Characteristics of CRADAs
Will only be used where the work to be performed (as described in the statement of work) is done collaboratively by Laboratory employees and Participant employees.
Work often focuses on maturation of a technology portfolio (typically one or more patents) that the laboratory has developed that requires further development to achieve commercialization.
Projects must be approved by DOE, and must support DOE missions.
Each party owns its own inventions; Participant is granted a first option to license Laboratory-owned inventions created under the CRADA.  Generated Information that is not patentable can be kept confidential as Protected CRADA Information for up to 5 years.
Funding mechanisms are flexible.  Participant’s in-kind work contribution is always funded by the Participant.  Laboratory’s efforts may be funded by government funds or funds-in from the Participant or a combination of the two.  No funds may flow from the Laboratory to a Participant under a CRADA.
