Then find your goals...
STEP 2: Set concrete goals, tasks, dates and numbers you can track
Featuring 990 new and updated case-based questions, organized into seven core areas of process design, this Self-Assessment will help you identify areas in which Government Funding and Manufacturing Readiness Level improvements can be made.
Examples; 10 of the 990 standard requirements:
- How do government-funded technology transfer programs, such as the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Industry-University Cooperative Research Centers (IUCRC) program, foster collaboration between academia, industry, and government to accelerate the development and deployment of new manufacturing technologies, and what are the resulting benefits for industry partners in terms of advancing their manufacturing readiness levels?
- What metrics or benchmarks do government-funded technology transfer programs, such as the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP), use to measure the effectiveness of their efforts in advancing the manufacturing readiness levels of industry partners, and how are these metrics used to inform program improvements and adjustments?
- How do government-funded projects that focus on achieving higher manufacturing readiness levels (MRLs) for sustainable technologies, such as renewable energy systems or energy-efficient manufacturing processes, contribute to the development of environmentally friendly supply chains, and what specific metrics or key performance indicators (KPIs) are used to measure the environmental impact of these projects?
- How do government-funded technology transfer programs, such as the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Engineering Research Centers (ERC) program, foster interdisciplinary research and collaboration between academia, industry, and government to advance manufacturing technologies, and what are the resulting benefits for industry partners in terms of advancing their manufacturing readiness levels?
- How do government funding programs, such as those offered by the Department of Defense (DoD) and the National Science Foundation (NSF), support the development of advanced sensors and Internet of Things (IoT) devices through Manufacturing Readiness Level (MRL) projects, and what specific incentives do these programs offer to manufacturers to encourage the development of these technologies?
- In what ways do government funding agencies engage with stakeholders, including industry associations, academia, civil society, or local communities, to ensure that manufacturing readiness level projects are responsive to diverse needs and perspectives, and how do they incorporate feedback and input from these stakeholders into their evaluation frameworks and decision-making processes?
- What role do government-funded initiatives, such as the US Department of Energy's Manufacturing Technology Program, play in supporting the development of sustainable supply chains by providing funding for manufacturing readiness level projects, and how do these initiatives align with broader national goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable development?
- How do government funding agencies strike a balance between providing financial support to advance the manufacturing readiness level of cutting-edge technologies, while ensuring that the development and production of these technologies do not compromise the security and integrity of critical infrastructure, such as defense systems, energy grids, or financial networks?
- In what ways do government-funded initiatives, such as the US Department of Agriculture's BioPreferred Program, support the development of sustainable supply chains by promoting the use of biobased products and biorenewable chemicals, and what benefits do these approaches offer in terms of reduced dependence on fossil fuels and improved environmental sustainability?
- In what ways do government-funded technology transfer programs, like the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs, support the development of innovative manufacturing technologies, and how do these efforts enhance the manufacturing readiness levels of industry partners?

Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a business challenge or meet a business objective is the most valuable role; In EVERY company, organization and department.
Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project within a business, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?'
This Toolkit empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Government Funding and Manufacturing Readiness Level investments work better.
This Government Funding and Manufacturing Readiness Level All-Inclusive Toolkit enables You to be that person.
