The trend over the last several years is fewer businesses supplying manufactured products. Thus, by supply and demand, the cost of military hardware has increased with less competition. Furthermore, amortized cost of the qualifying a new product becomes cost prohibited resulting in non-competitive bids compared to historical averages. DLAs Replenishment Parts Purchase or Borrow program supports re ...

ORBIS proposes to Address SBIR DLA171-002 by developing efficient and effective processes to reverse engineer RPPOB Candidate Items. ORBIS has a wealth of experience in supporting DoD systems and components and is well suited to addressing the backlog of unsupported equipment .

A technical approach is proposed to survey the industry for state of the art capabilities in terms of the SOCOM mission requirements described in the solicitation for the Group 2 Tactical ISR UAS. The results of the survey will select a configuration of potential candidate UAS that would meet the threshold and ultimately objective goals stated.

Vadum will develop and simulate a new beamforming protocol for Distributed Communications and Electronic Warfare (DCEW) that will implement distributed TX and RX beamforming algorithms between a cluster of nodes, such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), and cooperative or uncooperative receivers. The Vadum approach uses an innovative Master-Slave architecture employing multiple input multiple outpu ...

This effort will leverage commercial wearable sensors to tailor physical fitness training to increase Marines physical fitness and readiness. Marines are not often given a clear set of protocols for exercises, nor given adequate tools to monitor their fitness levels. Part of this work is to align infantry task demands against physiological measures, then identify a set of devices suitable for main ...

Vigilant Cyber Systems, Inc. (VCS) has designed a Cyber Battle Damage Assessment Tool (CyBDAT) to quantify the probabilities associated with Computer Network Attack (CNA), Computer Network Exploitation (CNE) and Electronic Attack (EA) and allow for the direct comparison of cyber-attacks and kinetic attacks in mission planning. In Phase I VCS completed the high level design of CyBDAT, completed the ...

The Windlift Man Portable Wind Energy System (MPWES) will produce 6 kW of renewable energy while weighing only 440 lbs. The renewable energy density (W/lb.) will be approximately seven times greater than a state of the art solar system, as represented by the GREENS system which is currently deployed by the USMC. Significant optimizations are possible in future design spirals that will allow the sy ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) project will be a cost-effective, commercially viable, alternative process for on-site treatment of food waste and energy recovery. In the U.S., nearly 40% of food is wasted with $165 billion equivalent loss of food plus associated water, energy, chemicals, and labor used in food production. Disposal of the f ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this project is to develop smart software to plan and control Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure in commercial facilities, such as workplaces, hotels, car rental centers, parking garages, etc. The EV planning software finds the optimal design balancing design tradeoffs such as EV customer satisfaction, grid stability limits and financial constr ...

The broader impact/commercial potential of this Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to significantly reduce primary care physician shortages and improve quality of care for low income patients in the United States by developing a tool that analyzes clinical care team performance data at federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) to automatically deploy individually tailore ...
