I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of Program: The purpose of
this program is to stimulate
technological innovation in the private
sector, strengthen the role of small
business in meeting Federal research or
research and development (R/R&D)
needs, increase the commercial
application of the U.S. Department of
Education (Department) supported
research results, and improve the return
on investment from federally funded
research for economic and social
benefits to the Nation.
Note: This program is in concert with
NIDRR’s Final Long-Range Plan for FY 2005–
2009 (Plan).
The Plan, which was published in the
Federal Register on February 15, 2006
(71 FR 8166), can be accessed on the
Internet at the following site: https://
www.ed.gov/about/offices/lists/osers/
nidrr/policy.html.
Through the implementation of the
Plan, NIDRR seeks to: (1) Improve the
quality and utility of disability and
rehabilitation research; (2) foster an
exchange of expertise, information, and
training to facilitate the advancement of
knowledge and understanding of the
unique needs of individuals with
disabilities from traditionally
underserved populations; (3) determine
best strategies and programs to improve
rehabilitation outcomes for individuals
with disabilities from underserved
populations; (4) identify research gaps;
(5) identify mechanisms of integrating
research and practice; and (6)
disseminate findings.
NIDRR Supports ManufacturingRelated Innovation (Executive Order
13329):
Executive Order 13329 states that
continued technological innovation is
critical to a strong manufacturing sector
in the United States economy and
ensures that Federal agencies assist the
private sector in its manufacturing
innovation efforts. The Department’s
SBIR program encourages innovative
research and development (R&D)
projects that are manufacturing-related,
as defined by Executive Order 13329.
Manufacturing-related R&D
encompasses improvements in existing
methods or processes, or wholly new
processes, machines, or systems. The
projects supported under the
Department’s SBIR program encompass
a range of manufacturing-related R&D,
including projects leading to the
manufacture of such items as artificial
intelligence or information technology
devices, software, and systems. For
