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. Locking Adhesive Dispensing onto Threaded Fasteners

    SBC: Physical Optics Corporation            Topic: MDA16014

    To address the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) need for tooling and processes for repeatable adhesive dispensing onto threaded fasteners in missile production, Physical Optics Corporation (POC) proposes, in Phase II, to advance development of the new Locking Adhesive DIspensing onto threaded Fasteners (LADIF) system. During Phase I effort, POC developed and demonstrated the feasibility of the LADIF c ...

  2. Novel Signal Processing Softwarefor Improving Inertial Measurement Unit Performance

    SBC: OPTIMAL SYNTHESIS INC.            Topic: MDA16012

    Novel algorithms for improving the performance of IMU without changing the sensor hardware were demonstrated during the Phase I research. These improvements consisted of higher-order nonlinear transfer alignment and calibration filters incorporating detailed models of sensor uncertainties, de-noising algorithms to eliminate the impact of shock and vibration on the IMU navigation solution, and more ...

  5. Radiation Hardened Interceptor Seeker Sensor Technologies

    SBC: NU-TREK, INC.            Topic: MDA16011

    A key requirement for IR sensors in interceptor seekers is to continue to image through adverse environments, including the radiation from nuclear events. This radiation hardening requirement is addressed with a multifaceted approach that includes a novel filter, implemented in the unit cell, that mitigates the effects of gammas, betas, and protons, while leaving the IR signal unaltered. Other rad ...

  6. System-level Post Intercept Assessment

    SBC: TOYON RESEARCH CORPORATION            Topic: MDA16001

    Performing post-intercept assessment (PIA) is challenging due to the dual problems of first, extracting usable data in a highly cluttered and unpredictable post-intercept environment, and second, fusing that disparate data in a flexible and rapid way. Toyon and Modern Technology Solutions, Inc. (MTSI) propose a two-pronged approach to PIA dealing with the feature-finding and feature-fusion aspects ...

  7. Low-Density Ablator-Filled Foam Incorporating Lyocell-Derived Carbon Fiber for BMDS Interceptors, Phase II

    SBC: ULTRAMET            Topic: MDA16020

    In previous exit cone insulator development for MDA and heat shield fabrication for NASA, Ultramet developed advanced foam-reinforced carbon/phenolic ablators, now at TRL 6, that offer substantially increased performance under high heat flux conditions and reduced weight relative to conventional ablators. Solid rocket motor and arcjet testing showed that the foam provides effective reinforcement f ...

  8. Innoflight Miniature End Cryptographic Unit

    SBC: Innoflight, Inc.            Topic: MDA10033

    Future MDA missions will rely heavily on constellations of Space Vehicles (SVs) that are able to communicate securely with each other and with the ground.Ideally, each MDA Space Vehicle will be able to communicate with any other spacecraft and with the ground all of the time, even though different pathways may needed at different times.Mesh networking based on the Internet Protocol (IP) is a natur ...

  9. Novel Structure-Preserving Algorithms for Accurate Rocket Trajectory Propagation

    SBC: OPTIMAL SYNTHESIS INC.            Topic: MDA17T002

    The Department of Defense uses large-scale high-resolution federated simulations to propagate rocket vehicle trajectories. Runge-Kutta methods have served as a de-facto standard while conducting such simulations. However, there are several challenges while using Runge-Kutta methods for this task. Firstly, there should be exact time-step matching between federates, otherwise the states have to be i ...
