The COVID-19 Recovery Program (CRP) is a coordinated and collaborative initiative by a regional network of partners to assist companies move forward during the pandemic. The no-cost program includes an initial business assessment and financial analysis, followed quickly by a thoughtful tactical action plan and
debrief to provide a business the custom support they need. All work is completed via virtual meetings with a company’s management team. This initial assessment and planning work is completed at no charge with funding authorized by the CARES Act via the National Institute of Standards and Technology Manufacturing Extension Partnership (NIST MEP). Additional fund phases may support the project implementation needs recommended in tactical action plan.
An assessment is the place to start, whether your company is surviving, recovering, or thriving. Begin by contacting your local economic development partner or CRP Program Manager, Susan Hileman at shileman@nwirc.org.
