Slide 4 - Funding Opportunity Overview (1) Funding Opportunity Title: Manufacturing Extension Partnership (MEP) Centers for South Dakota and Kentucky Funding Opportunity Description: NIST invites proposals from eligible proposers for funding two (2) separate MEP centers to provide manufacturing extension services to primarily small- and medium-sized manufacturers in two separate locations, South Dakota and/or Kentucky. The objective of an MEP center is to provide manufacturing extension services that enhance productivity, innovative capacity, and technological performance, and strengthen the global competitiveness of primarily small- and medium-sized U.S.-based manufacturing firms in its service region. 4
Slide 5 - Next Generation MEP Strategy Increasing manufacturers’ capacity for innovation resulting in profitable sales growth is the overarching strategy for the MEP. The approach is to provide a framework for manufacturers that: Reduces bottom line expenses through lean, quality, & other programs targeting plant efficiencies – which frees up capacity for business growth. Adds to top line sales through business growth services focused on the development of new sales, new markets, and new products. Next Generation Strategies (NGS) – 5 key areas: Continuous Improvement Technology Acceleration Supply Chain Sustainability Workforce 5
Slide 6 - MEP Program Evolution Pre-Minimally Acceptable Impact Metrics Minimally Acceptable Impact Metrics Center Operations Reporting and Evaluation 6
Slide 7 - FY 2012 Focus: Making the MEP Innovation System a Reality • Make the technology acceleration framework a reality • Engage at the CEO level to transform Firms • Partner with community leaders in regional innovation initiatives to encourage new business models/services/products, and to commercialize technology 7
Slide 8 - 8 Developing an Innovation Plan that will then be translated into your Center’s future Annual Operating Plans Integrating Services that Address Next Generation Strategies into Your Innovation Plan Developing Sales and Executive Level Coaching Capabilities within your Center to Reach Decision Makers within Manufacturing Firms Developing Transformation Plans for your Manufacturing Clients How to move a company from point “A” to “B” resulting in new business opportunities, for example: Opening new domestic or international markets Managing ownership changes Adopting environmentally sustainable practices What does this mean for your center?
Slide 9 - Strategic Plan 1-Year Operating Plan Innovation Plan Innovation Plan is a hybrid of your strategic & operating plans Focused on the transition to an innovation practice in your center Temporary plan to encourage the transition to innovation services 9 How the Plans Fit Together
Slide 10 - Five Components of the Center Innovation Plan 10
Slide 11 - MEP Innovation Approach Innovation Engineering Leadership Institute (IELI): www.nist.gov/mep/innovation.cfm Innovation Engineering Management System accelerates a company’s continuous flow of innovations - big and small to address your Very Important Problems & Opportunities. Major innovation projects impact sales and profits. Minor projects help transform the culture. Itʼs a four-stage process of Define, Discover, Develop and Deliver. It integrates painlessly with classic project management systems such as Compression Planning, Stage-Gate, Design for 6 Sigma or Hoshin Planning. 11

Full Review of Eligible, Complete, and Responsive Proposals Proposals that are determined to be eligible, complete, and responsive will proceed for full reviews in accordance with the review and selection processes below: Evaluation/Review and Ranking. NIST will appoint an evaluation panel, consisting of at least three technically qualified reviewers, to conduct independent and objective reviews and evaluations of each proposal based on the evaluation criteria (see Section V.1. of the FFO) and assign a numeric score for each proposal. If more than one non-Federal employee reviewer is used on the panel, the panel member reviewers may discuss the proposals with each other, but scores will be determined on an individual basis, not as a consensus. Based on the average of the panel member reviewers’ scores, a rank order will be prepared and provided to the Selecting Official for further consideration. 26
Slide 27 - Review and Selection Process Site Visits Site visits may be required to make full evaluation of a proposal that has been determined to be a finalist. If site visits are deemed necessary, all finalists will receive site visits conducted by the same evaluation panel reviewers referenced in the preceding paragraph.
