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. Affordability-driven, Microwave Curing for Reversible Bonding of Composites

    SBC: AEROTECH ENGINEERING & RESEARCH CORP.            Topic: N/A

    Fastening and joining technology has lagged behind the progress that has been made in other areas of composites for advanced air vehicles. Aerotech proposes the development of reversible polymeric adhesive bonding of composites using variable frequency microwave energy. With this method, composites are bonded using Poly Ether Ether Ketone (a high temperature thermoplastic) which is cured using v ...

  2. Applying ICARUS to Task Scheduling of the Air Force's Satellite Control Network

    SBC: Lawrence Applied Research Corp.            Topic: N/A

    We will develop a proof-of-concept system that implements an innovative methodology to diagnose and repair unknown satellite anomalies. Our system is based on a novel approach that integrates Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) with Utility Theory. The resulting system deals with unknown and missing information, and selects from a case base the plans or actions that will either fix the satellite or will ...

  3. Brazed Aluminum Ribbon Composites Materials for Cryogenic Tanks

    SBC: TOUCHSTONE RESEARCH LABORATORY, LTD.            Topic: N/A

    A material which is stronger than conventional aluminum, less permeable to liquid hydrogen than polymer matrix composites (PMCs), less flammable that PMCs in the presence of liquid oxygen, and can be made into large, complex shapes without an autoclave, would have a significant advantage over current cryogenic tank materials. Touchstone Research Laboratory proposes its ...

  4. Commercial Solutions for Weather Forecasting

    SBC: NEXTGEN FEDERAL SYSTEMS LLC            Topic: AF182001

    Soil moisture is an important parameter for AF weather measurements and forecasting. It impacts Army operations (off-road mobility, land operations) and Intelligence Community’s knowledge (agriculture: social unrest). AF has classified soil moisture measurements and data as a DoD space-based environmental monitoring gap. If unmitigated, the lack of soil moisture data will diminish our asymm ...

  5. Rapid Tool-Less Forming of Airframe Components

    SBC: FAIRMOUNT TECHNOLOGIES LLC            Topic: AF191005

    Fairmount Technologies (FT) has developed and validated Stretch Roll Forming, a tool-free technology for CNC curving of extrusions to programmed contours. Parts can be formed directly in the –T temper, without heat treatment. SRF is currently being used to form commercial parts and spare parts for DLA. Tooling and heat treatment avoidance position SRF to play a vital role in organic manufac ...

  6. Innovative Methods for Thermoplastic Composites on ATL/AFP

    SBC: FIBER DYNAMICS, INC            Topic: AF191093

    Thermoplastic composites materials have shown potential to surpass the properties of aerospace thermoset composites for many years. However, the rigid material form, high processing temperatures and high cost have rendered them impractical for most warfighter applications. Recent advances in lower-cost automation, improved material processability / cost and precision heating systems have demonstra ...

  8. Situation Awareness Repair System (SARS)

    SBC: NEXTGEN FEDERAL SYSTEMS LLC            Topic: AF19AT001

    NextGen Federal Systems is proposing a system that addresses one of key problems for human-machine teams as they operate under conditions where communications links can be periodically lost or jammed. One of the primary challenges is that flight crews have to quickly assimilate all of the changes and events that have occurred to the unmanned platform during the outage in order to re-establish a sh ...
