New Commercialization Facility Application
SUMMARY OF CHANGES TO APPLICATION:
- Commercialization New Facility applications are now being accepted.
- Applicants may now apply for up to five (5) new facilities from their institution at once.
Facilities may apply to join the TEAMER Facility Network at any time. Please contact the TEAMER Network Director for more information if your facility would like to join the Network.
You must fill out a separate New Facility application if you are applying to provide other varieties of technical support. You can find the standard New Facility Application here.

Upon review, the TEAMER Technical Board will make a recommendation of one of the following:

- Accept, with limitations. Only some of the proposed capabilities will be accepted to be included in future RFTS opportunities.
- Follow-up required. The Technical Board may request additional information or evidence from the facility in order to qualify for acceptance.
- Decline, upgrades required. Facility does not qualify at this time but with certain upgrades or experience the facility may qualify in the future.
- Decline. Facility will not qualify under any circumstance to participate.
Once a decision has been made, the TEAMER Network Director will work with the facility to finalize its role in the TEAMER Facility Network.
All facilities in the TEAMER Facility Network will be reviewed annually. Those out of compliance may be removed from the Network or required to meet compliance before continuing their participation.
If a facility is conditionally approved as a TEAMER open water facility and starts to incur costs for site modifications, then elects not to fulfill all requirements for final approval, TEAMER is not liable for any costs incurred by the facility.
