Opportunity Information: Apply for MAP 2017
The OIA Maintenance Assistance Program (MAP 2017) is a discretionary grant opportunity offered by the U.S. Department of the Interior under CFDA 15.875. The program is aimed at helping the seven U.S. insular areas strengthen how they take care of public infrastructure over the long term. Rather than focusing on building brand-new facilities, MAP funding is centered on the less visible but essential work of creating, improving, and embedding consistent maintenance practices so that existing infrastructure stays reliable, safe, and functional. A key theme of the program is institutionalization, meaning the grant is meant to help jurisdictions move beyond one-time fixes and instead adopt maintenance systems and routines that become part of normal government operations.
The funding can be used to support efforts that develop and improve infrastructure maintenance practices, including activities that help establish maintenance programs, procedures, and capacity that can be sustained after the grant ends. In practical terms, this kind of support often aligns with building maintenance planning and management approaches, strengthening maintenance operations, and improving how maintenance work is prioritized, scheduled, tracked, and funded. The intent is to reduce deferred maintenance and prevent infrastructure from deteriorating due to inconsistent upkeep, which is a common and costly challenge in remote and resource-constrained environments.
MAP 2017 is structured as a grant, with an award ceiling of $100,000 per award. The opportunity anticipated making around 10 awards, suggesting a competitive process with multiple recipients rather than a single large project award. The original opportunity posting date was October 6, 2016, and the original closing date for applications was March 1, 2017. The eligible applicant category is listed as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement, which typically means applicants should review the specific eligibility language in the official notice to confirm which types of insular-area governments, entities, or partner organizations qualify.
Overall, this program is designed to help insular jurisdictions strengthen the day-to-day and year-to-year discipline of maintaining critical infrastructure by supporting improvements that can be adopted as standard practice. By focusing on sustainable maintenance systems and capacity, MAP seeks to protect prior infrastructure investments, improve service reliability, and reduce the long-term costs that come from letting maintenance slip into a cycle of emergency repairs and major rehabilitation.Apply for MAP 2017
