SBIR/Challenge Admin

Abstract

The SBIR/STTR Program is executed in three phases. The purpose of Phase I is to determine, insofar as possible, the scientific technical and commercial merit, and feasibility of ideas submitted under the SBIR/STTR Program. Phase II is the principal research or research and development effort and is expected to produce a well-defined deliverable prototype. Phase III SBIR/STTR efforts derive from, extend or conclude Phase I or Phase II efforts, and are not funded with SBIR/STTR funds. Under Phase III, companies participating in the SBIR/STTR Program are expected to obtain funding from the private sector and/or non-SBIR/ STTR government sources to develop the prototype into a viable product or non-R&D service for sale in military and/or private sector markets. This PE funds the administrative support to the SBIR/STTR programs including policy development, monitoring program execution for participating DOD agencies, outreach to small businesses, training for DOD small business and contracting professionals, and an annual conference to bring together the stakeholders for networking and program updates.
