Register today to learn about two key programs that
provide YOU the opportunity to pursue work with
the US Department of Defense!
We have partnered with BBCetc to provide expert insights and actionable information.
The Department of Defense (DOD) Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs offer a wide range of opportunities for small firms to address military needs in just about every technology area from software to training systems, from medical products to air, land, and sea platforms. Since the DoD is a procuring agency, companies have the opportunity to solve problems identified by the SBIR/STTR solicitations and ultimately sell products to the Defense Department. To success in pursuing these programs, you need to understand how the DOD does business and its unique language and acronyms.
This webinar will provide a brief look at how SBIR/STTR projects fit into the DoD’s procurement process, and how you can “speak their language” to improve your chances of winning Phase I and Phase II contract awards.
You’ll Learn:
• Which DOD components participate in the SBIR/STTR programs
• How the components differ
• How to find open Broad Agency Announcements (BAAs) and deadlines
• Tips to be competitive and more!
