Starting April 2025, the Predictive Simulation of Injury Progression solicitation will provide Army medics a deeper understanding of how treatment decisions influence long-term recovery.

(U.S. Army) Army SBIR|STTR Launches $2M Funding Opportunity for Low-Altitude sUAS Detection The U.S. Army introduced a new sensor funding opportunity through its Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer (SBIR|STTR) Program.

Beginning in April 2025, the Low-Altitude Passive Detection System solicitation will help Soldiers passively detect and identify small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) at low altitudes and varying velocities. (U.S. Army) Army SBIR|STTR launches $1.

5M wearable explosive monitoring funding opportunity The U.S. Army released a new funding opportunity for immersive, wearable and sensor technologies through its Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer Program.

Starting in March 2025, the Wearable Sensors to Monitor Environmental Occupational Impacts to Brain Health solicitation will improve warfighter safety by measuring exposure to explosive blasts when operating weapons systems.

(U.S. Army) Army SBIR|STTR unveils $250K AI/ML decision-support funding opportunity The U.S. Army introduced a new funding opportunity for artificial intelligence and machine learning through its Small Business Innovation Research and Small Business Technology Transfer Program.

Starting in March 2025, the Context-Aware Decision Support solicitation will enhance commanders’ decision-making capabilities by using cutting-edge innovations from the private sector.

(U.S. Army) Army SBIR|STTR launches new AI/ML funding opportunity in December 2024 Led by the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology, the U.S. Army Small Business Innovation Research and the Small Business Technology Transfer Programs selected 60 businesses to develop solutions prioritizing contested logistics, sustainment and sensors.

(U.S. Army) Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technology ASA(ALT) releases contract opportunities on an ad-hoc basis to meet Army research and development needs. Army Futures Command (AFC) releases topics during three specific solicitation periods throughout the fiscal year to address the Army’s current and anticipated war-fighting technology needs.

Army STTR follows AFC’s topic release schedule but partners with a university, federally funded research and development center, or a qualified non-profit research institution as part of their contract. Is the opportunity to establish the scientific, technical, commercial merit and feasibility of your proposed innovation. Is focused on the development, demonstration and delivery of your innovation from Phase I.

Represents the commercialization phase of the program in which the company can market their products or services developed in Phase II, either to the government or in the commercial sector. Allows small businesses to submit to Direct to Phase II applications if they performed the Phase I research through other funding sources. Provides funding to projects that require additional funding during their open Phase II contract.

A Phase II Awardee may receive one additional, sequential Phase II award to continue the work of an initial Phase II award. The sequential Phase II award has the same guideline amounts and limits as an initial Phase II award.
