SBIR at the Department of Defense

NATIONAL ACADEMY PRESS - Organizational Body;

Adopting several recommendations from a National Research Council (NRC) study of the SBIR program, Congress reauthorized the program in December 2011 for a further 6 years. In addition, Congress called for further studies by the NRC. In turn, the Department of Defense (DoD) Office of Small Business requested the NRC to provide a subsequent round of analysis, focused on operational questions with a view to identifying further improvements in the program. This study therefore seeks to understand how the DoD SBIR program could work better in addressing the congressional objectives for the SBIR program to stimulate technological innovation, use small businesses to meet federal R&D needs, foster and encourage the participation of socially and economically disadvantaged small businesses, and increase the private sector commercialization of innovations derived from federal R&D. Drawing on the methodology developed in its previous study, an ad hoc NRC committee issued a revised survey of SBIR companies, revisited some case studies and developed new ones, and interviewed agency managers and other stakeholders to provide a second snapshot of the program’s progress toward achieving its legislative goals.
