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. Electroplated Alloys for Replacement of Hard Chrome on Stainless Steel Actuators

    SBC: TDA RESEARCH, INC.            Topic: AF131202

    ABSTRACT: Electrolytic Hard Chrome (ECH) is the standard coating method for 4XXX steels used in actuators and depot-based repair of damaged items. The properties of EHC coatings are excellent, and as a result EHC coatings have been used for more than 50 years. Unfortunately, EHC plating uses hexavalent chromium (Cr6+) that is regulated by both OSHA and the EPA. Health and environmental concern ...

  2. Aircraft Maintenance Management to Unanticipated Failure Events

    SBC: Robbins-GIoia, LLC            Topic: AF131204

    ABSTRACT: The Air Force"s Air Logistics Centers (ALCs) are charged to maintain the fleet at maximum readiness. In order to achieve this goal, the ALCs perform aircraft scheduled maintenance using well-defined planning and scheduling processes and procedures by assigning MRO tasks to minimize the time an aircraft spends at the depot and the associated maintenance costs. However, the current system ...

  3. Integrated Aircraft Sensor Network for Real Time Leak Detection

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: AF131206

    ABSTRACT: Aircraft damage resulting from environmental exposure and fluid leaks constitute a major portion of the costs associated with aircraft repairs and lead to significantly reduced mission readiness. The ability to identify contaminant exposure within airframes and inform maintenance personnel of leaks, corrosive environments, and chemical contaminants in difficult to access areas will all ...

  5. Non-Destructive Inspection for Medium Caliber Gun Barrel Fatigue Crack

    SBC: Prime Photonics, LC            Topic: AF141205

    ABSTRACT: Prime Photonics is developing an ultrasonically enhanced magnetic field detection system that will measure defects, voids and residual stresses in ferrous and non-ferrous materials. Successful development and deployment of this technology will enable on condition replacement of critical components, increasing safety and reducing cost. This product can also be part of an integrated logis ...

  6. Quantitative Gun Barrel Diagnostics with Remote Field Eddy Currents and Artificial Intelligence

    SBC: LUNA INNOVATIONS INCORPORATED            Topic: AF141205

    ABSTRACT: Gun barrels have a variety of failure modes that must be monitored over the life of a barrel. Fatigue cracking is one of the most critical failure modes and can result in catastrophic barrel rupture if not detected and addressed. Currently, there is no existing NDI method or equipment to assess fatigue cracking within the barrel wall. Luna"s proposed technique has the advantage of autom ...

  9. Resonant Cavity Enhanced Photo-Diodes for LWIR Communications

    SBC: AMETHYST RESEARCH INC            Topic: AF151050

    ABSTRACT:The LWIR spectrum is well suited for moderate- to long-range free space communications because of its atmospheric window and low scattering by dust, haze, precipitation, and fog. The recent impressive laser development of QCLs is poised to provide the high speed LWIR transmitter for such a free space communication system; a corresponding advance in LWIR detectors is needed to enable the h ...

  10. Reconfigurable RF Front-end for Multi-GNSS/Communication SDR Receiver

    SBC: COLORADO ENGINEERING INC.            Topic: AF151077

    ABSTRACT:Software Defined Radios rely on digital FPGAs and/or high performance general purpose processors to realize flexible transmitter/receiver solutions that can adapt to various modulation schemes, waveforms, and even mission functions. However, achieving similar flexibility in the complementary RF Front End (RF-FE) poses a much bigger challenge. RF solutions are often designed to specific fr ...
