From HIV to metastatic cancer, state-of-the-art therapeutics are static biological or pharmaceutical compounds—whose efficacy is inevitably lost once their evolving disease targets sufficiently mutate. We engineered the first adaptive therapeutics designed to co-adapt with adapting disease agents—to provide ‘resistance-proof’ disease control. Known as Therapeutic Interfering Particles (‘ ...

We propose to continue our project generating transgenic insect with improved nutrition for humans and livestock, building on the milestones we have reached and will continue to develop in phase I. We have already demonstrated insertion of exogenous reporter DNA into the insect, and continue to develop genetic engineering tools and techniques. We have expressed the biosynthetic pathway of interest ...

Development of air vehicles capable of routine operation and able to achieve hypersonic speeds is paced by the availability of a propulsion system. The vision is to combine improved off-the-shelf turbines for low-speed operation (M=0 to 2+) and dual-mode ramjet (DMSJ) engine technologies for high-speed operation (M=2+ to 5+), with both engines sharing a common air inlet and a common thrust produci ...

During the phase I effort, Semandex Networks and its team designed and implemented a proof-of-concept cloud-based application for knowledge navigation and document discovery that combines powerful text analytics with an intuitive UI. The prototype capability is poised to transform current data archival systems into meaningful connected information. The proof-of-concept prototype developed during t ...

In Phase 1, we obtained samples through the RPPOB process, performed due diligence, reverse engineered, created engineering drawings, performed positive material identifications, assigned proper quality control documentation, and all pertinent technical activities to complete a technical data package in accordance with the DLA requirements and submit a SAR for evaluation and acceptance. In this pr ...

This proposal introduces an approach from Brighton Cromwell to Improve product availability and increase competition through the development of Small Business eligible manufacturing utilizing the DLA’s Land and Maritime (L&M) Limited Source National Stock Number (NSN) List. The list contains NSNs with an Annual Demand Value (ADV) >$10K currently sourced with only 1-2 manufacturers. We are offeri ...

Parts Life Incorporated (PLI) has completed the SAR Process and Reverse Engineering Risk Avoidance Process (RERAP) to demonstrate its ability to replicate the Seal Asy Hub, 2530-00-736-4672 through quality management programs. The DLA will have a competitive approved source for procurement of the Seal by utilizing PLI's method of manufacturing. The Materials, Equipment, Management, Measurements, E ...

This proposal seeks NDI Engineering Company (CAGE code: 4X596) to become approved as apotential source of supply to DLA for the MK 2 Nose Gear Launch Shaft Assembly, NAVAIRpart number 511224-1; Shaft, Shouldered, NSN 3040-00-224-9019. In Phase I, NDIEngineering Company submitted one a Source Approval Request (SAR) for the manufacturingof the Shaft Assembly defined as NAVAIR part number 511224-1. I ...

Mentis Sciences Inc. proposes to develop Technical Data Packages and generate Source Approval Requests for critically needed components for the Air Launched Cruise Missile engine platform, the F107, which is no longer supported by the OEM. The supply of some spare parts may be exhausted as early as Oct 2018, on a system that is scheduled to remain in service through at least 2030.Mentis will work ...

The objective will becontinue the progress made in Phase I program for anti-counterfeiting label/tape solutions which are easy to deploy through the existing DLA supply chain. We willdemonstratethe technologies withtamper and counterfeit detection capabilities. A comprehensive report will be submitted that will include the results of the demonstration, describes how the technology might be impleme ...
