Twelve federal agencies and one cross agency program spent roughly $2.7 billion in fiscal year 1987 in support of research and development in biotechnology, according to a report by the Congressional Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) that was released today. Federal support of biotechnology has increased every year since 1984.The National Institutes of Health contributed by far the largest share of federal support, approximately $2.3 billion, or 84%; the Department of Defense, $119 million, the National Science Foundation, $93.8 million; the U.S. Department of Agriculture, $84 million, and the Department of Energy $61.4 million, OTA reports.

Level Scale

The Human Readiness Levels (HRL) scale is a simple nine-level scale developed as an adjunct to complement and supplement the existing Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) scale widely used across government agencies and industry. A multi-agency working group consisting of nearly 30 members representing the broader human systems integration (HSI) community throughout the Department of Defense (DOD), Department of Energy (DOE), other federal agencies, industry, and academia was established in August 2019. The working group’s charter was to mature the HRL scale and evaluate its utility, reliability, and validity for implementation in the systems acquisition lifecycle. Toward that end, the working group examined applicability of the HRL scale for a range of scenarios. This panel will discuss outcomes from the working group’s activities regarding HRL scale structure and usage.
