org for membership information. The Department of War (DOW) has developed advanced near-hypersonic and hypersonic systems; however, significant challenges in affordability and scalable production capacity exist. MACH-XL serves as a pathfinder initiative to address affordability and producibility challenges by conducting focused testing and demonstrations.
Through early validation and prototyping, it aims to identify cost-effective solutions, reduce risk in production approaches, and establish a foundation for scalable, manufacturable designs. MACH-XL is specifically pursuing solutions for Near-Hypersonic & Hypersonic all-up-rounds (AURs) (Task Area 1) and Flexible Launcher Platforms (Task Area 2). **Please visit the S2MARTS website at**https://s2marts.

MTO opened six SBIR topics on May 27 with a single June 24 close: nanopore proteomics, compact wideband tunable RF filters, 800°C-rated integrated circuits, passive thermal spreaders, radiation-hardened codesign, and low-resource computing for legacy hardware reuse. Together they map the office's bet on where U.S. semiconductor advantage gets reasserted — and which small businesses get to ride along.
Read articleOn June 8, HHS and GSA established a new Multiple Award Schedule Special Item Number for grants management technology — the first government-wide procurement vehicle for modern grants software. The SIN covers four functional subgroups, sits under Executive Order 14332, and ties to the $1.2 trillion in annual federal grant awards now flowing through 29 agencies. Here is what the move signals for grantees, grants management vendors, and the long arc of federal grants modernization.
Read articleThe Department of the Navy pre-released FY26 Release 3 SBIR/STTR on June 3, 2026 — 12 BAA topics and one Commercial Solutions Opening for Counter-Unmanned Air Systems. Topics span adaptive sensor management, anomalous behavior detection, satellite imagery optimization, real-time zero-trust data for combat systems, and gun weapon systems modernization. Technical questions cut off June 23. Proposals open June 24 and close July 22. NAVAIR and NAVSEA co-host a Counter-UAS webinar June 16. Phase I funding tops out at $315,000. The CSO open topic for AI-powered drone defense is the structural news: it's the first time NAVAIR has used a CSO vehicle to fund counter-drone work outside the conventional Phase I/II structure, and it changes how small businesses can engage with the Navy's most urgent capability gap.
