[6/17/25] Posting of Navy 25.2 SBIR and 25.B STTR Selections
In order to keep small businesses informed about the Navy's proposal selection status, the Navy posts a list of SBIR/STTR
Selectees
as they are chosen.
[more..]
The list of selections is an ongoing process that may take several weeks to complete. Current selections for Navy 25.2 SBIR and 25.B STTR are now being posted.
A selectee is a company selected for further consideration, meaning that the proposal is of interest, but the final decision and contract negotiation is not complete.
Being listed as a selectee on this website is NOT a notification of contract award.
[10-23-23] Navy's Policy on Selectable, Not Funded Proposals from other Agencies:
[more..]
It is the policy of the Department of the Navy (DON) SBIR/STTR programs to only accept and evaluate proposals received in accordance with the SBIR/STTR Policy Directive (PD):
- In response to stated Agency topics contained in a Phase I [PD .4(a)] or direct to Phase II [PD .4(b)(1)(ii)] solicitation issued by DON
- In response to DON Phase I contract deliverable requirements for merit-based Phase II evaluation [PD .4(b)(4)]
- In response to a Request for Proposal for a sequential Phase II as a follow-on award to a current DON award [PD .4(b)(5)]
- In response to a Request for Proposal for a subsequent Phase II from a firm that has a Phase I award from another agency. [PD .4(b)(7)]
A Selectable, Not Funded proposal from another Agency is not a proposal in response to a DON solicitation nor is it an award that can be leveraged as a sequential or subsequent Phase II.
