The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) actively supports a number of special assistance programs that have been established to ensure equality in Federal procurements. These include the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program. These are managed by the Small Business Support Center within the Contracts Management Office (CMO) at DARPA. Below are links to the latest solicitations and opportunities. All firms are encouraged to become familiar with, and take advantage of, any of the special assistance programs for which they qualify.

PLEASE NOTE: SBIR participants should be aware of the requirement to register in the CENTRAL CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION (CCR) database prior to contract award. To avoid potential delay in contract award, companies are strongly encouraged to register prior to submitting a proposal. You may obtain information by calling 1-888-227-2423 or by visiting the CCR website.
