Opportunity Summary:

The NIJ FY 10 Criminal Justice Electronic Crime Technology Center of Excellence grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NIJ 2010 2397) is a discretionary National Institute of Justice solicitation to select an operator for the Criminal Justice Electronic Crime Technology Center of Excellence within the National Law Enforcement and Corrections Technology Center (NLECTC) System. The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means NIJ expects substantial involvement in guiding or collaborating on the work rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal interaction. The Center itself is positioned as a national resource focused on electronic crime and the technologies used to investigate, prevent, and respond to it across the criminal justice system.

The core purpose of the opportunity is to ensure the Center can deliver practical, science and technology focused support that strengthens NIJ research and development efforts while also speeding up the real world adoption of effective tools. In plain terms, the Center is expected to help bridge the gap between research and day to day operations by supporting technology demonstration, transfer, and adoption for law enforcement and corrections agencies, courts, and public crime laboratories. In addition to hands on technical assistance, the Center is expected to contribute to the development and dissemination of technology guidelines and standards, and to serve as an ongoing source of technology assistance, information, and support for criminal justice practitioners dealing with electronic crime challenges. The solicitation notes that the Center was initially established in 2009 through a competitive award to Electronic Crime Partnership Initiative, LLC, signaling that NIJ is continuing or recompeting an existing capability within the NLECTC structure.

Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the competition is open to any type of entity as long as it meets any conditions described in the full solicitation. The listing also indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The posted and creation date is March 4, 2010, with an original and current closing date of April 19, 2010, and an archive date of July 19, 2010. The award floor and ceiling are shown as 0 in the summary data, which usually means applicants need to consult the full solicitation for actual funding expectations, project scope, and budget guidance rather than relying on the high level database fields.

Applications are required to be submitted through the Office of Justice Programs Grants Management System (GMS), an online platform described as providing end to end support for application submission, award processing, and grant management. Applicants are urged to begin registration immediately, particularly first time users, because registration can take time and delays could jeopardize an on time submission. The solicitation provides the GMS training and registration resource at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmscbt/ and directs applicants who run into technical problems to contact the GMS Help Desk at GMSHelpDesk@usdoj.gov or call 1 888 549 9901 (option 3), available Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to midnight eastern time, excluding federal holidays. For solicitation content questions or other non technical requirements, the point of contact is Michael Bottner, Solicitation Coordinator, reachable at 202 514 0686 or michael.bottner@usdoj.gov.
