Opportunity Summary:
The NPI Training Opportunities posting (Funding Opportunity Number NPS WASO P12AC11201) is a National Park Service notice describing a cooperative agreement intended to support training and information-sharing work in the historic preservation field. The project is centered on collaboration between the National Center for Preservation Technology and Training (NCPTT) and the Association for Preservation Technology International (APT). Its core purpose is to strengthen preservation practice nationwide by expanding free public access to technical reference materials and by developing educational programming for practitioners.
A major deliverable described in the announcement is continued development and expansion of the Building Technology Heritage Library. This library is a digitized collection of architectural and construction trade catalogs and related publications, and it is specifically intended to be accessible to the public at no cost. In practical terms, the grant supports ongoing efforts to collect, digitize, organize, and make available historic building technology documentation that preservation professionals and the general public can use to better understand traditional materials, components, and construction methods.
In addition to the digital library work, the opportunity emphasizes the creation and delivery of technical preservation workshops. NCPTT and APT are expected to collaborate on workshop content that advances historic preservation by increasing the knowledge and capacity of the practitioners responsible for protecting historic resources. The announcement also notes that the educational content from these workshops, along with information tied to the APT annual conference, will be disseminated through the internet or another publicly accessible format, reinforcing the goal of broad, open distribution rather than limited, closed training.
From an administrative standpoint, this was categorized as an "Other" opportunity using a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument, and it falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category. The estimated total funding was $25,000, with an award ceiling of $25,000 and no cost sharing or matching requirement. Only one award was anticipated.
It is important that this posting was not an open competition. The announcement explicitly states it is a notice of intent to award a Task Agreement and that no applications or proposals were being accepted. Eligibility is listed as 501(c)(3) nonprofits (other than institutions of higher education), but the eligibility section makes clear the intended single recipient was APT. The posting date and creation date were August 16, 2012, with an original and current closing date of August 23, 2012, and an archive date of September 22, 2012.
For questions or access issues related to the full announcement, the listed contact was David Gebhardt, Contract Specialist at the National Park Service, reachable by phone at 303-969-2346 or by email at davidgebhardt@nps.gov.
