DON SBIR/STTR is an R&D program meeting critical Naval acquisition program and operational needs – a warfighter focus. We invest in small business, advocate for Naval technology customers, manage to help ensure transition, and track relevant data from Topic development through project expiration.
The ultimate measure of success of any Navy SBIR/STTR project is the insertion of the technology into use by the fleet or forces.

Phase III – can occur anytime after Phase I and is funded with non-SBIR $
NOTE: A Phase II.5 is a Requirements Driven process; i.e., based upon Acquisition program needs. TTP: Technology Transition Plan
TTA: Technology Transition Agreement

Updated: 7 May 2013
• Transition effort beyond initial Phase II• DoN sets aside 20% of SBIR funds for funding
these efforts• Generally falls into 3 categories:
• Enhancements - minimum of 1:1 concurrent matching, usually limited to $500K
• Continued Development (CD)- requires signed TTP/TTA, no matching required, limited to $750K
• Advanced Technology (AT)- usually requires signed TTP/TTA, 1:1 matching required may be concurrent or out-year, limited to $1.5M or balance of $1.5M if prior CD or Enhancement

Overview of Phase II.5
5
• Firm must be prior recipient of a Phase II contract under the topic ( if only recipient of Phase I then award is a Phase II not II.5).
• Firms must meet Phase II eligibility requirements (size, ownership, % of work performed etc.) to be considered for Phase II.5.
• In order to participate in Phase II.5, firms must be invited and selected by a Navy SYSCOM Transition manager. Some SYSCOMs review all their current portfolio for potential candidates others allow TPOCs to nominate specific projects.
• The project must address a high priority Navy need. Project relevance to a planned or existing Acquisition Program, Future Naval Capability, or documented Technology Gap which must be identified in the TTP/TTA.
• Must comply with any/all matching funds requirements and SBIR/STTR funding limits for Phase II.5.
