Book Synopsis An Assessment of the SBIR Program at the Department of Defense by : National Research Council
Download or read book An Assessment of the SBIR Program at the Department of Defense written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-10-28 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SBIR program allocates 2.5 percent of 11 federal agencies' extramural R&D budgets to fund R&D projects by small businesses, providing approximately $2 billion annually in competitive awards. At the request of Congress, the National Academies conducted a comprehensive study of how the SBIR program has stimulated technological innovation and used small businesses to meet federal research and development needs. Drawing substantially on new data collection, this book examines the SBIR program at the Department of Defense and makes recommendations for improvements. Separate reports will assess the SBIR program at NSF, NIH, DOE, and NASA, respectively, along with a comprehensive report on the entire program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Created in 1982 through the Small Business Innovation Development Act, the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program remains the nation's single largest innovation program for small business. The SBIR program offers competitive awards to support the development and commercialization of innovative technologies by small private-sector businesses. At the same time, the program provides government agencies with technical and scientific solutions that address their different missions. SBIR at the Department of Defense considers ways that the Department of Defense SBIR program could work better in addressing the congressional objectives for the SBIR program to stimulate technological innovation, use small businesses to meet federal research and development (R & D) needs, foster and encourage the participation of socially and economically disadvantaged small businesses, and increase the private sector commercialization of innovations derived from federal R&D. An earlier report, An Assessment of the Small Business Innovation Research Program at the Department of Defense, studied how the SBIR program has stimulated technological innovation and used small businesses to meet federal research and development needs. This report builds on the previous one, with a revised survey of SBIR companies. SBIR at the Department of Defense revisits some case studies from the 2009 study and develops new ones, and interviews agency managers and other stakeholders to provide a second snapshot of the program's progress toward achieving its legislative goals.

Book Synopsis Revisiting the Department of Defense SBIR Fast Track Initiative by : National Research Council
Download or read book Revisiting the Department of Defense SBIR Fast Track Initiative written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-10-25 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In October 1995, the Department of Defense launched a Fast Track initiative to attract new firms and encourage commercialization of Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) funded technologies throughout the department. The goal of the Fast Track initiative is to help close the funding gap that can occur between Phase I and II of the SBIR program. The Fast Track initiative seeks to address the gap by providing expedited review and essentially continuous funding from Phase I to Phase II, as long as applying firms can demonstrate that they have obtained third-party financing for their technology. Another program initiative, Phase II Enhancement, was launched in 1999 to concentrate SBIR funds on those R&D projects most likely to result in viable new products that the Department of Defense and others will buy. The current volume evaluates the two SBIR Program initiatives-Fast Track and Phase II Enhancement-and finds that both programs are effective. Ninety percent of Fast Track and 95 percent of Phase II Enhancement reported satisfaction with their decision. This book identifies the successes and remaining shortcomings of the programs, providing recommendations to address these issues.

This book was released on 2000-10-30 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1992, Congress for the first time explicitly directed the federal agencies making SBIR grants to use commercial potential as a criterion for granting SBIR awards. In response, the Department of Defense developed the SBIR Fast Track initiative, which provides expedited decision-making for SBIR awards to companies that have commitments from outside vendors. To verify the effectiveness of this initiative, the DoD asked the STEP Board to assess the operation of Fast Track. This volume of original field research includes case studies comparing Fast Track and non-Fast Track firms, a large survey of SBIR awardees, and statistical analyses of the impact of regular SBIR and Fast Track awards. Collectively, the commissioned papers and the findings and recommendations represent a significant contribution to our understanding of the SBIR program.

Download or read book Federal Research: DoD's Small Business Innovation Research Program written by and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Defense (DOD) and certain other federal agencies are required to set aside a certain percentage of their research and development (R&D) budgets for the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program. In fiscal year 1997, this will amount to about $1 billion governmentwide, of which about $500 million is expected to be funded by DOD. The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1997 required GAO to review certain aspects of DOD'S SBIR program and report the results to the Congress. To meet these objectives and by agreement with your offices, the General Accounting Office reviewed DOD'S policies and procedures to determine if they establish processes that help ensure that (1) quality research is performed under the funding agreements, (2) competitive procedures are being followed, and (3) technologies developed through the program are likely to be used in military programs or projects.
Book Synopsis DoD Small Business Innovation Research Program by :
Download or read book DoD Small Business Innovation Research Program written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The DoD IG evaluated whether Military Departments and the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) effectively used the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program for research and development projects to meet DoD requirements and whether projects developed for the SBIR program resulted in products for commercial or military markets. The audit team found that Army, Navy, Air Force, and DARPA used different methodologies to track and report SBIR commercialization. Inconsistent approaches to reporting Phase III contracting actions may have led to underreporting of SBIR successes. Underreported SBIR successes may affect future congressional decisions to reauthorize the Federal SBIR program and diminish the role that small businesses play in early-stage research and development with DoD activities.

Book Synopsis SBIR and the Phase III Challenge of Commercialization by : National Research Council
Download or read book SBIR and the Phase III Challenge of Commercialization written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2007-03-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a Congressional mandate, the National Research Council conducted a review of the Small Business Innovation Research Program (SBIR) at the five federal agencies with SBIR programs with budgets in excess of $100 million (DOD, NIH, NASA, DOE, and NSF). The project was designed to answer questions of program operation and effectiveness, including the quality of the research projects being conducted under the SBIR program, the commercialization of the research, and the program's contribution to accomplishing agency missions. This report summarizes the presentations at a symposium exploring the effectiveness of Phase III of the SBIR program (the commercialization phase), during which innovations funded by Phase II awards move from the laboratory into the marketplace. No SBIR funds support Phase III; instead, to commercialize their products, small businesses are expected to garner additional funds from private investors, the capital markets, or from the agency that made the initial award.
