To be eligible for funding under the program, a company must demonstrate that it is undergoing (i) integration of new technology into its production process, (ii) a change of product line in keeping with marketplace demands, or (iii) substantial change to its service delivery process, which would require assimilation of new skills and technological capabilities by the firm's existing labor force.
