An external expert panel will rapidly review all project proposals submitted to RADx for program suitability and technology readiness level. Following review, if NIH accepts a project into the RADx program, project teams will initiate a \u201cdeep dive\u201d with content and commercialization experts that produces a customized work package. Based on the results of this deep dive, a subset of projects will be selected for progression to work package implementation.<\/li>\n<li><b>Work Package Implementation.<\/b>&nbsp;The awarded milestone-driven budget will be sufficient to enable full product commercialization on a maximally accelerated timeline. Additional accelerating resources will be made available through partnerships established by NIH and in-kind support provided by NIH and RADx. For projects that meet all milestones toward product&nbsp;distribution, budgets of tens of millions of dollars are anticipated.
