  1. Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Brief Dr. Sirie Blankenship Sherrilynne Cherry June 12, 2013

  2. Overview • What is AFMS SBIR? • AFMS Biomedical SBIR Organizational Structure • DHP SBIR Program • AFMS Current Topics • Benefits to Participate • DoD Solicitation Schedule • DoDSBIR FY12 Statistics

  3. What is AFMS SBIR? • Established Air Force Medical Service (AFMS) involvement • Identified gap and defined plan in 2008 • First topic submitted by Air Force Medical Support Agency (San Antonio) and approved July 2009; first in history of AFMS • Established Phase I and II management support in July 2009 with no additional resources • Annual topic submissions • Evaluator training • Proposal review and selection • Financial and Contract management • Recurring and scientific reports • PI program management support • Liaison with Air Force Medical Service regulatory bodies

  4. AFMS SBIR Organizational Structure • Program is administered by the AFMS Office of Research Applications and Technology (ORTA) • Program Participants • AFMS topic authors (Government Employee or Military) • Small Business • The AFMS Biomedical SBIR Program is an extension of the Defense Health Program's (DHP) SBIR Program • The DHP SBIR funding comes from the Office of Secretary of Defense Health Affairs, OASD (HA) to the US Army Medical Research & Material Command (USAMRMC) and the money is then transferred to the AFMS, Navy, etc.

  5. DHP SBIR Program • OSD09-H23 Advancements in Retinal Imaging for Diagnosis of Mild Traumatic Brain Injury • 5 Phase I proposals – 3 awards • 2 Phase II invites/proposals – 1 award • Results: • $1,049,808 additional R&D dollars to AFMS • Novel device advancing to Phase III – commercialization

  6. DHP SBIR Program • OSD10-H09 Synthetic Tissue Trainer and 0SD10-H08 Medical Gaming • 46 Phase I proposals – 11awards • 11 Phase II invites/proposals – 3 awards • Results: • $2,976,575 additional R&D dollars to AFMS • Novel training devices advancing to Phase III

  7. DHP SBIR Program • OSD11-H06 Improved Coupling Factor of Personal Cooling Systems • 22 Phase I proposals – 4 awards • 2 Phase II invites/proposals – proposals received 10 Sep 12 • Results: • Estimated $2,599,815 additional R&D dollars to AFMS

  8. AFMS Current Topics • DHP13-013 : A Point-of-Care Device for Diagnosis of Platelet Injury in Trauma Patients • DHP13-014 : Tailored Wound Dressing for the Treatment of Burns • These topics can be viewed at: http://www.acq.osd.mil/osbp/sbir/sb/schedule.shtml • Topic Questions can be asked via the DoD SBIR/STTR SITIS (SBIR/STTR Interactive Topic Information System) located at http://www.dodsbir.net/sitis/

  9. Benefits to Participate • Small Business: • Largest source of early stage R&D funds for small business • No strings attached - company retains data rights for 4 years (5 for DoD) • Follow on awards are made in a non-competitive way • Builds credibility of company’s research • Company can maintain ownership of equipment purchased under Phase I and II • Government: • Safe way to try out high-risk R&D • Small business are often more cost effective and innovative then large primes (i.e. agile, niche) • Helps new companies establish a track record with the government (test drive) • Allows program managers to establish 2nd source/method for R&D/equipment and augment their ongoing programs (risk management)

  10. DOD Solicitation Schedule • Currently DHP SBIR program participates in the DOD SBIR 2013.2 solicitation schedule. • The DHP SBIR program will be moving to the 2014.1 solicitation schedule. Solicitation will be announced in June 2013.
