Synopsis 49100421Q0007: NSF SII-Center Proposers’ Lab services
The National Science Foundation (NSF) intends to make an award to Knowinnovation for NSF SII- Center Proposers’ Lab services
The NSF Spectrum Innovation Initiative (SII) is a new NSF program designed to catalyze innovation research and cooperation between the nation’s many sectors engaged in spectrum research, including but not limited to federal agencies, commercial business, academic researchers, and formal and informal education institutions. In May 2020 NSF awarded 17 SII-Center planning grants to encourage interested groups to begin work designing plans for a national SII-Center that will meet the broad and visionary goals of NSF’s SII program. The SII-Center is a 5-year, $25M grant from NSF that is planned to be awarded in summer 2021. Because of the broad and visionary scope that NSF aims to support in an SII-Center, it is essential that NSF engage in pre-proposal activities with the prospective proposers to make clear the aims and goals that NSF seeks to enable through this new initiative. The need to catalyze novel ideas and new productive relationships between researchers who previously have not worked together and who may have previously been competitors is a great challenge and requires careful social engagement management. This is a key element of what Knowinnvation does in its Lab pre-activity with NSF. No other comparable contractor has been identified through market research that is able to provide both the pre-activity planning and development as well as the day-of facilitation of the activity.
The period of performance will be:
Base: November 5, 2020 – January 4, 2021
The proposed contract action is for services for which the government intends to sponsor with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals.
