Opportunity Information: Apply for DHS 23 GPD 057 00 01
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2023 Intercity Bus Security Grant Program (IBSGP) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) through FEMA. It is part of DHS/FEMA's broader set of transportation infrastructure security grant programs designed to reduce vulnerabilities in the nation's surface transportation systems. The central purpose of IBSGP is to provide funding directly to intercity bus companies so they can strengthen security measures that help protect critical transportation infrastructure and the traveling public from acts of terrorism. In other words, the program is aimed at practical, company-level improvements that reduce risk and improve readiness in the intercity bus environment.
IBSGP sits within a larger national framework for protecting critical infrastructure, reflecting Congressional authorization and Administration implementation of security measures focused on terrorism-related risks. FEMA ties this grant program to the Department's homeland security mission set, specifically aligning IBSGP with the goal of strengthening national preparedness and resilience as identified in the DHS Quadrennial Homeland Security Review. The program is also presented as consistent with the 2022-2026 FEMA Strategic Plan, which emphasizes preparing for a wider range of increasingly complex threats and disasters, supporting diverse communities, and meeting rising expectations of the emergency management field. FEMA also signals that it wants stakeholders and partners to align with these priorities to help build a more resilient nation overall.
From a logistics and applicant standpoint, IBSGP is offered as a grant (the funding instrument type) under a discretionary opportunity category. The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number DHS 23 GPD 057 00 01 and is associated with CFDA (now commonly referenced as Assistance Listing) 97.057. The eligible applicant categories listed include for-profit organizations other than small businesses, plus additional eligible applicants described under an "Others" category (implying there are specific eligibility details and definitions in the full notice that applicants would need to review carefully). The awarding agency is DHS/FEMA.
For this FY 2023 cycle, the opportunity was created on February 27, 2023, and originally closed on May 18, 2023. The program lists an award ceiling of $2,000,000, meaning individual awards could be funded up to that maximum amount depending on the specifics of the project and the program's funding decisions. FEMA anticipated making around 100 awards, indicating the program was structured to support a relatively broad set of intercity bus security projects across multiple recipients rather than concentrating funds into only a handful of large awards.
Overall, IBSGP is best understood as targeted homeland security funding for the intercity bus sector, intended to improve prevention, protection, and preparedness capabilities tied to terrorism risk. It is framed not only as a transportation security investment, but also as part of FEMA's wider resilience and preparedness strategy for safeguarding critical systems and the people who rely on them.Apply for DHS 23 GPD 057 00 01
