NIST MEP Disaster Assessment Program
Active
National Institute of Standards and Technology
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is inviting applications from current recipients of Manufacturing Extension Partnership Center cooperative agreements (MEP Centers) for the NIST MEP Disaster Assessment Program. This program aims to perform assessments of small- and medium-sized manufacturers (SMMs) in areas subject to a FEMA Disaster Declaration. The assessments will identify the impact of the disaster on the operations of the SMMs. MEP Centers receiving funding through this program will also assist impacted SMMs in accessing Federal, State, and local resources for business recovery efforts. They will also help in the development of a risk mitigation plan for future disasters. The results of the project, including disaster preparedness lessons learned and SMMs best practices, will be shared with other SMMs, NIST, and the MEP National NetworkTM to aid in future disaster resilience planning efforts. Applications for funding must be submitted to NIST within 60 calendar days following the declaration of a Major or an Emergency Disaster Declaration by FEMA for all or a portion of an impacted State or Puerto Rico. NIST expects to complete the review, selection of successful applicants, and award processing within 90 calendar days of application receipt. Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis based on the date of the subject FEMA Disaster Declaration, subject to the publication of a superseding NOFO.
