To establish an expansion awards pilot program as a part of the Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership, and for other purposes.

This bill requires the National Institute of Standards and Technology to establish a pilot program of expansion awards as part of the Hollings Manufacturing Extension Partnership (a public-private partnership serving small and medium-sized manufacturers and operating out of centers located in each state). Expansion awards made under the pilot program to these centers shall be used for purposes that include (1) improving the resiliency of domestic supply chains and mitigating vulnerabilities to cyberattacks, and (2) expanding advanced technology services to small and medium-sized manufacturers.
