12 U.S. Economic Development Administration Mission To lead the federal economic development agenda by promoting innovation and competitiveness, preparing American regions for growth and success in the worldwide economy. The U.S. Economic Development Administration's investment policy is designed to establish a foundation for sustainable job growth and the building of durable regional economies throughout the United States. This foundation builds upon two key economic drivers - innovation and regional collaboration. Innovation is key to global competitiveness, new and better jobs, a resilient economy, and the attainment of national economic goals. Regional collaboration is essential for economic recovery because regions are the centers of competition in the new global economy and those that work together to leverage resources and use their strengths to overcome weaknesses will fare better than those that do not. EDA encourages its partners around the country to develop initiatives that advance new ideas and creative approaches to address rapidly evolving economic conditions. EDA s Role As the only federal government agency focused exclusively on economic development, the U.S. Department of Commerce s Economic Development Administration (EDA) plays a critical role in fostering regional economic development efforts in communities across the nation. Through strategic investments that foster job creation and attract private investment, EDA supports development in economically distressed areas of the United States. Guided by the basic principle that communities must be empowered to develop and implement their own economic development and revitalization strategies, EDA works directly with local economic development officials to make grant investments that are well-defined, timely, and linked to a long-term, sustainable economic development strategy. EDA s flexible programs and structure enable nimble operations and allow for innovation and responsiveness to changing economic needs and conditions faced by its local and state government partners. Grants made under these programs are designed to leverage existing regional assets to support the implementation of economic development strategies that advance new ideas and creative approaches to advance economic prosperity in distressed communities. EDA s economic footprint is wide and its tool box is extensive including technical assistance, post-disaster recovery assistance, trade adjustment support, strategic planning and research and evaluation capacity, thereby allowing the agency to offer the most effective investment to help communities succeed in the global economy. 10
13 Investment Programs Public Works: U.S. Economic Development Administration Empowers distressed communities to revitalize, expand, and upgrade their physical infrastructure to attract new industry, encourage business expansion, diversify local economies, and generate or retain long-term, private sector jobs and investment. Economic Adjustment: Assists state and local interests in designing and implementing strategies to adjust or bring about change to an economy. The program focuses on areas that have experienced or are under threat of serious structural damage to the underlying economic base. Under Economic Adjustment, EDA administers its Revolving Loan Fund (RLF) Program, which supplies small businesses and entrepreneurs with the gap financing needed to start or expand their business. Partnership Planning: Supports local organizations (Economic Development Districts, Indian Tribes, and other eligible areas) with long-term planning efforts. The Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) Content Guidelines provides suggestions, tools, and resources for developing comprehensive economic development strategies. Trade Adjustment Assistance for Firms: A national network of 11 Trade Adjustment Assistance Centers to help strengthen the competitiveness of American companies that have lost domestic sales and employment because of increased imports of similar goods and services. University Centers: A partnership of the federal government and academia that makes the varied and vast resources of universities available to the economic development community. Research and National Technical Assistance: Supports research of leading edge, world class economic development practices and information dissemination efforts. Local Technical Assistance: Helps fill the knowledge and information gaps that may prevent leaders in the public and nonprofit sectors in distressed areas from making optimal decisions on local economic development issues. 11
14 Investment Priorities U.S. Economic Development Administration Within the parameters of a competitive grant process, all projects are evaluated to determine if they advance global competitiveness, create jobs, leverage public and private resources, can demonstrate readiness and ability to use funds quickly and effectively, and link to specific and measureable outcomes. To facilitate evaluation, EDA has established the following investment priorities: 1. Collaborative Regional Innovation Investments that support the development and growth of innovation clusters1 based on existing regional competitive strengths. Such initiatives must engage relevant stakeholders; facilitate collaboration among urban, suburban, and rural (including tribal) areas; provide stability for economic development through longterm intergovernmental and public/private collaboration; and support the growth of existing and emerging industries. 2. Public/Private Partnerships Investments that use both public and private sector resources and complementary investments by other government/public entities and/or nonprofits. 3. National Strategic Priorities Investments that: a. encourage job growth and business expansion in manufacturing, including advanced manufacturing, sustainable manufacturing, and manufacturing supply chains; b. assist communities severely impacted by the declining use of coal; c. increase economic resiliency, including resilience to the effects of natural disasters and climate change; d. assist with natural disaster mitigation and recovery; e. are aimed at restoring or improving urban waters and the communities that surround them; and f. assist and/or support: i. information technology infrastructure (for example, broadband or smart grid); ii. communities severely impacted by automotive industry restructuring; iii. job- driven skills development; iv. access to capital for small- and medium-sized and ethnically diverse enterprises; v. innovations in science and health care; and vi. advancement of science and research parks, other technology transfer, or technology commercialization efforts. 4. Global Competitiveness Investments that support high-growth businesses and innovation-based entrepreneurs to expand and compete in global markets, especially investments that expand U.S. exports, encourage foreign direct investment, and promote the repatriation of jobs back to the U.S. 12
15 5. Environmentally-Sustainable Development Investments that promote job creation and economic prosperity through enhancing environmental quality and developing and implementing green products, processes, places, and buildings as part of the green economy. This includes projects that encourage job growth, business expansion, and innovations in energy-efficient technologies and clean energy, including alternative fuel technologies. 6. Underserved Communities Investments that strengthen diverse communities that have suffered disproportionate economic distress and job losses and/or are rebuilding to become more competitive in the global economy. 13
16 CEDS SCOPE OF WORK The purpose of the EDA planning investments is to provide support to planning organizations for the development, implementation, revision, or replacement of Comprehensive Economic Development Strategies (CEDS) pursuant to Section 303 of EDA s Final Rule. Specific work elements for FY 2016 will include: Development and update of the CEDS for the region, as appropriate; Utilization of the CEDS and CEDS process to foster collaborative regional economic development efforts; Implementation of the Action Plan of the CEDS including grant writing, planning and technical assistance, other economic development assistance, training, travel, and other related activities, if directly associated to CEDS implementation; Focusing on long-term economic development strategies and investments that will spur high-wage, high-value added job growth in the Region s cluster industries; Coordinated federal, state, and local funds to optimize the implementation of the CEDS action plan and progress toward attainment of regional goals, objectives and vision; Provide reports, data and regional information as requested by EDA in a timely manner; Ensuring that the EDD complies with EDA regulations particularly those regarding eligibility, designation, and CEDS; and Government Performance and Results Act reporting. 14
