Eligible applicants are any U.S. organization, excluding commercial organizations and federal entities, located within the United States, such as non-profit organizations, accredited institutions of higher education, and state, tribal, and local governments. An eligible organization may work individually or include proposed subrecipients, contractors or other collaborators in a project application, effectively forming a team or consortium. In a team or consortium, eligible subrecipients are the same types of organizations eligible to be applicants. In addition, commercial organizations may participate in teams or consortia as contractors, or in unfunded roles such as informal collaborators or as third parties that help to accelerate project results or help move them into routine or commercial use. Federal entities may participate in teams or consortia as contractors, informal collaborators, or in other roles allowed by law, consistent with each entity’s authorities, policies, and procedures. An applicant may not submit more than one application. The NIST Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership, and its National Innovation Marketplace program, may be a useful resource for connecting applicants with potential subrecipients, contractors or other collaborators.
