Additional Information of Eligibility:
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 and/or unfunded 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 and commercial organizations.

Thus, commercial organizations may participate in teams or consortia as subrecipients or contractors, as unfunded 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.

A proposed technical collaboration with NIST technical staff is subject to the procedures in Section VI.2.c.

of the Full Announcement/FFO document, and NIST’s costs should not be included in the application.

If approved, NIST’s technical collaboration would be as described within Section II.1.of the Full Announcement/FFO document.

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.

NIST will only consider one Pre-Application per applicant.
