FY 2024 – 2026 Broad Agency Announcement (BAA), National Marine Fisheries Service

Summary

This is a multi-year Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) issued by the NOAA National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) covering fiscal years 2024 through 2026. BAAs are used by federal agencies to solicit research and development proposals across a wide range of topics relevant to the issuing agency's mission. NMFS focuses on the stewardship of living marine resources, so proposals likely relate to fisheries science, marine ecosystem research, habitat conservation, and related disciplines. The announcement remains open on a rolling basis from July 2024 through September 2026.

How they evaluate

• Not specified in synopsis — typical BAA criteria include scientific/technical merit, relevance to NMFS mission, qualifications of investigator(s), and reasonableness of cost

Risks & flags

• Minimal detail provided in the synopsis — full BAA terms, topic areas, eligibility, and evaluation criteria are not disclosed in this record; bidders must retrieve the full announcement to assess scope and competitiveness.
• Multi-year rolling window (27+ months) with no per-award value disclosed, making budget planning difficult for applicants.
