Opportunity Summary:
The Interior Alaska Ecological Atlas Website Development Projects opportunity is a National Park Service (NPS) notice of intent to award a cooperative agreement, not an open call for applications. In other words, it is published mainly to inform the public that NPS plans to fund specific work under an identified project, rather than to solicit proposals from multiple organizations. The posting makes clear that applications will not be accepted from anyone other than Alaska Geographic, which is the intended recipient.
The planned award is a new cooperative agreement with an anticipated total funding amount of $100,000, with no cost share or matching requirement. The opportunity is listed under a discretionary funding category and falls within the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity area. The estimated number of awards is one, with an award ceiling of $100,000 and an award floor of $0. The announcement was posted on August 26, 2011, with an original and current closing date of September 9, 2011, and an archive date of October 9, 2011. The anticipated length of the agreement is stated as five years, and the period of performance referenced in the notice runs from 8/26/11 to 9/9/2011 as written in the source text.
The purpose of the project is website development tied to the Interior Alaska Ecological Atlas, with NPS and Alaska Geographic collaborating to develop public-facing products that communicate ecological information. A key feature of the award is the level of NPS involvement: the agency describes its role as indispensable because it holds core source materials such as data, images, maps, graphs, and specialized knowledge (including plant distribution information) that cannot be handed off easily without risking loss of quality or context. Because of that, NPS expects to participate actively throughout development, including ongoing collaboration, accuracy review, and iterative adjustments to product goals as technical constraints and limitations become clearer during implementation.
The notice also explains why a cooperative agreement, rather than a more hands-off funding mechanism, is appropriate. NPS brings scientific and resource expertise related to park units and Interior Alaska ecology, while Alaska Geographic and its affiliates bring strengths in interpretation, communication, and designing materials that connect people to resources, whether they are in-person visitors or online audiences. The announcement frames the partnership as complementary: combining NPS content authority and datasets with Alaska Geographic communication and engagement skills to produce a stronger and more usable web product than either party could likely deliver alone.
Administratively, the award is made under statutory authority cited as 16 U.S.C. 1(g), which supports NPS entering cooperative agreements involving transfer of appropriated funds to eligible entities for public purposes aligned with NPS programs (referencing section 6305 of title 31). The opportunity references CFDA program listings in the materials (including 15.944 in the narrative and 15.945 in the opportunity data). A point of contact is provided for access issues: Erica Cordeiro, Contract Specialist, at 907-644-3303.
