in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Director can hire the National Research Council for advice and studies. These can cover U.S. competitiveness in manufacturing and new technology. They can also study how to spread new technology and remove barriers to using it.

The Director may periodically contract with the National Research Council for advice and studies to help the Institute serve U.S. industry and science. These studies may cover: (1) How competitive the United States is in key manufacturing and emerging-technology areas, and what research activities would boost that competitiveness. (2) What the Institute could do, together with industry and the states, to help spread and transfer new manufacturing and quality-assurance technologies. (3) What's likely blocking the U.S. workforce from widely using advanced manufacturing technology — including what training or other steps could raise the share of U.S. manufacturing jobs based within the country's own borders.
