Solicitation # N0018927SGOSSN

The Department of War is seeking a Program Administrator to establish a voluntary after-tax payroll allotment pathway for active and Reserve Component Service members, civilian employees, and military retirees to make contributions to a certified Scholarship Granting Organization. This initiative is designed as a no-cost contract to the Government, meaning the contractor will receive no direct appropriations or government-funded payments. Instead, the administrator is authorized to retain an administrative fee subtracted directly from the voluntary payroll contributions processed through the Department of War and the Defense Finance and Accounting Service in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 25F and Section 530(b)(3)(A). The anticipated period of performance begins on January 1, 2027, consisting of a one-year base period with four optional one-year renewal terms. To be eligible, the contractor must be a single organization described in IRC Section 501(c)(3), exempt under IRC Section 501(a), and compliant with all SGO requirements under IRC Section 25F. Mandatory requirements include the ability to operate in every advance election State, a dedicated business line for administering public-funds education programs, and a fully operational digital platform. This platform must support application intake, award calculation, qualified-expense review, direct ACH payments to approved providers, and a closed-loop marketplace. Additionally, the contractor must provide a comprehensive financial literacy and education program and a real-time administrative reporting dashboard for government personnel.

The Weave funding scheme allows researchers from two to three European countries to submit joint research proposals through a centralized evaluation process. Operating on a Lead Agency principle, a single agency evaluates the project based on its existing funding rules and forwards the decision to partner organizations for endorsement and funding determination. Each participating national agency finances the sub-projects conducted within its own country, with a goal of supporting applications that rank in the top 20 percent of the evaluation round. Applicants must be eligible for funding in their respective countries and must submit their proposals simultaneously to all involved funders. While the research plan follows the Lead Agency guidelines, all other data must comply with the specific requirements of each national agency. Submissions are generally required in English and are accepted by the Swiss National Science Foundation on April 1 and October 1. Researchers are limited to one project proposal every twelve months and a maximum of two simultaneous project grants, one of which must be a Weave, Lead Agency, or ICIS project.

The Postdoc.Mobility fellowship, administered by the Swiss National Science Foundation, provides funding for researchers with a doctorate to conduct research stays abroad to enhance their scientific networks and professional profiles for future academic careers in Switzerland. The program typically funds a 24-month fellowship period, with an additional return phase of 3 to 12 months. Financial support includes grants for subsistence costs, travel expenses, and contributions for research and conference costs, as well as a return grant covering salary and social security contributions upon returning to Switzerland.

Eligibility is primarily reserved for Swiss citizens, holders of a Swiss permanent settlement permit, or those married to or in a registered partnership with a Swiss citizen. Alternatively, applicants who hold a degree from a Swiss institution and have not previously held a postdoctoral position abroad are eligible. General requirements include having completed a doctorate within the last three years, though medical researchers without an MD-PhD may apply up to eight years after their state examination provided they have at least three years of clinical activity. Applications must be submitted via the mySNF online platform. As part of a broader reform of career funding, the final submission deadline for these fellowships is August 3, 2027, with a new postdoctoral funding scheme scheduled for launch in 2028.

National Foundation for the Centers for Disease Control and PreventionThe National Foundation for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (NFCDC) is receiving funding to support administrative expenses that enable it to fulfill its mission of enhancing the CDC’s capacity to respond to domestic and global health threats through strategic partnerships. This grant does not fund research activities; any proposal involving research will be disqualified, as the program is strictly for non-research efforts aligned with CDC’s mission and strategic priorities. The foundation’s initiatives are designed to strengthen CDC’s operational effectiveness by supporting programs and projects that advance public health goals, with measurable outcomes tracked through the number of initiatives funded and the number of CDC Centers and Offices participating in those efforts. The funding is intended to build collaboration and accelerate impact across CDC’s network. The opportunity is posted under NAICS code 813211 and is managed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, operating under the Department of Health and Human Services. It was announced on August 6, 2026, with no set-aside designation specified. The point of contact for inquiries is Page Flynn, reachable at [email hidden] or [phone hidden]. The funding announcement is accessible through the Grants.gov portal, and potential applicants should consult the CDC’s official definitions of research to ensure compliance, as proposed research activities will not be considered for review or funding.
