Agency-specific Content for the Notice of Funding Opportunity
Manufacturing Training Academies Grant Program
NOFO ID: 2361-4221
For information about grants please visit:
https://dceo.illinois.gov/dceo-grants.html
A. Program Description
Notice of Funding Opportunity Intent
The Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (the “Department” or “DCEO”) is issuing
this Notice of Funding Opportunity (“NOFO”) to provide capital grants to establish advanced workforce
training facilities at downstate community colleges.
Program Description
The Manufacturing Training Academies Grant Program will provide capital grants to establish advanced
workforce training facilities at downstate Illinois community colleges (defined as community college
districts located outside Cook and the collar counties). The workforce training to be subsequently
provided will foster development in manufacturing operations aligned with priority industries identified in
the Illinois Economic Growth Plan.1 Priority industries relevant to this opportunity include:
• Life Sciences;
• Quantum Computing, AI, and Microelectronics;
• Clean Energy Production and Manufacturing;
• Advanced Manufacturing; and
• Next Generation Agriculture, Ag Tech and Food Processing.
These capital grants may fund the construction of facilities and purchases of durable equipment needed
to establish manufacturing training academies. Specialized manufacturing training academies will foster
development of priority industries, greater opportunities in high-wage careers, increased specialization,
and increased industry support and collaboration in manufacturing workforce training.
The Department intends to award two tiers of grants. Tier 1 awards will be up to $3 million, while Tier 2
awards will be up to $6 million. The opportunity to apply for Tier 1 grants is intended to extend this grant
opportunity to smaller community college districts that do not have the resources or enrollment to support
a larger project. Applicants may choose to be considered for both Tier 1 and Tier 2 awards by submitting
separate applications for each. However, no applicants will receive multiple awards.
The Department anticipates awarding two Tier 1 awards and one Tier 2 award in both the “Central” and
“Southern” regions as shown in Table 1 below. Community colleges that have already received
manufacturing training academy grants (see Program History below) are excluded from this grant
opportunity.

NOFO ID: 2361-4221
Successful grantees will develop manufacturing workforce training programs that are not already broadly
available at community colleges in their region, that would attract students from across the region to
participate in manufacturing training, and that meet the workforce needs of priority manufacturing sectors
in the regional economy. Grantees are encouraged to consider training programs that may fall outside of
traditional community college curriculum, including shorter-duration certification programs and customized
job training directed towards their region’s manufacturers’ current and evolving workforce needs. Training
should be employer-centric; employing flexible approaches such as open-entry / open-exit, and learn-
and-earn training such as apprenticeships and incumbent worker training.
Successful grantees will also demonstrate that anticipated workforce training programming is aligned with
the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) 2024-2028 Workforce Development Strategic
Plan2 and any applicable regional/local WIOA plans.3 Targeted industries and occupational skills training
should be tied to data in the WIOA Regional Plans and primary data should be developed locally by
employer groups such as sector partnerships (including Talent Pipeline Management employer
collaboratives) where they exist, economic development councils / corporations and chambers of
commerce.

NOFO ID: 2361-4221
Applications will be graded using the Merit Review Process and scored on the criteria specified in
Section E.1. The Department will designate an Evaluation Committee to grade each application
received for this funding opportunity. The final score of each Committee member will be
calculated and an average of all scores will be the final applicant score. Grants will be awarded to
the highest-scoring Tier 2 application and the two highest-scoring Tier 1 applications in both the
Central and Southern regions as shown in Table 1, presuming that applicants earn a merit review
score of 75 or higher.
The Department will evaluate Tier 2 applications first. Applicants offered Tier 2 awards will not be
considered for Tier 1 awards.
Any remaining funds will be awarded according to merit review score, though the Department
may elevate a lower-scoring project from an area of great need or to ensure that both the Central
and Southern regions receive a reasonable share of overall funding.
The Merit Based Review process is subject to appeal per
https://dceo.illinois.gov/aboutdceo/grantopportunities/meritappreview.html. However,
competitive grant appeals are limited to the evaluation process. Evaluation scores may not be
protested. Only the evaluation process is subject to appeal. The appeal must be submitted
through the merit review appeal request form
(https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/6444bed39ef140c589f002f53b9bc092) within 14 calendar
days after the date that the grant award notice has been published.
3. Anticipated Announcement and State Award Dates, if applicable.
After the application period is closed, the Department will conduct a merit based review of eligible
applications. Successful applicants will receive a Notice of State Award (NOSA) to initiate the
grant agreement phase. During this phase, you will be contacted by a grant manager to develop a
grant agreement, which can be a months long process depending on complexity, cooperation,
and conformity with all applicable federal and state laws.
The Department reserves the right to issue a reduced award, or not to issue any award.
F. Award Administration Information
1. State Award Notices.
The Notice of State Award (NOSA) will specify the funding terms and specific conditions resulting
from the pre-award risk assessments and the merit based review process. The NOSA must be
accepted in the GATA Portal by an authorized representative of the grantee organization. The
NOSA is not an authorization to begin performance or incur costs.
2. Administrative and National Policy Requirements.
Subrecipients and Subcontractors: Agreement(s) and budget(s) with subrecipients and
subcontractors must be pre-approved by and on file with DCEO. Agreements can be submitted
to DCEO when available. Subcontractors and subrecipients are subject to all applicable
provisions of the Agreement(s) executed between DCEO and the grantee. The successful
applicant shall retain sole responsibility for the performance of its subrecipient(s) and/or
subcontractor(s).
Grant Uniform Requirements: The Grant Accountability and Transparency Act (30 ILCS 708/1
et seq.) (and its related administrative rules, 44 Ill. Admin. Code Part 7000), was enacted to
increase the accountability and transparency in the use of grant funds from whatever source and
to reduce administrative burdens on both State agencies and grantees by adopting federal
8

