While the proposal described excellent activities which further the mission, goals-objectives-activities were not clearly defined. The proposal describes high numbers of people engaged both through visits and through digital means. Excellent economic impact analysis. Few concerns about sustainability in terms of management. Good evaluation methods described; I had a hard time understanding the drastic budget differences and more explanation would have been helpful. Accessibility score Due to date of self evaluation. | |

it would have been helpful to have a breakout of your goals and objectives rather than integrating them into your timeline. | |

It is clear the Frost Science Museum is enjoying tremendous success with audiences...however the partners, exhibitions, and programs could be better described. Much of what is written is an outline of concepts versus specific plans. Collections management appears to not have been a priority. The revenue other category explodes by year three without clear explanation, as do revenues from private sources. The very significant admissions revenue appears to correlate with attendance, which is helpful. I recommend a new accessibility review ASAP. |

The reviewer questions the applicant's financial and organizational stability after their much publicized financial issues. The application failed to adequately address the consequences which have arisen as a result of those issues (i.e. no local government funding pledge) and how the applicant plans to address them. The reviewer needed more budget details to address some issues in the submitted budget. (i.e. budget fluctuations in all categories) It is important that applicants submit letters of support from their stakeholders, partners, and/or constituents to show outside commitment for their work. The reviewer would have liked more information on the organization's ongoing efforts to rebuild the local community's trust. |
