MEP Center State Competition Teaming Partner Submissions

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released a Notice of Funding Opportunity for 14 Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) centers to improve U.S. industrial competitiveness by helping small and medium-sized manufacturers adopt advanced manufacturing technologies. The funding will establish MEP centers in Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, California, Georgia, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Missouri, Montana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Utah, and Vermont.

While eligibility for the program listed in this NOFO is open to a United States-based non-profit institution, an institution of higher education, or a State, United States territory, local, or tribal government, or a consortium thereof, NIST MEP facilitates cooperation among private-sector industry partners, government agencies, academic institutions, economic development organizations, and other manufacturing ecosystem stakeholders to demonstrate, deploy, and adopt advanced manufacturing technologies.

Below is a public list of teaming partners seeking to connect with potential applicants or other entities. This list can be downloaded with the button below the table and will continue to be updated as new submissions are received.

Disclaimer: By enabling this list, MEP is not endorsing, sponsoring, or otherwise evaluating the qualifications of the entities that are self-identifying for placement on the list. MEP will not pay any entity for the development or provision of any information, nor will it give any preference to such entity that does so. Participation in the list is voluntary and does not bear any relation to, substitute, or replace the application requirements described in any MEP Notice of Funding Opportunity.