NOFO ID: 2361-4221
guidance and regulations applicable to those grant funds; specifically, the Uniform Administrative
Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (2 CFR 200).
Procurement: Grantees will be required to adhere to methods of procurement per the
Procurement Standards (2 CFR 200.317 – 2 CFR 200.327).
Business Enterprise Program: For grant awards of $250,000 or more, grantees will be
required to comply with the Business Enterprise Program for Minorities, Females, and Persons
with Disabilities Act (30 ILCS 575/0.01 et seq.), which establishes a goal for contracting with
businesses that have been certified as owned and controlled by persons who are minority, female
or who have disabilities. The Department will work with the grantees to ensure compliance prior
to the establishment of the grant agreement as well as through the life of the grant.
Environmental Review Requirements: Capital grants will be reviewed to determine
environmental review requirements. Based on the scope of the project, the grantees may be
required to complete additional environmental approvals before a grant agreement can be
initiated.
Illinois Works Jobs Program Act (30 ILCS 559/20-1 et seq.): For grants with an estimated total
project cost of $500,000 or more, the grantee will be required to comply with the Illinois Works
Apprenticeship Initiative (30 ILCS 559/20-20 to 20-25) and all applicable administrative rules. The
“estimated total project cost” is a good faith approximation of the costs of an entire project being
paid for in whole or in part by appropriated capital funds to construct a public work. The goal of
the Illinois Apprenticeship Initiative is that apprentices will perform either 10% of the total labor
hours actually worked in each prevailing wage classification or 10% of the estimated labor hours
in each prevailing wage classification, whichever is less. Grantees will be permitted to seek from
the Department a waiver or reduction of this goal in certain circumstances pursuant to 30 ILCS
559/20-20(b). The grantee must ensure compliance for the life of the entire project, including
during the term of the grant and after the term ends, if applicable, and will be required to report on
and certify its compliance.
Prevailing Wage Act (820 ILCS 130/0.01 et seq.): Applicants that are awarded grants shall
comply with all requirements of the Prevailing Wage Act, including but not limited to, inserting into
all contracts for construction a stipulation to the effect that not less than the prevailing rate of
wages as applicable to the project shall be paid to all laborers, workers, and mechanics
performing work under the award and requiring all bonds of contractors to include a provision as
will guarantee the faithful performance of such prevailing wage clause as provided by
contract. Grantees will be required to report on Prevailing Wage Act compliance on a monthly
basis.
Employment of Illinois Workers on Public Works Act (30 ILCS 570/0.01 et seq.): All grantees
will be required to comply with the Employment of Illinois Workers on Public Works Act (30 ILCS
570/0.01 et seq.) (the “Act”), which provides that whenever there is a period of excessive
unemployment in Illinois (as defined by the Act), if the Grantee is using Grant Funds for (1)
constructing or building any public works, or (2) performing the clean-up and on-site disposal of
hazardous waste for the State of Illinois or any political subdivision of the State, then the Grantee
shall employ at least 90% Illinois laborers on such project. Illinois laborers refers to any person
who has resided in Illinois for at least 30 days and intends to become or remain an Illinois
resident. Grantees may receive an exception from this requirement by submitting a request and
supporting documents certifying that Illinois laborers are either not available, or are incapable of
performing the particular type of work involved. The certification must: (a) be submitted to the
grant manager within the first quarter of the Award Term; (b) provide sufficient support that
demonstrates the exception is met; (c) be signed by an authorized signatory of the Grantee; and
(d) be approved by DCEO in consultation with the Illinois Department of Labor. In addition, every
contractor on a public works project or improvement or hazardous waste clean-up and on-site
disposal project in this State may place on such work no more than 3 (or 6 in the case of a
