Funding Announcements “SPEAR” Workshop Presented by: Trey Bauer

Funding Announcements How do we find out about funding? FOA, PA, RFP, RFQ, RFA, FFO, SOL(icitation), etc. Funding Opportunity Announcement, Proposal/Program Announcement, Request for Proposals, Request for Quotes, Requests for Applications, Federal Funding Opportunity, Solicitation How do YOU find the announcement? It depends on what information you have. Could go by title, number, sponsor, type, etc. – it all depends! Why are they important? They give guidelines on what is allowed or not, and explain how proposals are to be crafted. THEY ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT! But sometimes they may not tell the whole story – some agencies refer back to additional documents/guidelines that must ALSO be reviewed.

Funding Announcements Important information to find regarding the proposal Due Date Investigator and/or Institution Eligibility Maximum Award Amount Length of Award F&A restriction Cost share – portion of project costs not borne by the sponsor FSU does not commit cost share unless required by the sponsor
