For 26-OS2, is a formal agency partnership required at Phase I, or is a Letter of Intent with a Phase II engagement plan sufficient?
The topic mentions collaboration with state or local agencies is 'encouraged.' For Phase I specifically, is a formal letter of commitment or partnership agreement from a state/local agency required at proposal submission, or is a demonstrated plan for Phase II agency engagement sufficient?

Informal discussions and identifying specific potential partners are sufficient to meet the baseline requirements for Phase I. Demonstrating a higher level of partner commitment during Phase I would help establish a proposal’s overall readiness for Phase II.
