Institutes of Health. 

Need and Use of Information 

Collection: Presidential Executive Order 

13779 is the White House Initiative to 

Promote Excellence and Innovation at 

Historically Black Colleges and 

Universities (HBCUs). Through this 

initiative, Federal agencies were 

mandated to assist in strengthening 

HBCUs’ ability for equitable 

participation in Federal programs and 

explore new ways to improve the 

relationship between the Federal 

Government and HBCUs. This initiative 

has established how the agency intends 

to increase the capacity of HBCUs to 

compete effectively for grants and 

contracts. 

The Path to Excellence and 

Innovation was a comprehensive plan to 

expand the existing National Institutes 

of Health (NIH) Small Business Program 

in the Office of Acquisition and 

Logistics Management. The Path to 

Excellence provided a platform for 

increased transparency between HBCUs 

and the Federal Government through 

the provision of outreach events, 

training opportunities, and one-on-one 

assistance. There were nineteen schools 

and each school had chosen one or more 

small business teaming partner(s) to 

support their effort in this program. 

Through the collection of this 

information, the NIH Small Business 

Program Office will gain insight into 

what government grants and contracts 

are of interest to HBCUs and small 

businesses. This information has 

supported the initiative to help HBCUs 

and small businesses because this tool 

aids them to be more knowledgeable 

about what opportunities regarding 

grants and contracts exist for their 

organization. 

Office of Management and Budget 

approval is requested for a 3-year 

extension. There are no costs to 

respondents other than their time. The 

total estimated annualized burden hours 

are 108.
