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: DLA J3 R&D - Additive Manufacturing - Advanced Battery Manufacturing - Advanced Aircraft Braking Systems - Anti-Counterfeiting - Medical 3D Printing - Seamless Fuel Bladders - Strategic Materials - Warehouse Modernization - Subsistence - Limited Source NSN List (Source Approval Request (SAR) Development) - Reverse Engineering Technical Data Packages DMEA - Advanced microelectronics concepts, technologies, and applications.
