The Department of Energy's Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technologies Office (AMMTO) Smart Manufacturing Funding Opportunity Announcement (DE-FOA-0003329) provides up to $33 million to fund high-impact applied research, development, and demonstration projects that use digitization, artificial intelligence, machine learning, and physics-informed models to improve the technical performance, efficiency, productivity, and competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing.
Areas of interest include AI- and ML-driven automation integrating hardware and software systems into manufacturing tooling and equipment, manufacturing asset management for system performance optimization (cost, quality, throughput), intelligent materials identification and sorting for circular economy outcomes, and digital twin platforms supporting clean energy manufacturing.
The FOA aligns with the DOE Industrial Decarbonization Roadmap and supports the broader Manufacturing USA Smart Manufacturing strategy.

The Air Force Research Laboratory Information Directorate's Geospatial Intelligence Processing and Exploitation (GeoPEX) Broad Agency Announcement (FA8750-21-S-7006) is an open, two-step BAA funding research, development, integration, testing, and evaluation of technologies that enhance geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) capabilities for national security missions. Core technical areas emphasize artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques for full-spectrum GEOINT, automated multi-source data production, cloud-based high-performance computing, photogrammetry, and rapid exploitation of imagery and sensor data. The BAA carries an estimated total ceiling of approximately $99.9 million, with individual awards from roughly $250,000 to $10 million over performance periods up to 36 months. White papers are accepted on a rolling basis and the announcement remains open and effective through September 30, 2026.
The DOE Genesis Mission is a $320+ million Department of Energy initiative that leverages artificial intelligence to advance U.S. energy dominance, strengthen national security, and accelerate scientific discovery. The funding portfolio supports four pillars: the American Science Cloud, which hosts and distributes AI models and AI-ready scientific data sets; the Transformational AI Models Consortium, which develops self-improving foundation AI models for scientific discovery; 14 projects in robotics, automated laboratories, and autonomous control of large-scale experiments that aim to transform laboratory environments using embodied AI, advanced automation, and robotics; and 37 foundational AI projects focused on organizing scientific data and developing rigorously tested AI models. The Mission is led by Under Secretary for Science and Innovation Dario Gil and runs across DOE's national laboratory complex.
On July 22, 2026, the Department of Energy opened its FY26 Genesis Mission SBIR/STTR round — roughly 40 Phase I awards across four topic areas (biotech, quantum, materials, and autonomous labs), a $147 million Phase II pool, and a September 10 pitch deadline. This is how small businesses get inside the $5 billion Genesis Mission. Here is what each topic funds, how the money and timeline work, and the concrete strategy to compete.
Read articleTitle III of the Defense Production Act lets the Pentagon hand non-dilutive capital to companies that expand domestic production of defense-critical materials and manufacturing — through a white-paper-first pathway run by the Air Force Research Laboratory (FA8650-19-S-5010) rather than a conventional grant competition. But the core DPA authorities sunset September 30, 2026 absent reauthorization, and the standing white-paper window has moved in and out of suspension. Here is how the Title III mechanism actually works, why it rewards companies that lead with a supply-chain vulnerability, and how to position before the authority cliff.
Read articleThe Labor Department's RESTART grants closed April 15, but the $81 million program is a map, not just a deadline. Up to 20 awards, $5.1M ceilings, and a priority list — AI infrastructure, nuclear, advanced manufacturing, domestic minerals — that signals the shape of the next workforce funding cycle. Here is how to read it and position for what comes next.
