Feedback on Cooperative Agreements Program Sample Clauses

Feedback on Cooperative Agreements Program. The FGDC CAP Grant has been a very beneficial program to assist metadata development and progress. Having received these grants for several years has allowed the NBII to assist hundreds of people and organizations create metadata and post it to Clearinghouses, which is beneficial to the science community and other research and learning communities. I would like to see the FGDC host a post CAP Grant meeting in which those organizations that were awarded funding can present the results of their projects. By sharing successes and challenges, new partnerships could be formed, progress could be seen, and the energy already developed from the success of the projects could be extended to the future.

Feedback on Cooperative Agreements Program. What are the CAP Program strengths and weaknesses? The strength of the program comes from the varied types of grants that are available in order to assist with advancement of GIS initiatives and programs. In my experience, I did not encounter any weaknesses. Where does it make a difference? It makes a huge difference. Through the relatively small amount of money we received (less than $50,000), we were able to conduct multiple outreach sessions, get local government buy-in to the program, develop a strategic plan, research funding options, create speaking points for talking with decision makers, and ultimately begin to collate additional layers for our SSDI. Without the assistance from the CAP grant, we would not have been able to get a neutral seasoned third party to assist with the effort. Without the neutral, seasoned facilitator, it is firmly believed that most, if not all of the work completed, would not have been possible. Was the assistance you received sufficient or effective? Yes – it was both sufficient and extremely effective. This level of “seed money” was crucial to the project. What would you recommend that the FGDC do differently? No suggestions at this time. Are there factors that are missing or additional needs that should be considered? No suggestions at this time. Are there program management concerns that need to be addressed, such as the time frame? Having a one year timeframe is not long enough, given the procurement vehicles in South Carolina, as well as the logistical planning required to bring in all necessary parties. However, because the CAP grant program allows for extensions, with the added time, everything was able to be completed. If you were to do this again, what would you do differently?
Feedback on Cooperative Agreements Program. What are the program strengths and weaknesses? Strength - provides support to NSDI-cooperative efforts and activities. Weakness - limited funds, one-time-only support Where does the program make a difference? Where there are interested people who are willing to donate time and effort. Was the assistance you received sufficient or effective? It was sufficient for the task proposed. It was efficient (three additional workshops were conducted.) It would have been more effective if the full scope of work could have been funded (a $ 66,000 proposal, previously submitted). What would you recommend doing differently? Enabling successful projects to be continued over several years. And of course, providing more funds for the purpose. No. Are there factors that are missing or need to consider that were missed? Are there program management concerns that need to be addressed? Time frame? The on-line grant application and registration method is difficult, time-consuming, frustrating, and unproductive.

Feedback on Cooperative Agreements Program. The necessary resources to fulfill a comprehensive strategic planning effort could not have been accomplished without efforts of the CAP through the partnership with FGDC and USGS. This funding allowed us to hire an outside professional to provide experience and perspectives that we would have not otherwise provided for this project. The FGDC was flexible in allowing us to extend the completion of the project as to allow transition in new management and coordination within our state to fulfill the objectives of the project. If we would have conducted the project again we would try to secure additional matching dollars to further complete business plans.
