Active Government Funding Opportunities

This is a solicitation amendment for the Ensley Engineer Yard East Connector Bridge project, updating technical specifications, bid conditions, and evaluation criteria. The amendment adds NIST SP 800-171 cybersecurity compliance requirements for contractors handling DoD information systems.

This Department of Defense solicitation seeks new, warranted production of High Lift Adapter and Push Up Adapter peculiar support equipment (plus a munitions loader) for F/A-18E/F and EA-18G aircraft, for delivery to both the U.S. Navy and the Royal Australian Air Force. It is a standard procurement of existing equipment, with no new technology development requested.

USGS seeks a research partner to develop an enhanced gene expression panel that can distinguish among multiple stressors affecting marine species like sea lions, salmon, and mussels. The goal is early warning and ecosystem monitoring to support recovery and management decisions.

This Interior Department cooperative agreement seeks a robust method to correct for solution chemistry interferences in molecularly imprinted polymer electrochemical sensors used to detect contaminants like PFAS in complex environmental water. The work involves bench-scale proof of concept testing that scales to field-deployed trials.

This USGS cooperative agreement seeks research partners to build decision support tools for managing chronic wasting disease in deer and elk. The work models disease spread and tests surveillance and management strategies to protect wildlife across the northeastern and western US.

Seeks a partner to develop lidar-based workflows that estimate floodplain connectivity across Great Basin riverscapes, replacing limited field-based methods. The goal is scalable, continuous measures of river and riparian health to guide restoration and fish and wildlife recovery.

Seeking a CESU partner to support cisco restoration in Lakes Huron and Erie through a structured decision-making workshop for fisheries managers and experiments identifying hatchery conditions that produce the highest-quality cisco for reintroduction. It addresses declining native fish populations by combining decision science with applied aquaculture research.

USGS Powell Center seeks research to map where aquatic contaminants pose risks to aerial insectivorous birds across the U.S. and Europe. The spatially explicit framework will help decision makers anticipate environmental health risks at local, regional, and continental scales.

Research cooperative agreement studying how invasive cheatgrass fuels repeated wildfires in eastern sagebrush and Great Plains grasslands. The goal is mapping the invasive grass-fire cycle and identifying management strategies that help communities reduce wildfire risk.

Seeks scientific research on invasive plant risks in Hawaiʻi, analyzing horticultural trade and invasion records to identify high-risk species and areas. Findings will guide early detection, screening, and management to reduce wildfire, erosion, and ecosystem harm.

Seeks research to build a predictive modeling tool that forecasts non-native fish invasions, like brook trout and smallmouth bass, threatening bull trout and other native fish in Northwest freshwater streams. The tool will help managers prioritize actions to protect these ecosystems under changing climate conditions.

Seeks research partners to study how invasive plant control methods can stay effective as rising temperatures boost invasive plant growth in the Northeast. The work synthesizes practitioner experience and scientific evidence to help land managers adapt treatment strategies.

NSF seeks foundational engineering research on novel electrical, photonic, quantum devices, and advanced communications/sensing systems. Projects should explore transformative capabilities without requiring near-term commercialization or deployment plans.

NSF seeks foundational research in civil infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, intelligent systems, and materials science. Projects should be intellectually ambitious with potential for transformative breakthroughs, not requiring near-term commercial outcomes.

NSF funds foundational geosciences research across atmospheric, geospace, Earth, and ocean sciences. Projects advance knowledge frontiers with no requirement for near-term commercial outcomes, emphasizing intellectually ambitious and potentially transformative discoveries.

Seeks a contractor to construct a vehicle maintenance shop at Kadena Air Base in Okinawa, Japan, under a federal construction solicitation. Covers building work for maintaining military vehicles on the base.

The Army is seeking a commercial supplier for standard construction materials, including concrete, rebar, masonry blocks, mortar, and lumber, to support building work. It is a brand-name-or-equal purchase focused on existing products rather than new technology.

A DoD support contract for the Preservation of the Force and Family (POTFF III) programs, seeking contractor staff to deliver services across cognitive, physical, psychological, social, and spiritual domains plus enterprise data analytics. It aims to strengthen service member and family resilience and readiness through program support and analytics integration.

The Navy seeks innovative manufacturing processes to produce IR-transparent composite ceramics with nanoscale microstructures and minimal porosity at production scale. This enables advanced infrared aperture components that maintain optical clarity and mechanical strength under extreme thermal conditions.

The Army Corps of Engineers is seeking qualified road construction firms to rebuild storm-damaged Imperial Dam Road at Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona. The work covers reconstructing about 4,500 feet of roadway with improved drainage, culverts, and new signage and pavement markings.
