Intent to Award
PIN#85827N0003 Due:
The theatre development grant program is currently mid-cycle, with ongoing applicant support, panel review processes, and grantee deliverables that must be completed in accordance with the program design and the scope of services. A new vendor would require substantial onboarding time to understand the program’s structure, applicant pool, evaluation criteria, and administrative systems. Such a transition would jeopardize MOME’s ability to meet program deadlines and would impose unnecessary administrative burdens on both the agency and the applicant community. Please refer to the attached special case justification memo for additional details.
Description
