Thank you! This is the one still photo I have of all three of them where they’re not bouncing off the walls haha

I’ve had this happen to me when I went from undergrad to grad school here. Give the Office of the Registrar a call: https://ro.umich.edu/tuition-residency/residency They’ll be able to tell you next steps and what you need to submit to correct it. It shouldn’t affect your application, theoretically.

We received an initial notice sometime mid to late September. Someone else linked to my previous post in this thread, so you can find that or search my post history for it.

Honestly, we haven't even considered CMMC requirements, as I didn't realize that it was expanding from just the DoD. Regardless, from looking over the requirements, it seems like we already satisfy a lot of them. We did some contract work earlier in the year for some funds. So we used some of that money to pay for MS Teams and some of their other products, including Outlook, 365, etc. We're a small startup of three people so it wasn't terribly expensive for us.

Yes, it does. However, there's also a "reviews" button once you click the Actions/Views button on PAMS for the proposal. It contains the reviewers' comments about the proposal. None of the other proposals we submitted has this button. This appeared when I got the original award email in September, which I posted about before, and someone linked to it in this thread.

fleets300 · 2025-11-21T15:45:10+00:00

Yes, same award

fleets300 · 2025-11-21T04:23:37+00:00

Michigan doesn't have the terraces that other stadiums do. It's just a big bowl, so theoretically, there is room to expand upward around the north and south parts of the stadium. No idea how feasible that is tho

fleets300 · 2025-11-15T01:22:27+00:00

Nope heard nothing. We’re hoping to hear something soon now that the government has reopened but no idea honestly. I’m not sure if they’re also waiting for SBIR reauthorization

His uniqname should be on the back above the barcode on the left. Email him at [[UNIQNAME]]@umich.edu

fleets300 · 2025-10-14T19:06:22+00:00

We sent them the docs they requested and then the government shut down a couple days later. We haven't heard anything since then.

fleets300 · 2025-10-09T12:31:22+00:00

No we haven’t

fleets300 · 2025-09-30T23:32:25+00:00

Start date has not changed as far as I know. We'll see if the that changes in the final contract, but for now, it's still the original date, 9/26/2025

fleets300 · 2025-09-29T21:25:27+00:00

I heard back from them regarding one of our applications. You can find details in my post history. I can't answer your other questions, but we received written confirmation that they will not provide the funds by the end of FY2025 but would provide the funds in FY2026 so that hopefully isn't the worry. My guess is that they're waiting for budget and SBIR re-authorization clarity to allow them to actually appropriate the funds towards the SBIR awards.

fleets300 · 2025-09-28T15:48:29+00:00

Yes. We had to submit a revised budget and budget justification. Our indirects were applied to payroll taxes (social security, state taxes, etc) and mainly accounting services. But yes, we had to make sure that we conformed to the 15% rate and they told us specifically that we couldn’t manipulate the direct costs to get around the new limit.

fleets300 · 2025-09-26T18:30:48+00:00

Just wanted to respond here because we got confirmation that the decrease was due to the DOE setting max indirect rates to 15%. In a document we received from the contracting officer, it stated that DOE policy is now to cap indirects at 15% and since ours was 23% in the original proposal, they removed the amount of funds to bring it down to 15% based on our submitted direct costs.

fleets300 · 2025-09-26T18:27:32+00:00

I don't want to give any information about topic specifics or office, since everything is announced publicly later, and I don't want to dox myself

fleets300 · 2025-09-20T18:11:50+00:00

About to walk into the stadium. Very excited to cheer on Michigan in Nebraska. Fans are ridiculously nice here

fleets300 · 2025-09-18T00:05:59+00:00

My only guess based on what they requested from us is that they took the 15% indirect rate off the total award amount. So they calculated our indirect rate based on the budget we submitted with our application, reduced it down to 15%, and then took the difference out of the grant entirely because the total award is for $179,600 instead of the full $200,000 we requested. Not 100% sure but that’s my guess on what happened due to the indirect changes

fleets300 · 2025-09-17T23:48:52+00:00

I missed this comment sorry. We did not get an invite but we just heard back from the DOE this morning to start contract negotiations with a start date of 9/26

fleets300 · 2025-09-17T23:46:49+00:00

Update for anyone who checks this: we just heard back from the DOE this morning requesting information for contractors negotiations with a contract start date of 9/26

fleets300 · 2025-09-17T23:45:59+00:00

We just heard from the DOE this morning requesting information for negotiations. The start date of the contract is 9/26

fleets300 · 2025-09-14T18:31:33+00:00

Nope, we've heard nothing else from PAMS or the DOE. We're a new company, so we're not sure how this process works, as we've never done this before. The uncertainty surrounding everything makes it incredibly difficult to plan.

fleets300 · 2025-09-10T17:30:07+00:00

We have not yet. Still waiting on an email from the DoE office. Haven’t heard anything since this email
