About this opportunity

This federal grant opportunity from the Department of Defense (DOD) seeks applications for one-year option period awards to continue operating existing APEX Accelerators, which provide procurement technical assistance to businesses. Eligible applicants include state and local governments, tribal organizations, and 501(c)(3) nonprofits that currently have an APEX Accelerator award. Key requirements include offering free counseling and training to help businesses compete for federal, state, and local government contracts, as well as conducting outreach, maintaining an informative website, and achieving performance goals. Proposals will be evaluated based on program execution and cost factors, and are due by October 6, 2023.

The DOD anticipates awarding approximately 96 cost-sharing cooperative agreements totaling an estimated $50 million. Funding levels range from $450,000 to $1.5 million per award, depending on the recipient's service area coverage. The period of performance will be from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2025, extending the existing APEX Accelerator awards.
