NIJ FY 2010 Information Technologies Improved Delivery of Information to the Officer at the Scene | Apply Online

Opportunity Summary:

The NIJ FY 2010 Information Technologies: Improved Delivery of Information to the Officer at the Scene grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NIJ 2010 2409) is a discretionary National Institute of Justice program focused on strengthening what officers can do with mobile, handheld computing devices while they are actively responding in the field. The core goal is to fund the development of practical technology solutions that help get the right information to an officer at the scene faster and more reliably. NIJ is especially looking for approaches that add new or expanded data management and analytical capabilities, while also making smarter use of limited wireless bandwidth, which is often a real constraint during field operations.

The award mechanism for this solicitation is a cooperative agreement, meaning NIJ expects to be more actively involved than it would be under a standard grant, typically through collaboration, progress oversight, and coordination during the project. The activity area is aligned with law, justice, and legal services, with a strong science and technology research and development emphasis under CFDA 16.560 (National Institute of Justice Research, Evaluation, and Development Project Grants). The solicitation indicates there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, lowering the barrier for applicants that may not have nonfederal funds available to contribute.

Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, which generally means any type of entity can apply (for example, public agencies, universities, nonprofits, or private organizations), subject to any additional eligibility details that may be explained in the full solicitation. The opportunity was posted and created on February 17, 2010, with an application deadline (original and current closing date) of April 5, 2010, and it was later archived on July 5, 2010. The listing shows an award ceiling and floor of 0, which usually signals that the specific funding range was not captured in the summary record and applicants would need to consult the full solicitation for funding amounts, anticipated number of awards, and budget guidance.

Applications were required to be submitted electronically through the Office of Justice Programs Grants Management System (GMS), described as a web-based system that supports the full grant lifecycle from application through award and ongoing management. Applicants were encouraged to start registration early, particularly first-time users, to avoid missing the submission deadline due to account setup or verification delays. Instructions for registration and submission were provided through the GMS computer-based training site at www.ojp.usdoj.gov/gmscbt/. For technical problems with the submission process, applicants could 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 solicitation-specific questions or other nontechnical requirements, the point of contact listed was Michael Bottner, Program Operation Specialist, reachable at 202-514-0686 or michael.bottner@usdoj.gov. The posting also references an additional information link to the full solicitation, which would contain the detailed scope, required deliverables, performance measures, and any formatting or documentation requirements beyond what is summarized in the opportunity notice.
