Welcome to Carpe Datum’s weekly newsletter, the Federal Data Prospector (Vol. 3, Issue 44) and let this be your official welcome to the U.S. Federal Government’s 2022 Fiscal Year! Given the mad dash that the last 3-4 weeks have been for most Contracting Officers, it’s no surprise that this week’s output of contracting opportunities is a bit below average; nevertheless, there are still a number of good ones in this week’s issue – so, happy hunting!
- “Cindy Daniell, head of research for the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), noted with a laugh that the biggest challenges for NGA were “everything.” The agency, she explained, has broken down its research portfolio into three major areas that form the basis of NGA’s Boosting Innovative GEOINT Research Broad Agency Announcement (NGA BIG-R BAA). The BAA was last updated Aug. 4 and will remain open for scientists, academics and small innovative companies to pitch prototyping projects through July 2023. Those three areas are: Foundational GEOINT, Advanced Phenomenologies and Analytic Technologies.”
