Opportunity Information: Apply for 2023 NIST MFGUSA WEAVE 01
The Manufacturing USA Workforce, Education and Vibrant Ecosystems (WEAVE) Public Service Awards is a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) discretionary funding opportunity that uses a cooperative agreement mechanism to support public service projects tied to advanced manufacturing. The overall purpose is to encourage high-impact efforts that strengthen vibrant and inclusive advanced manufacturing ecosystems, speed domestic production and adoption of technologies developed by the Manufacturing USA institutes, and expand equitable access to quality, well-paying jobs connected to those technologies. In practice, the opportunity is meant to push projects that connect technology transition, workforce and education pathways, and ecosystem-building activities so that institute-developed innovations translate more directly into U.S.-based manufacturing capacity and broader participation in the resulting economic benefits.
Eligibility is tightly restricted. Only organizations that are current Manufacturing USA institutes are allowed to apply, and they must still be institutes at the time of proposal submission and at the time of award (if one is made). The institutes explicitly listed as eligible are AFFOA, AIM Photonics, America Makes, ARM, BioFabUSA, BioMADE, CESMII, CyManII, EPIXC, IACMI, LIFT, MxD, NextFlex, NIIMBL, PowerAmerica, RAPID, and REMADE. No other entity types can submit an application. A key structural requirement is that proposals must be submitted by a partnership of two or more current Manufacturing USA institutes, meaning single-institute applications do not meet the basic eligibility rules. Another important limitation is that any single institute may serve as the lead applicant on only one submission, although it can participate on other submissions as a subrecipient or as an unfunded collaborator.
While non-institute organizations cannot apply directly, the opportunity still allows broad participation through institute-led teams. Members of the institutes, individuals, and outside organizations that are not themselves institutes are not eligible applicants under this notice of funding opportunity, but they can be included as part of an institute-led project team. This structure keeps the formal applicant pool limited to the Manufacturing USA network while still allowing institutes to bring in employers, training providers, community partners, universities, labor organizations, and other stakeholders as collaborators to carry out the proposed work.
Administratively, the opportunity is identified as "Manufacturing USA Workforce, Education and Vibrant Ecosystems (WEAVE) Public Service Awards" with funding opportunity number 2023 NIST MFGUSA WEAVE 01. It falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development activity category and is associated with CFDA number 11.619. The original closing date listed is 2023-10-02, and the notice was created on 2023-08-02. The award instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that NIST anticipates substantial involvement during the period of performance (for example, coordination, technical input, or collaborative oversight) compared with a standard grant. The source information provided does not specify an award ceiling or the expected number of awards.Apply for 2023 NIST MFGUSA WEAVE 01
