Building upon its long track record of working with the private and public sectors to develop reliable and practical measurement and standards-oriented solutions, NIST has partnered with organizations from industry, academia, and civil society to form a research partnership that supports the development of science-based empirically-backed guidelines and standards for AI measurement that lays the foundation for global AI metrology.
The NIST AI Consortium empowers the collaborative establishment of a new measurement science that will enable the identification of proven, scalable, and interoperable techniques and metrics to promote the development and use of AI.
Through this research partnership, NIST seeks to: Establish a knowledge and data sharing space for AI stakeholders Engage in collaborative and interdisciplinary research and development through the performance a collaborative research plan Prioritize research and evaluation requirements and approaches that promote the development and use of AI.
Identify and recommend approaches to facilitate the cooperative development and transfer of technology and data between and among Consortium Members Identify mechanisms to streamline input from federal agencies on topics within their direct purviews Enable assessment and evaluation of test systems and prototypes to inform future AI measurement efforts To create a lasting approach for continued joint research and development, the work of the consortium will be open and transparent and provide a hub for interested parties.
Participation in the consortium is open to all interested organizations that can contribute their expertise, products, data, and/or models to the activities of the consortium. Selected participants will be required to enter into a consortium Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) with NIST.
At NIST’s discretion, entities which are not permitted to enter into CRADAs pursuant to law may be allowed to participate in the Consortium pursuant to separate non-CRADA agreement. Each prospective participant will be expected to work collaboratively with NIST staff and other project participants under the terms of the Consortium CRADA.

NIST is pausing all submissions under the CRDO Broad Agency Announcement (2025-NIST-CHIPS-CRDO-01) on September 15, 2026 for system upgrades — no white papers, no pre-negotiation packages, no investment fund applications until roughly November. Here is what the pause means for a $10M-minimum rolling BAA that runs through 2029, and how to use the dark window.
Read articleThe FY2026 MEP Center State Competition ran in two rounds: eight states worth $139.1 million, then fourteen more worth $232.4 million, both closing August 21, 2026. That's 43 percent of the national network recompeted in twelve months, under a 50 percent non-federal cost share, while the administration's own budget request proposed eliminating the program. Here's what the award tables reveal, why incumbents are genuinely at risk, and how to position for the FY2027 wave.
Read articleNIST's July 2026 MEP funding opportunity opens 14 state and territory centers — from California's $15.6M to Alaska's $706K — to new operators under cooperative agreements requiring a 50% nonfederal match. Applications are due August 21, 2026, with a July 28 webinar. Here is who can compete, how the match works, and why this recompete matters for every small manufacturer in those 14 states.
