About this title

Synopsis

Key hearing on how federal technology programs support U.S. innovation and industry.

This proceeding examines the Technology Administration’s FY 2000 budget request and the Fastener Quality Act amendments, with insights from government and industry witnesses.

The session outlines how the Department of Commerce uses agencies like NIST and NTIS to promote standards, measurement, and manufacturing strength. It also surveys recent priorities such as space commercialization, teacher-science programs, and efforts to reduce technical barriers to trade. The discussion highlights the impact of federal investment on private research, industrial competitiveness, and the adoption of new technologies.

How the Technology Administration allocates resources to metrics-driven programs and how those investments translate into practical outcomes for industry.
Roles of standards, measurements, and the manufacturing extension network in supporting U.S. exports and innovation.
Panel perspectives on fastener safety, quality assurance, and regulatory changes under the Fastener Quality Act.
Real-world testimony from industry and standards leaders about program results and future priorities.

Ideal for readers of policy, technology, manufacturing, and government programs who want a concise view of how federal support helps move ideas from lab to marketplace.
