  1. Overview of NASA's SBIR & STTR Programs Lynn Garrison MSFC SBIR Program Manager

  2. NASA’s Mission To understand and protect our home planet To explore the Universe and Search for Life To Inspire the Next Generation of Explorers

  3. NASA’s Mission Directorates VISION MISSION Mission Directorates To improve life here, To extend life to there, To find life beyond • To Understand and Protect Our Home Planet • To explore the Universe and Search for Life • To Inspire the Next Generation of Explorers Exploration Systems Space Operations Science Aeronautics Research SBIR and STTR Research Topics Support NASA’s Technology Priorities - Enabling NASA’S Future Through the Innovation of Small Business

  4. Research Topics Exploration Systems & Space Operations: • Self Sufficient Space Systems • Space Utilities and Power • Habitation, Bioastronautics and Extravehicular Activity • Space Assembly, Maintenance and Servicing • Surface Exploration and Expeditions • Space Transportation • Information and Communication • Systems Integration, Analysis, Concepts and Modeling • Exploration Systems & Space Operations: • Cross-disciplinary Physical Sciences • Fundamental Space Biology • Biomedical And Human Support Research • Partnerships and Market-Driven Research • Flight Payload Technologies and Outreach

  5. Research Topics Space Science: • Sun Earth Connection • Structure and Evolution of the Universe • Astronomical Search for Origins • Exploration of the Solar System • Mars Exploration Earth Science: Instruments for Earth Science Measurements Platform Technologies for Earth Science Advanced Information Systems Technology for Earth Science Applying Earth Science Measurements Aeronautics: • Aviation Safety and Security • Vehicle Systems • Airspace Systems

  6. Budget, Award Type and Amount

  7. Solicitation Dates NASA Will Issue Concurrent SBIR & STTR Solicitations on July 7, 2005 Closing Date: September 7, 2005

  8. Proposal Evaluation Process • Evaluations are performed by NASA scientists and engineers to determine the merit of a proposal • A proposal that is recommended for award will be ranked relative to all other recommended proposals • All firms will receive a debriefing automatically via email • Evaluation factors: • Scientific/Technical Merit and Feasibility • Experience, Qualifications and Facilities • Effectiveness of the Proposed Work Plan • Commercial Potential

  9. Selection Statistics • SBIR: • 2,695 proposals were received from 1,099 firms located in 48 states and DC • 939 proposals recommended • 310 selections were made (12%) • STTR: • 179 proposals were received from 157 firms • located in 37 states • 97 proposals recommended • 45 selections were made (25%) • Approximately 40% of the phase 1 contracts are selected for phase 2

  10. What’s New and Unique? • NASA manages it’s SBIR and STTR programs via the NASA SBIR Electronic Handbook (EHB) • All proposals are submitted electronically • Contract administration is managed via the SBIR EHB • Access to the EHB is directly from the NASA SBIR website http://sbir.nasa.gov • NASA is the prime customer for SBIR and STTR developed technologies • Emphasis is placed on phase 3 contracting • NASA has issued many multi-million dollar Phase 3 following contracts; the largest being for $57M
