FY 2010 WIC Technical Standardization Project Grant Solicitation

archived

In accordance with Public Law 111-80 (123 Stat.2113), the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) plans to award grant funds to WIC State agencies to support technical standardization projects. This Request for Application (RFA) for Technical Standardization grants is open to all WIC State agencies. Grant funds will be awarded based on the viability of the project and completeness of the application. The award of funds under this RFA does not guarantee funding under future technical standardization grant solicitations. The purpose of the Technical Standardization Grant is to support software development for technical area standardization and to conduct feasibility studies that support WIC technology goals. FNS anticipates awarding funds for technology standardization to one or more State agencies. The amount of funds awarded under this RFA depends on the number of requests received and the viability of the project. If funding levels are not sufficient in FY 2010 to fund these technical standardization grants, grants may be awarded in the subsequent fiscal year, subject to the availability of funds, based on responses to this solicitation, without further competition. Specific application requirements are provided in the attached RFA.
