Additional Information of Eligibility:
This NOFO is open to entities that have been awarded a grant or cooperative agreement (including Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer awards originally made in the form of a procurement contract), or received an award as part of a prize challenge, from a federal agency (“entities with a previous award”) for a public-safety focused communication technology innovation.
NIST will only consider one application per applicant, for a single technology innovation, at a time.
Applicants may only request funding for either (1) technical and business assistance or (2) a demonstration project, in a single application.
Entities with multiple eligible technology innovation awards may submit multiple applications, but only one application per technology innovation will be considered at a time.
After the applicant has completed their proposed technical and business assistance or demonstration project (or been notified that their initial application will not be funded), they may reapply to this NOFO for the other funding opportunity (i.e., the same technology innovation may not receive two technical and business assistance awards or two demonstration project awards, but may receive one of each type).
