FUNDING ANNOUNCEMENTS
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 that must ALSO be reviewed.
