Opportunity Information: Apply for BJA 2020 17033
The BJA FY 20 Innovative Prosecution Solutions for Combatting Violent Crime Training and Technical Assistance opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number BJA 2020 17033) is a discretionary grant from the U.S. Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA). It was created on April 1, 2020, with an original application deadline of May 18, 2020. BJA planned to make a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with a maximum funding amount (award ceiling) of $1,000,000. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity areas associated with the solicitation span law, justice, and legal services, along with information and statistics and training-related categories.
The core purpose of the solicitation is to select one national training and technical assistance (TTA) provider that can support agencies participating in BJA's Innovative Prosecution Solutions (IPS) site-based grant program. Rather than funding multiple local sites directly under this specific solicitation, the emphasis here is on building a centralized, nationwide source of support that can help IPS grantees implement their projects effectively, consistently, and at scale. The provider is expected to deliver a wide range of TTA services tailored to the needs of participating agencies, helping them translate grant-funded ideas into workable practices and operational improvements.
The IPS site-based program that this TTA effort supports is focused on modernizing state and local prosecutor offices and reducing caseload burdens. The modernization theme is not limited to basic process improvements; it is explicitly tied to developing and implementing new solutions to public safety problems, particularly violent crime. The program highlights the use of technology, intelligence, and data analytics as practical tools to strengthen prosecutor office operations, improve decision-making, and increase efficiency. In other words, the larger IPS strategy is to help prosecutor offices function more effectively by improving how they manage cases, use information, and deploy resources, with the end goal of helping communities reduce crime.
Eligible applicants for this TTA provider award are relatively broad and include public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status (other than higher education institutions), for-profit organizations that are not small businesses, and other applicant types as described in the solicitation's additional eligibility guidance. This eligibility structure signals that BJA was open to a range of capable national providers, including universities, research or policy organizations, technical assistance organizations, and specialized firms with demonstrated capacity to deliver training, implementation support, and operational guidance to justice agencies across jurisdictions.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as an implementation support grant designed to strengthen the impact of the IPS site-based awards. By funding one national provider to deliver consistent training and hands-on technical assistance, BJA aimed to help prosecutor offices modernize operations, reduce caseload strain, and adopt technology- and data-driven approaches that can contribute to more efficient prosecution practices and improved public safety outcomes.Apply for BJA 2020 17033
