Opportunity Information: Apply for DOD 2024 APEX ACCELERATOR
The "APEX Accelerator Option Period for existing award recipients" grant opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number: DOD 2024 APEX ACCELERATOR) is a discretionary funding action from the Department of Defense, specifically through ACC-APG-Aberdeen Division A. It is designed to support the continuation of work under cooperative agreements by funding option award periods for organizations that already hold an APEX Accelerator award. In other words, this is not framed as a brand-new startup competition for first-time applicants; it is aimed at extending or continuing performance for current APEX Accelerator recipients through an option period mechanism within an existing cooperative agreement structure.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates an arrangement where the government expects to have substantial involvement in the funded activities (as compared with a standard grant). The program sits in the Business and Commerce activity category and is associated with CFDA number 12.002. The opportunity anticipates a relatively large number of awards overall (96 expected awards), with an award ceiling listed at $1,500,000, indicating the maximum amount that may be available per award under the terms of the opportunity.
Eligibility, as listed, spans a wide range of public and nonprofit entities: state governments; county governments; city or township governments; special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; and 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations (excluding institutions of higher education in that nonprofit category). These eligibility categories reflect the types of organizations that typically operate regionally focused assistance programs and are positioned to deliver services aligned with the APEX Accelerator mission.
Key dates included in the source information show the opportunity was created on July 21, 2023, with an original closing date of October 6, 2023. The core purpose statement is straightforward: the funding is specifically for executing cooperative agreement option periods for existing APEX Accelerators, meaning the primary intent is continuity of ongoing program delivery rather than launching new, unrelated projects.Apply for DOD 2024 APEX ACCELERATOR
