Revised the Expected Date for EERE Selection Notifications to April 201 7. Revised the Expected Timeframe for Award Negotiations to April 2017 – May 201 7. The Industrial Assessment Center (IAC) program is a resource conservation and workforce development initiative of the Advanced Manufacturing Office (AMO) based in the engineering departments of colleges and universities nationwide.
IACs conduct assessments and provide site-specific recommendations to small manufacturers on opportunities to improve productivity, reduce waste, and save energy.
The program also provides engineering students with invaluable hands-on experience in energy engineering and energy management.
The IACs were formerly known as Energy Analysis and Diagnostic Centers and were created by the Department of Commerce in 1976 in response to the oil embargo and rising energy costs.
Historically, the centers have focused on helping small and medium-sized manufacturing facilities cut back on unnecessary costs from inefficient energy use.
The IACs were moved to the Department of Energy just after the DOE was formed in 1978 and later expanded the scope of the assessments to include evaluations of ineffective production procedures, excess waste production, and other production-related problems.
Currently the IAC program is administered through the Advanced Manufacturing Office under the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy at the Department of Energy.
Additional information on the IAC program can be found at the following link:
https://iac.university/ The IAC Technical Field Manager plays a critical role in the IAC program.
The Technical Field Manager is the liaison between the AMO Program Manager and the individual Centers, provides technical assistance and outreach to individual centers, and is the principle mechanism for ensuring the 28 individual IACs and their associated satellite centers perform at the highest possible level and that their activities support the achievement of AMO goals.
