    DOD 2003.1 SBIR Solicitation: Automatic Stay dispute resolved
      Bid Protests were filed following serious upload problems experienced by applicants to the DOD 2003.1 SBIR Solicitation in mid-January 2003. The imposed condition of Automatic Stay which would have delayed any action on received proposals for many months was rescinded when DOD re-opened proposal submission for the period March 4-25, 2003.
        Analysis of data collected on this site from hundreds of firms on all sides of this issue was a major factor in that decision.
    "Examining Economic Impact of SBIR-STTR" Event (March 17-18, 2004 Capitol Hill)


    The Special Projects area of this site is set up to allow newcomers to get a flavor for what we do but primarily to enable conduct and support of events and issue sessions that are in various ways are "bounded". These efforts are
    of SBIR Community general interest e.g. the very popular I have an SBIR Question
    and/or are time-sensitive.
        Recently, for example, in a rapidly contructed, special area, this site has been where most of the DOD-active SBIR Community got involved and/or kept current on matters related to resolution of the DOD 2003.1 SBIR Solicitation impasse..
        There can be little doubt that what happened here was a major factor in achieving timely resolution to that seriously sticky problem. For those of you not affected by the DOD issue, thank you for your patience and support.
    Twenty Years of SBIR Achievement
    The re-opening of the DOD SBIR 2003.1 solicitation allows us to get back to our current Special Project. This is the publication of the first-of-its-kind 20th Anniversary SBIR-STTR Awardees Directory.
    The time out to address the DOD problem does mean that we must delay publication of the Directory from this Spring to later in the year. All other elements of the project will remain as planned.
    March 28, 2003 Update:
    It took longer than intended to get back on track but the task of preparing for publication of the Directory has moved back to center stage.
          We will be contacting directly many of you in the

  • special awardee groupings of focus (major winners, publicly traded, strong IP based firms etc)
  • those of you providing SBIR support services in the states
  • financial community and professional service providers
  • large firm collaborators etc.

    If you are SBIR-involved in whatever capacity, you probably need to be in this Directory!
          If you haven't heard from us soon and think you should have and/or want to Keep Your Company Out In Front, you are encouraged to take the initiative to contact Ann Eskesen.
          In the meantime, get a flavor of what this is all about from the two-pager available here - pdf format or online view Front Page OR Back Page.
