Description
The NIST PSIAP is seeking applications from eligible organizations - entities that previously were awarded a grant, cooperative agreement, prize challenge, including a Small Business Innovation Research or Small Business Technology Transfer award originally made in the form of a procurement contract, or subaward by a federal entity (‘entities with a previous award”), such as NIST Public Safety Communications Research Division, National Telecommunications and Information Administration, Department of Homeland Security, etc., for a public-safety focused communication technology innovation - to propose activities that will either: (1) more rapidly advance their prototypes through needed technical and business assistance or (2) a demonstration project with a partnering public safety agency, to provide additional testing and research.

Additional Eligibility Information
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or cooperative agreement (including Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer awards originally made in the form of a procurement contract), or received an award as part of a prize challenge, from a federal agency (“entities with a previous award”) for a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).
