Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Provide Technical Assistance to GEMA Preparedness Application Ready.Georgia" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA EH15 1508), is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) discretionary cooperative agreement designed to strengthen emergency preparedness in Georgia by improving GEMA's public-facing smartphone application, Ready.Georgia. The central aim is to provide the Georgia Emergency Management Agency (GEMA) with targeted support in the form of funding and technical guidance so the app can better serve residents before, during, and after emergencies. Ready.Georgia is a free application made available to the public through both Android and iPhone app stores, and the CDC makes clear that this award is not a procurement action; in other words, the CDC is not buying goods or services for federal government use, but rather partnering with an eligible recipient to advance a public health and preparedness purpose.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally signals a more hands-on partnership than a standard grant, with CDC involvement expected through guidance and collaboration as the work is carried out. The funding falls under the health activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.070, Environmental Public Health and Emergency Response. The opportunity anticipated a single award, with an estimated total funding amount of $145,000 and an award ceiling of $145,000 (with no stated minimum award floor beyond $0). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning the recipient was not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of the award.
Eligibility for this opportunity is narrowly defined as a sole-source, single-eligibility award to the Georgia Emergency Management Agency, and the eligible applicant type is listed as a state government. This means the funding was not competitively open to other states, local governments, universities, nonprofits, or private entities; it was structured specifically to support GEMA's work on Ready.Georgia.
In terms of timing, the announcement was posted and created on April 9, 2015, with an original and current application due date of June 9, 2015. Applications had to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The opportunity was later archived on July 9, 2015, indicating the funding cycle had concluded and the solicitation was no longer active after that point.
