriented toward research efforts that can range from foundational investigations to more mature, application-driven work. The funding instrument is a grant (not a contract), and the opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching, meaning applicants are not expected to contribute a mandatory financial share as a condition of receiving an award.

A key point in the posting is that Amendment 01 was issued to revise the Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and extend the proposal due date. The opportunity was originally set to close on April 5, 2011, but the amended (current) closing date is April 19, 2011. The posting date is listed as February 18, 2011, with a creation date of March 17, 2011, and an archive date of May 5, 2011, which indicates when the listing would be taken out of active circulation on the grants portal.

In terms of funding scale, the program indicates a wide award range, with an award floor of $400,000 and an award ceiling of $4,000,000. This suggests NGA anticipated making awards that could support substantial research efforts, potentially including multi-year, multi-investigator, or resource-intensive projects, while still allowing for smaller but meaningful research programs at the lower end of the range. The ceiling also implies that proposals could be ambitious in scope, provided they fit within the technical and mission needs described in the underlying BAA.

Eligibility is limited to institutions of higher education, specifically private universities/colleges and public or state-controlled universities/colleges. No other eligible applicant categories are listed in the provided details, so the opportunity appears tailored to academic research organizations rather than private companies, nonprofits outside higher education, or government entities. The opportunity title, "IC CAE Program," indicates a program connected to the Intelligence Community (IC) and a CAE designation (as named in the announcement), with NGA serving as the sponsoring agency for the grants.

For applicants who cannot access the full announcement electronically, the provided point of contact is James Troutman, Grants Officer, reachable by phone at 571-557-2466 or by email at james.b.troutman@nga.mil. This is the official contact channel for administrative access issues and likely also for procedural questions tied to the amended BAA and submission requirements.
