Opportunity Summary:
The Technology Enhanced Interpretation Development opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number NPS NOIR1378120016) is a National Park Service discretionary funding action that will be issued as a cooperative agreement under the Colorado Plateau Cooperative Ecosystem Studies Unit (CESU). It is framed as a notice of intent rather than an open solicitation, meaning it is not designed to attract or compete proposals from the public. Instead, the National Park Service states that it will make a noncompetitive, single-source task agreement award in line with Department of the Interior policy (505 Departmental Manual 2.12C). The project is positioned within the Natural Resources funding activity area and is associated with CFDA 15.945, which covers cooperative research and training programs related to resources of the National Park System.
In practical terms, the announcement is mainly informational: it documents the government’s intent to fund a specific partner for a specific purpose rather than inviting applications. The expected number of awards is one, and eligibility is effectively restricted because the award is identified as single-source to Northern Arizona University. While the listing includes an “Eligible Applicants” category that points readers to additional eligibility clarification, the text explicitly states this is not a request for applications, so other organizations should not expect to apply or be considered under this notice.
The total estimated funding amount for the action is $116,435. The listing shows no stated award ceiling or floor (both listed as 0), which typically indicates that the funding level is defined by the planned agreement rather than by a competitive range published for applicants. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement identified, so the recipient is not expected to provide matching funds as a condition of the award. The opportunity was posted and created on June 20, 2012, with an original and current closing date of June 25, 2012, and an archive date of July 25, 2012, reflecting a short public posting period consistent with notices that document an intended noncompetitive award rather than a full competition.
For those trying to locate the full details, the notice indicates that more information is contained in an attached announcement. If there are access issues obtaining the full announcement electronically, the point of contact listed is Kelly Adams, Grants Management Specialist, at (303) 969-2392.
