May 18, 2022: DoD begins accepting proposals June 15, 2022: Deadline for receipt of proposals no later than 12:00 p.m. ET Participating DoD Components: Department of the Army (Army) Department of the Navy (Navy) Department of Air Force (Air Force) Chemical and Biological Defense (CBD) Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) Office of the Secretary of Defense – Defense Human Resources Activity (OSD – DHRA) Office of the Secretary of Defense – National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (OSD – NGA) United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) IMPORTANT Deadline for Receipt : Complete proposals must be certified and submitted in DSIP no later than 12:00 PM ET on June 15, 2022 . Proposals submitted after 12:00 p.m. ET will not be evaluated. The final proposal submission includes successful completion of all firm level forms, all required volumes, and electronic corporate official certification. Please plan to submit proposals as early as possible in order to avoid unexpected delays due to high volume of traffic during the final hours before the BAA close. DoD is not responsible for missed proposal submission due to system latency. Classified proposals will not be accepted under the DoD SBIR Program. This BAA and the Defense SBIR/STTR Innovation Portal (DSIP) sites are designed to reduce the time and cost required to prepare a formal proposal. DSIP is the official portal for DoD SBIR/STTR proposal submission. Proposers are required to submit proposals via DSIP; proposals submitted by any other means will be disregarded. Proposers submitting through this site for the first time will be asked to register. Firms are required to register for a Login.gov account and link it to their DSIP account. See section 4.14 for more information regarding registration. The Small Business Administration (SBA), through its SBIR/STTR Policy Directive, purposely departs from normal Government solicitation formats and requirements, thus authorizing agencies to simplify the SBIR/STTR award process and minimize the regulatory burden on small business. Therefore, consistent with the SBA SBIR/STTR Policy Directive, the Department of Defense is soliciting proposals as a Broad Agency Announcement. SBIR/STTR Updates and Notices: To be notified of SBIR/STTR opportunities and to receive e-mail updates on the DoD SBIR and STTR Programs, you are invited to subscribe to our Listserv by visiting https://www.dodsbirsttr.mil/submissions/login and clicking “DSIP Listserv” located under Quick Links. On April 4, 2022, the DUNS Number will be replaced by the Unique Entity ID (SAM) to identify organizations doing business with the Government. If the firm has an entity registration in SAM.gov (even if the registration has expired), a UEI (SAM) has already been assigned. For firms with established DSIP accounts, update the firm profile with the UEI (SAM) as soon as possible. See section 4.15 for more information. Questions: Please refer to the DSIP Customer Support Document for general information regarding the DoD SBIR/STTR process in DSIP. For additional assistance with the DSIP application, please visit the Learning & Support section of the DSIP at https://www.dodsbirsttr.mil/submissions/learning-support/.
