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. Automated Factor-Based Sensitivity Analysis

    SBC: NUMERICA CORPORATION            Topic: MDA20001

    Numerica proposes a novel approach to automated factor-based sensitivity analysis in high-dimensional search spaces, leveraging recent advances in physics and machine learning utilizing low-rank tensor models and adaptive sampling techniques to overcome the curse of dimensionality for many problems. Based on this technology, we propose an automated software analysis tool that exercises the algorit ...

  2. Automated Factor-Based Sensitivity Analysis

    SBC: AGILE DECISION SCIENCES, LLC            Topic: MDA20001

    There is a large space of threat data, scenarios, and input variables required for understanding the behavior of Aegis Weapon System (AWS) designs like the Figure of Merit (FOM) algorithm used in the Weapon Control System (WCS) functions for Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) intercept prediction function and pre-launch coordination. Developing an understanding of performance roll-offs and discontinu ...

  3. Automated Factor-Based Sensitivity Analysis

    SBC: WARPIV TECHNOLOGIES, INC.            Topic: MDA20001

    WarpIV Technologies, Inc. proposes to develop a Response Surface Methodology (RSM) tool that will intelligently guide excursions of the AWS MD Engage-ability prelaunch FOM algorithm (and any algorithms under test) to reconstruct its response surface using tenth-order polynomials of up to 100 control variables. Brute force polynomial curve fitting techniques cannot be used to solve this problem bec ...

  4. Automated Factor-Based Sensitivity Analysis

    SBC: INNOVATIVE DEFENSE TECHNOLOGIES, LLC            Topic: MDA20001

    Large defense systems composed of numerous integrated subsystems and algorithms have complex interdependencies that require rigorous analysis to fully comprehend. Uncertainties in the inputs of component 1 can affect its output in such a way that component 2, dependent on component 1’s output, is also affected. This cascading ripple effect can induce significant changes in overall system behavio ...

  5. Lightweight Structural Metamaterials for Second and Third Stage Rocket Motors

    SBC: ARCHARITHMS INC            Topic: MDA20002

    With the development and demonstration of near peer hypervelocity missiles the need to provide the warfighter with a viable defense against these threats is vital. There are many issues that interceptors used to negate hypervelocity weapons must overcome. These include weight reduction, operation at high temperatures, the ability to withstand high axial and lateral accelerations, maintaining struc ...

  6. Lightweight Structural Metamaterials for Second and Third Stage Rocket Motors

    SBC: VALLEY TECH SYSTEMS INC            Topic: MDA20002

    Valley Tech Systems has developed Hot Gas Valve (HGV) and thruster technology advancements, through the MDA SBIR program, that directly benefit future Standard Missile 3 (SM3) mid-course interceptor capabilities. During this phase I SBIR program we will evolve our HGV and thruster designs through application of more complex metamaterial technologies that will further increase future SM3 intercepto ...

  7. MAX Phase Coating for High Temperature and High Strength Control Surfaces

    SBC: ULTRAMET            Topic: MDA20002

    Missile defense interceptors experience very high axial and lateral accelerations as well as extremely stressful aerothermal environments during atmospheric operation. To maximize performance, control surfaces (e.g. fins, strakes, canards) must be a low-density, lightweight, and rigid structure that can operate at high temperature (up to 1400°C) in an oxidative environment. The MAX phase ternary ...

  8. ULTRA Interceptor Stage

    SBC: EXQUADRUM INC            Topic: MDA20003

    During the proposed Phase I research and development effort, the project team will integrate previously demonstrated technologies into a high-performance rocket motor to serve as a missile defense interceptor upper stage. The resulting rocket motor will meet MDA requirements for a high degree of agility, high total impulse, very high axial acceleration as well as high specific impulse. The propuls ...

  9. High Power, Single Mode, Diode Emitter for Directed Energy Applications

    SBC: Fuceltech Inc            Topic: MDA20004

    MDA is interested in developing single mode high power diode lasers with excellent beam quality and high efficiency and coherently combine them for high power output and use the coherently combined modules to build high power direct diode laser (HPDDL) systems capable of achieving upwards of 10-100 kW (dependent on the beam combining technique) of high output power while maintaining the beam quali ...

  10. Ultra-High Efficiency Diffraction-Limited MOPA Diodes for Direct Diode High Power Lasers

    SBC: LASER OPERATIONS LLC            Topic: MDA20004

    Fiber-lasers are much less efficient than direct diode lasers because of photon energy defects and coupling losses, but low power-per-emitter, poor beam quality and uncontrolled spectra precludes the direct use of diodes in directed-energy lasers. We will apply our Master Oscillator Power Amplifier technology to the fabrication of highly efficient, reliable, diffraction-limited, single-frequency d ...
