Opportunity Summary:

This notice describes the National Park Service (NPS) intent to make a single, specific award to support the creation of a mobile, collection-based application for Springfield Armory National Historic Site (NHS). It is explicitly labeled as a "Notice of Intent to Award," meaning it is not an open call for proposals and not a request for applications. Instead, it serves as a public transparency step to inform the public that NPS plans to fund identified project activities without full and open competition.

The opportunity is listed under Funding Opportunity Number NPS 15 NERO 0074 and carries the title "NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD - Create Mobile Collection Based Application for Springfield Armory NHS." The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NPS expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, collaboration on technical direction, content, review, or project milestones), rather than simply issuing a grant with minimal agency participation. The activity category is noted as Natural Resources, and the associated CFDA number is 15.945, tied to Cooperative Research and Training Programs and Resources of the National Park System.

Funding details are narrowly defined: NPS anticipates making one award, with total estimated funding of $69,998. The award ceiling and award floor are both $69,998, which signals that the project scope and budget are already set and that NPS intends to fund at that exact amount. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so the recipient is not expected to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.

In terms of timing, the announcement was posted and created on June 30, 2015, with an original and current closing date of July 9, 2015, and an archive date of July 10, 2015. Because this is not a competitive solicitation, the "closing date" functions more like a formal notice period rather than an application deadline for the public. Eligibility is broadly labeled as "Others," with a reference to additional eligibility information in the full announcement, but the key point remains that the notice is not inviting applications and is instead documenting NPS intent to proceed with a non-competitive award approach.

For assistance accessing the full announcement, the notice provides a point of contact: Patrick Reidy, Grants Management Specialist, at phone number 215-597-5949. The agency listed is the National Park Service, and the description repeats the central message that the announcement exists to provide public notice of NPS intent to fund the project without full and open competition.
