Unsolicited Proposals and Concepts Guidelines

It is the policy of FDDC not to accept unsolicited proposals (those with detailed information such as scope of work and budget) from groups and individuals seeking funding from the council.

When a proposal is received, it should be immediately forwarded to the Executive Director who will send a response within two weeks, indicating the Council does not accept unsolicited proposals and directing them to comment on our state plan.

When a concept proposal (without a detailed work plan or budget) is received, it should be sent to the Executive Director who will send the form letter response within two weeks. At the same time, the Executive Director will forward the concept paper to the appropriate task force for consideration as a project, with a copy to PPE committee, so that both the task force and committee can consider these as comments on the state plan.
