The Navys SBIR program is a mission-oriented program that integrates the needs and requirements of the Navys
Fleet through R&D topics that have dual-use potential, but primarily address the needs of the Navy. Companies are
encouraged to address the manufacturing needs of the Defense Sector in their proposals. Information on the Navy
SBIR Program can be found on the Navy SBIR website at
http://www.onr.navy.mil/sbir
. Additional information
pertaining to the Department of the Navys mission can be obtained by viewing the website at
http://www.navy.mil
.

PHASE I GUIDELINES

Follow the instructions in the DoD Program Solicitation at
www.dodsbir.net/solicitation
for program requirements
and proposal submission. It is recommended that cost estimates include travel to the sponsoring activitys facility at
the end of the phase I. The Navy encourages proposers to include, within the 25 page limit, an option which furthers
the effort and will bridge the funding gap between Phase I and the Phase II start. Phase I options are typically
exercised upon the decision to fund the Phase II. For NAVAIR topics N06-109 thru N06-126 the base amount
should not exceed $80,000 and 6 months; the option should not exceed $70,000 and 6 months. For all other Navy
topics the base effort should not exceed $70,000 and 6 months; the option should not exceed $30,000 and 3 months.
PROPOSALS THAT HAVE A HIGHER DOLLAR AMOUNT THAN ALLOWED FOR THAT TOPIC
WILL BE CONSIDERED NON-RESPONSIVE.

The Navy will evaluate and select Phase I proposals using the evaluation criteria in section 4.2 of the DoD
solicitation in descending order of importance with technical merit being most important, followed by the
qualifications, and followed by commercialization potential. Due to limited funding, the Navy reserves the right to
limit awards under any topic and only proposals considered to be of superior quality will be funded.

One week after solicitation closing, email notifications that proposals have been received and processed for
evaluation will be sent. Consequently, e-mail addresses on the proposal coversheets must be correct

The Navy typically awards a firm fixed price contract or a small purchase agreement for Phase I.

PHASE I SUMMARY REPORT

In addition to the final report required in the funding agreement, all awardees must electronically submit a non-
proprietary summary of that report through the Navy SBIR website. Following the template provided on the site,
submit the summary at:

http://www.onr.navy.mil/sbir, click on Submission, and then click on Submit a Phase I
or II Summary Report. This summary will be publicly accessible via the Navys Search Database. NAVY - 2

NAVY FAST TRACK DATES AND REQUIREMENTS

The Fast Track application must be received by the Navy 150 days from the Phase I award start date. Phase II
Proposal must be submitted within 180 days of the Phase I award start date. Any Fast Track applications or
proposals not meeting these dates may be declined. All Fast Track applications and required information must be
sent to the Technical Point of Contact for the contract and to the appropriate Navy Activity SBIR Program Manager
listed in Table 1 above. The information required by the Navy, is the same as the information required under the
DoD Fast Track described in section 4.5 of this solicitation.

PHASE II GUIDELINES

Phase II proposal submission, other than Fast Track, is by invitation only. If you have been invited, follow the
instructions in the invitation. Each of the Navy Activities has different instructions for Phase II submission.
Visit the website cited in the invitation to get specific guidance before submitting the Phase II proposal.

The Navy will invite, evaluate and select Phase II proposals using the evaluation criteria in section 4.3 of the DoD
solicitation in descending order of importance with technical merit being most important, followed by the
qualifications, and followed by commercialization potential. Due to limited funding, the Navy reserves the right to
limit awards under any topic and only proposals considered to be of superior quality will be funded.


All awardees, during the second year of the Phase II, must attend a one-day Transition Assistance Program (TAP)
meeting. This meeting is typically held in the summer in the Washington, D.C. area. Information can be obtained at
http://www.dawnbreaker.com/navytap
. Awardees will be contacted separately regarding this program. It is
recommended that Phase II cost estimates include travel to Washington, D.C. for this event.

As with the Phase I award, Phase II award winners must electronically submit a Phase II summary through the Navy
SBIR website at the end of their Phase II.

A Navy Activity will not issue a Navy SBIR Phase II award to a company when the elapsed time between the
completion of the Phase I award and the actual Phase II award date is eight (8) months or greater; unless the process
and the award have been formally reviewed and approved by the Navy SBIR Program Office. Also, any SBIR
Phase I contract that has been extended by a no cost extension beyond one year will be ineligible for a Navy SBIR
Phase II award using SBIR funds.

The Navy typically awards a cost plus fixed fee contract or an Other Transaction Agreement for Phase II.

PHASE II ENHANCEMENT

The Navy has adopted a Phase II Enhancement Plan to encourage transition of Navy SBIR funded technology to the
Fleet. Since the Law (PL102-564) permits Phase III awards during Phase II work, the Navy may match on a one-to-
four ratio, SBIR funds to funds that the company obtains from an acquisition program, usually up to $250,000. The
SBIR enhancement funds may only be provided to the existing Phase II contract. If you have questions, please
contact the Navy Activity SBIR Program Manager.


PHASE III

Public Law 106-554 provided for protection of SBIR data rights under SBIR Phase III awards. A Phase III SBIR
award is any contract or grant where the technology is the same as, derived from, or evolved from a Phase I or a
Phase II SBIR/STTR contract and awarded to the company which was awarded the Phase I/II SBIR. This covers
any contract/grant issued as a follow-on Phase III SBIR award or any contract/grant award issued as a result of a
competitive process where the awardee was an SBIR firm that developed the technology as a result of a Phase I or
Phase II SBIR. The Navy will give SBIR Phase III status to any award that falls within the above-mentioned
description. The governments prime contractors and/or their subcontractors shall follow the same guidelines as
above and ensure that companies operating on behalf of the Navy protect rights of the SBIR company.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

The Small Business Administration (SBA) has determined that the Naval Academy, the Naval Post Graduate School
and the other military academies may participate as subcontractors in the SBIR/STTR program, since they are
institutions of higher learning.

Any contractor proposing research that requires human, animal and recombinant DNA use is advised to view
requirements at website
http://www.onr.navy.mil/sci_tech/ahd_usage.asp
. This website provides guidance and notes
approvals that may be required before contract/work may begin.
