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. Structural Nuclear Effect Mitigation of Composite Aeroshells for Munitions for Air Platforms and Cruise Missile Systems

    SBC: Conductive Composites Company, L.L.C.            Topic: AF181048

    Next generation munition systems must be capable of mitigating a multitude of threats including ionizing nuclear radiation (i.e. X-ray, gamma, and neutron), electromagnetic threats, high-temperature environments, and other countermeasures such as high-power microwave (HPM). Conductive Composites Company (CCC) has a unique understanding of the problem and has spent the past three decades developing ...
