D Annual Program Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) The Defense Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program’s objectives include stimulating technological innovation, strengthening the role of small business to meet DoD research and development (R&D) needs, fostering and encouraging minority and disadvantaged persons’ participation in technological innovation, and increasing the commercial application of DoD-supported research or R&D results.
DoD invites proposing SBCs with the capability to conduct R&D and commercialize the results in any of the defense-related topic areas described in this STTR Program BAA to submit proposals. The STTR Program, although modeled substantially after the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program, is a separate program and is separately financed.
Subject to availability of funds, DoD Components will support high quality cooperative research and development proposals of innovative concepts to solve the listed defense-related scientific or engineering problems, especially those concepts that also have high potential for commercialization in the private sector.
Partnerships between small businesses and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) or Minority Institutions (MIs) are encouraged, although no special preference will be given to STTR proposals from such proposers. DoD Services and Components may elect to release topics under this BAA once a month throughout fiscal year 2025.
New research topics will pre-release on the first Wednesday of each month, based on the schedule posted on https://www. dodsbirsttr. mil/submissions/login.
Proposers are encouraged to thoroughly review the DoD Program BAA and register for the DSIP Listserv to remain apprised of important programmatic and contractual changes. •The full DoD Program BAA is available on DSIP at https://www. dodsbirsttr.

The memorandum of agreement was signed August 4 and 5, disclosed by House appropriators on September 3, and runs through 2036. It names no dollar figure. Here is what is actually established, what is still speculation, and what researchers holding or planning NIAID biodefense awards should do before September 30.

Round one closed July 8. The arithmetic across both windows accounts for nearly the entire FY26 appropriation — which tells you what kind of second chance this is.
Read articleThe Department's FY26 SBIR/STTR Release 3 opened June 24 with roughly 37 topics across DARPA, the Navy, the Air Force, and the defense components, all closing July 22. The compressed four-week window is unforgiving, but the bigger mistake founders make is treating every component the same. Here is how to read the release, the eligibility rules that disqualify good companies, and why the component you target matters more than the topic you pick.
