CAOE Research Grant Program Overview
The Center for Accelerating Operational Efficiency (CAOE), a Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Center of Excellence, is seeking full proposals describing research ideas intended to address issues/challenges that CAOE, DHS, or its federal partners have posed (see page 4 of the CAOE Broad RFP 2024 for those provided for this competition). The purpose of the proposal is to convey the essential problem area within the four themes listed below and relevant to one or more DHS component agencies, demonstrate knowledge of prior art, identify a knowledge/capability gap, and propose a solution approach. CAOE leadership and DHS sponsors will review proposal submissions to identify those for which funding will be considered. A formal review process including evaluation of scientific merit and relevance to the Homeland Security Enterprise (HSE) will be conducted. Proposers must be educational institutions but may include collaboration with federal laboratories, industry and nonprofit organizations to create transdisciplinary research.
