Opportunity Information: Apply for P17AS00317
The Department of the Interior, National Park Service is issuing a discretionary funding opportunity titled "Development of Online Launch Calendar, Phase III" under Funding Opportunity Number P17AS00317. This action is structured as a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that the National Park Service expects to have substantial involvement in the project during performance (for example, coordination on technical direction, deliverables, or implementation details), rather than simply providing funds with minimal agency interaction. The activity falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category and is associated with CFDA (now commonly referred to as Assistance Listing) number 15.945.
This notice is explicitly identified as a "Notice of Intent to Award" and not a request for applications. In practical terms, that means the agency is not soliciting open, competitive proposals through this posting; instead, it is signaling its intent to make a specific award, typically to a pre-identified recipient, for the purpose described. The opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $27,608, indicating the maximum federal funding amount planned for this agreement.
Eligibility is limited to public and state-controlled institutions of higher education. That restriction means only qualifying public colleges and universities (or similar state-controlled higher education entities) would be considered eligible recipients under this announcement. The posting was created on June 1, 2017, and the listed "Original Closing Date" reiterates that it is not a request for applications, so there is no standard application deadline in the way a competitive funding opportunity would normally have.
Programmatically, the project focus is the continued development of an online launch calendar in its third phase. While the brief description does not elaborate on technical requirements, scope, or expected deliverables, the title strongly suggests ongoing work to build, enhance, or maintain a web-based calendar tool related to launches, likely involving continued software development, data integration, user interface improvements, and/or operational support consistent with a Phase III continuation.Apply for P17AS00317
