Early positioning intelligence
This project has been requested but not yet enacted. FFID often surfaces CPF/CDS-funded project intelligence months — and in many cases 12–18 months — before a formal solicitation appears on SAM.gov or a local procurement portal. Use this stage to identify the recipient, likely procurement channel, and principals before competitors wait for an RFP.

Grants.gov opportunity
FFID could not determine the procurement channel with high confidence for this agency and category combination. Check the agency program page, Grants.gov, the state procurement portal, and the recipient's own procurement page.
Monitor Grants.gov for NOAA NOFOs. Many flow to universities and state agencies.

Enactment likelihood is a probabilistic estimate based on member history in FFID data. It is not a guarantee. Members on Appropriations committees and majority-party members have higher historical rates.
Procurement portals to monitor
SAM.gov is one source. Many CPF/CDS-funded solicitations appear first on state and local portals. Check all channels.
Portal coverage confidence varies by state. FFID does not guarantee all local awards appear on these portals. Last updated: static map.
Procurement signals
No matched procurement signal found yet. FFID will check SAM.gov, Grants.gov, and connected state portals weekly. This project may still be in grant agreement, planning, design, or local procurement preparation.
