Abstract:
The Bayh-Dole Act (35 USC 18) and its implementing regulations (37 CFR 401) allow for recipients of federal research funding (Contractors) to retain ownership of inventions developed under federal funding agreements. In exchange, the government retains certain rights to the invention, including a world-wide right to use by or on behalf of the U.S. government. The law also requires the Contractor to obtain permission for certain actions and fulfill reporting requirements. One such requirement under the Bayh-Dole Act is that Contractors (as defined in the statute and regulations) shall not grant “the exclusive right to use or sell any subject invention in the United States unless such person agrees that any products embodying the subject invention or produced through the use of the subject invention will be manufactured substantially in the United States.” However, the law allows an agency to waive this requirement if a Contractor has shown that “reasonable but unsuccessful efforts have been made to grant licenses on similar terms to potential licensees that would be likely to manufacture substantially in the United States or that under the circumstances domestic manufacturing is not commercially feasible.” Pursuant to Executive Order 14104, NIST was directed to consult with the Interagency Working Group for Bayh-Dole to create a set of common questions to be used by all agencies as an application to apply for waivers of the domestic manufacturing requirement under the Bayh-Dole Act.
