Periodically over the 5-year period, proposal call announcements (CALLS) may be issued in the FedBizOps/EPS and GRANTS.GOV/FIND to request proposals for specific research efforts under technical topic areas.

These subsequent CALLS will contain specific descriptions of the research effort to be addressed, anticipated period of performance, information peculiar to the specific research technical topic area, and the expected dollar range for proposals received under the CALL.
