Opportunity Summary:
The NIC Cost Containment Online Resource Center Project (Funding Opportunity Number 10PEI40) was a discretionary federal grant opportunity offered by the National Institute of Corrections under CFDA 16.602 (Corrections Research and Evaluation and Policy Formulation). The agency sought a single awardee to carry out an 18-month cooperative agreement focused on building a dedicated online resource center aimed at helping corrections professionals manage and reduce costs through systems-level strategies. The work was intended to result in a practical, evidence-informed hub hosted directly on the NIC website.
The core deliverable of the project was the development of the NIC Cost Containment Online Resource Center (CCORC), designed to function both as a repository of useful materials and as a forum for information exchange. In practical terms, the online center was meant to gather and organize current, actionable, and evidence-based resources that corrections practitioners could use to develop, implement, and refine cost-containment initiatives. Rather than focusing on isolated cost-cutting tips, the emphasis was on broader system approaches that could be adopted across agencies and facilities, supporting decision-makers with tools and information grounded in real-world practice.
The funding structure reflected a relatively small, targeted build: the award ceiling was $150,000, with no stated award floor, and no cost sharing or matching requirement. Only one award was expected, suggesting NIC wanted a single lead entity responsible for delivering a cohesive product and coordinating closely with the agency during development, which is consistent with the “cooperative agreement” instrument type (where substantial agency involvement and collaboration is typical compared to a standard grant).
Eligibility was broad and intentionally inclusive. NIC allowed applications from state governments and general units of local government, private agencies, educational institutions, organizations, and even qualified individuals or teams. The key eligibility factor was not organizational type, but demonstrated expertise in the relevant areas and the proven ability to implement a project of this size and scope, implying applicants needed both subject-matter understanding of corrections cost containment and practical capacity to design, build, and manage an online resource environment suitable for practitioners.
The opportunity was posted and created on August 6, 2010, with an original and final closing date of August 30, 2010, and it was archived on September 29, 2010. Applicants needing help accessing the full announcement were directed to contact Pamela Davison, Administrative Assistant, at (202) 353-0484.
