The Award database is continually updated throughout the year. As a result, data for FY24 is not expected to be complete until March, 2025.

Download all SBIR.gov award data either with award abstracts (290MB) or without award abstracts (65MB). A data dictionary and additional information is located on the Data Resource Page. Files are refreshed monthly.

The SBIR.gov award data files now contain the required fields to calculate award timeliness for individual awards or for an agency or branch. Additional information on calculating award timeliness is available on the Data Resource Page.

  1. A Novel Microwave Sensor for Non- Destructive Evaluation of Silicon Nitride Bearing Balls

    SBC: ALPHASENSE, INC.            Topic: AF083109

    In this proposal, Alphasense, Inc. details the development of a novel microwave NDE sensor for defect inspections in silicon nitride bearing balls. The key innovations of this proposal include the following: a) the use of the spherical bearing ball as a dielectric resonator, thus enabling us to correlate the resonance characteristics of the bearing ball with various defects; b) the measurements in ...

  3. Advanced Technologies for Discrete-Parts Manufacturing

    SBC: MANUFACTURING LABORATORIES, INC.            Topic: DLA08001

    Significant advances have been made in machining technology, most notably machining centers capable of spindle speeds and feedrates that are an order of magnitude higher than conventional. However, the use of this new technology requires much more technical expertise, and experience and intuition are no longer sufficient. Specifically, machine tool productivity can be greatly enhanced if informati ...
