  1. Department of Navy (DON)SBIR and STTR Program SBIR/STTR At A GlanceMarch 4, 2014 Jack Griffin Deputy S&T Director PEO Littoral Combat Ships Distribution Statement A. Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited

  2. Use small business to develop innovative R&D that addresses a Navy or Marine Corps need – including energy efficiency improvements and cyber security improvements, as the DON mission evolves. Commercialize (Phase III) that technology into a DON platform or weapons/communication system, or for facilities use in expeditionary bases in new “pivot” locales in Africa and Asia. DON SBIR/STTR Main Goals

  3. Typical DON SBIR/STTR Phase I and Phase II Funding Landscape Idea Generation Prototype Development/ Demonstration Demonstration / Commercialization Each SYSCOM has own Phase II guidance (typical amounts shown) Production/Further R&D

  4. Acquisition Driven Process, withStrong Technology Pull • SBIR/STTR projects derive from SYSCOM-generated Topics announced in quarterly solicitations. • Over 80% of Navy Topics are selected by PEO/PM/FNC offices and address their specific needs, not just “sponsored by”. • PEOs get back 90% of their SBIR/STTR “tax” , as Topics. They make Phase I and II selections and have Phase III funding. • Many contracts monitored by lab employees with Acquisition Office POC involved.

  5. DON SBIR/STTR Supports a Wide Variety of Technology NeedsSSN-774 Virginia-class Submarine

  6. Generic SBIR/STTR Award StructureDON SYSCOMS tailor this model as needed Commercialization Transition Technology Development and Prototype Demonstration Prototype Testing & Evaluation Technology Demo & Validation Feasibility Study NOTE: A ‘Subsequent Phase II’ is a Requirements Driven process; i.e., based upon Acquisition program needs. NTE $2.775M Total SBIR /STTR Funding Phase III – can occur anytime after Phase I and is funded with non-SBIR/STTR$ TTP: Technology Transition Plan TTA: Technology Transition Agreement Updated June 6, 2013

  7. What’s New With SBIR/STTR? • SBIR/STTR Reauthorization statute focuses on increased commercialization: • DoD services and components must set transition and insertion goals • All Federal agencies may offer increased transition assistance to awardees • Awardees must transition SBIR/STTR projects • Phase II Transition Rate Benchmark • Applies to firms receiving >20 Phase Is over 5 years: 25% benchmark for winning Phase Iis. • Commercialization Rate Benchmark • Applies to firms receiving >15 Phase IIs over 5 years: 25% benchmark for winning Phase IIIs. • Period of calculation excludes most recently completed fiscal year. • Penalty • Awardees failing either benchmark are ineligible for a new Phase I or II award for one year from the time of determination (June 1). SBA notifies Agencies and ineligible firms, Agencies report denied applications.

  8. What’s New With SBIR/STTR? • Statute also focuses on opening access to SBIR/STTR • Federal agencies are required to develop and execute outreach plans to underserved populations, with emphasis on women and minority entrepreneurs … especially in states with fewer SBIR/STTR awardees • State-oriented FAST program is reestablished • …. while protecting against potential improprieties • Federal agencies are expected to offer guidance to SBIR/STTR awardees on fraud, waste and abuse – and to implement methods of curbing abuse • Statute allows all Phase I awardees to submit Phase II proposals • Agency practices are described in solicitations • Latest amendments to SBA’s SBIR/STTR Policy Directives may be found in Federal Register of January 8, 2014 at pg. 1303

  11. The Navy Opportunity Forum is the Navy's Premiere Small Business Technology Event • Forum is culmination of 11 month Transition Assistance Program (TAP) and in its 13th year • Directly supports Legislation requiring DON to develop programs that help firms transition/ commercialize SBIR funded technology • Supports USD AT&L, SECNAV and DON RDA directives and policy memos • Wins documented praise by Congressional Armed Services and Small Business Committees • Documented record of Success of non-SBIR funding from DON PoR’s • The most cost effective method for generating “transition” which requires face to face briefings and discussions

  14. Why SBIR/STTR? • Government’s incentives • Test drive small business capability • Proactive risk reduction • Early/high-risk S&T with SBIR/STTR funding • Competing approaches open up additional technology alternatives • Non-competitive follow-on awards • High level of matching funds • Small Business’ incentives • Largest source of early stage R&D funds for small firms • Company retains data rights for 5 years (DoD) • Builds credibility of company’s research • Follow-on awards are non-competitive

  15. Tips for Succeeding with Navy SBIR/STTR Just getting started? • Research topics consistent with your business strategy • Current and past solicitations identify Navy technology needs • Know Navy structure • Submit proposals for problems you can solve • Prepare to be innovative Already have a Phase I? • Know your target platform/system for insertion • Build strategic partnerships (Primes, Universities, Acquisition Program Managers-Tech Directors-Requirements Officers) • Plan commercialization path early with TPOC
