Grant Description

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), United States Department of Commerce (DoC), is soliciting grant proposals for construction of research science buildings. NIST anticipates funding 3-5 projects with the Federal shares in the $10 million - $15 million range and with a project period of performance of up to five (5) years, although there is an expectation that most of the projects will be completed prior to 5 years. The anticipated start date will be one month after the award is made. The period of performance depends on the construction schedule proposed. Non-Federal cost sharing of at least 20 percent of the yearly total allowable project costs is required. Cost sharing does not include unallowable/ineligible costs.
