Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR)

Abstract

This project explores innovative concepts pursuant to Public Law 106-554 (Small Business Reauthorization Act of 2000) and Public Law 107-50 (Small Business Technology Transfer Program Reauthorization Act of 2001), which mandates a two-phase competition for small businesses with innovative technologies with a defense application as well as a commercial value. The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs will develop new dual-use technologies for possible future Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) needs. Dual-use means the technologies will be judged on their potential for future private sector investment both as a vehicle for reducing development time and cost, unit costs of new DLA technologies, and as a route to national economic growth through new commercial products. DLA will conduct the competition as well as award and manage the contracts. The Defense Logistics Agency`s SBIR/STTR investments are divided into multiple Research Areas identified from within several DLA Elements: J3 R&D - Advanced Battery Manufacturing (BATTNET): Manufacturing Improvements for DLA Lithium Batteries - Advanced Castings and Forgings (PRO-Fast): - Anti Counterfeiting: - Aircraft Alternative Braking System for Reduced Cost of Sustainment - Economically Recovering Rare Earth Materials - Advanced Technologies for Smart Connected Logistics J6 R&D - TBD DMEA - TBD
