NIJ FY 10 Developing and Evaluating Location based Information Systems for Offender Supervision | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The NIJ FY 10 Developing and Evaluating Location-based Information Systems for Offender Supervision opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NIJ-2010-2391) is a discretionary research and development solicitation from the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) under CFDA 16.560. It supports projects that either (1) develop improved location-based information systems to help agencies manage offenders who are supervised in the community or (2) rigorously evaluate how effective these location-based systems are in real-world supervision settings. In practical terms, the focus is on technology and related information systems that use location data (for example, GPS-enabled monitoring and associated software platforms) to strengthen community supervision practices, enhance decision-making, and improve how supervision agencies track, respond to, and manage offender behavior in the field.

Awards are made as cooperative agreements, which generally indicates NIJ expects to have substantial involvement during the project period (for example, through collaboration on project direction, milestones, evaluation expectations, or dissemination of results). The solicitation lists no cost-sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute non-federal matching funds. The posting date is March 31, 2010, with an application deadline (closing date) of June 1, 2010, and an archive date of September 1, 2010. The award ceiling and floor are listed as 0 in the summary data, which typically means applicants need to consult the full solicitation for any specific budget constraints, recommended funding ranges, or anticipated number of awards.

Eligibility is described as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications contained in the full solicitation text. That wording usually signals that a broad range of applicants may apply, including public agencies, universities, nonprofit organizations, and private entities, as long as they meet any conditions detailed in the complete announcement.

Applications must be submitted through the Office of Justice Programs (OJP) Grants Management System (GMS), a web-based system used for end-to-end grant administration (from application submission through award management). Because registration can take time, especially for first-time users, applicants are encouraged to start the GMS registration process as early as possible to avoid missing the deadline. Instructions and training resources for registering and submitting an application through GMS are provided at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmscbt/. For technical problems with GMS, applicants can contact the GMS Help Desk by email at GMSHelpDesk@usdoj.gov or by phone at 1-888-549-9901 (option 3), available Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to midnight Eastern Time, excluding federal holidays.

For programmatic questions or other solicitation requirements beyond technical submission issues, the agency point of contact is Jack Harne, Physical Scientist, reachable at 202-616-2911 or via email at jack.harne@usdoj.gov. The solicitation also references an additional information link pointing to the full solicitation announcement, which applicants would need to review for detailed requirements such as deliverables, evaluation standards, allowable costs, project timelines, and any specific priorities NIJ emphasized for location-based offender supervision systems.
