RAPid Update from ORSP

NSF Systems and Services Currently Unavailable

A power failure in the NSF Data Center Thursday evening caused all servers to shut down. This means that NSF IT Systems are unavailable to NSF staff and our research community of applicants and awardees.

Here is what you should know:

All systems and websites are down, including Research.gov, NSF.gov, and FastLane and the NSF Help Desk is currently closed.

We realize this impacts your work and deadlines; NSF will communicate next steps as soon as possible. We do not anticipate restoration of services before 3:00pm EST Friday.

For questions please contact your department research administrator or the ORSP Government Sponsors Team Project Representative you are working with on your project.
