The Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy shall seek to enter into an agreement with the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (in this subsection the National Academies ) to perform the services covered by this section. Under an agreement between the Director and the National Academies under this subsection, the National Academies shall carry out an independent study to assess the progress made by the National Quantum Initiative Program in achieving the purposes set forth under section 3 of the National Quantum Initiative Act ( 15 U.S.C. 8802 ) and the goals of the Program, including with respect to sensing, communications, computing, and workforce development for near-term development and quantum applications.
Not later than 180 days after the date of the enactment of this Act, the consortium convened by the Director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology pursuant to section 201(b)(1) of the National Quantum Initiative Act ( 15 U.S.C. 8831(b)(1) ) shall— conduct a study— on the impediments to collaboration under the National Quantum Initiative Program implemented pursuant to section 101(a) of such Act ( 15 U.S.C. 8811(a) ) between Multidisciplinary Centers for Quantum Research and Education established under section 302(a) of such Act ( 15 U.S.C. 8842(a) ), National Quantum Information Science Research Centers established and operated pursuant to section 402(a)(1) of such Act ( 15 U.S.C. 8852(a)(1) ), industry, and academia; and to develop recommendations for legislative action to eliminate or mitigate such impediments; and submit to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation of the Senate and the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology of the House of Representatives a report on the findings of the consortium with respect to the study conducted pursuant to paragraph (1).
The report submitted under paragraph (1)(B) shall include the following: An overview of the current state of research being conducted under the National Quantum Initiative Program. A breakdown of the funding under the Program for near-term quantum applications development, disaggregated by different quantum technologies, including computing (annealing and gate-model with the different types of qubit technologies), sensing, communication, and networking. Identification of potential risks in the research funded under the Program.
