Army! Small business big business is in the Department of the Army leads the federal government in small business contracting. Of the $88.71 billion in federal contracts awarded to small businesses in FY2015, $17.48 billion or 19.70 percent came out of Army, more than any other federal agency or military service. That $17.48 billion made up 31.60 percent of total Army contracts. This percentage has grown steadily over the last few years, up from 18.37 percent in FY2008. FY2014 marked the first time that Army surpassed all of its socioeconomic goals. Although the numbers have not yet been finalized, we are on track surpass them again in FY2015. 3

Opportunities for HBCU/MIs Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR)/Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) contracts The Army Mentor-Protégé Program Army Material Command (AMC) Historically Black Colleges, Universities and Minority Institutions Program 1.SBIR/STTR Programs -Congress established the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program in 1982 to fund research and development (R&D) by U.S. owned and operated businesses of less than 500 employees. The SBIR Program is the nation's largest source of early-stage technology financing. -Congress established the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program in 1992. Similar in structure to SBIR, STTR provides up to $850,000 in early-stage R&D funding directly to small companies working cooperatively with researchers at universities and other research institutions. 2.The purpose of the Mentor-Protégé Program is to provide incentives for DoD contractors to assist protege firms in enhancing their capabilities and to increase participation of such firms in Government and commercial contracts. The Army Mentor-Protégé Program seeks mentors that have an active involvement of HBCUs/MIs with a minimum subcontracting goal of 5%. Additional consideration will be given to proposals that demonstrate the mentor significantly exceeding the HBCU/MI 5% subcontracting goal. 3. Army Material Command (AMC) Historically Black Colleges, Universities and Minority Institutions Program has a new direction and new support. This culturally diverse program seeks to inform and inspire the Army acquisition or requirements community to always consider the capabilities of HBCUs/MIs in all higher education acquisitions. The program also assists HBCUs/MIs to develop their faculties and students’ business, engineering and science talents.

Army has budgeted $150 million FY16 for SBIR contracts and $21 million for STTR contracts FY16. As you can see, the Army has a significant budget dedicated to these contracts. These are dollars that you as institutions have access to and gives you monies in addition to grants. Figures are in millions

Why Small Businesses Participate 1. Largest source of Federal R&D funds for small businesses 5. Follow-on Phase III awards can be sole sourced 2. SBIR invests more than VC community in pre-seed and early stage technology 6. Company may maintain ownership of equipment purchased under Phase I and II 7. Builds credibility of company’s research while learning government contracting processes to become a supplier 3. No dilution of equity 4. Company retains data rights for 4 years (5 years in DoD) 8. State economic development programs, angels, and VC use SBIR as a pre-qualifier for their investment
How DoD Benefits from SBIR/STTR Safe way to try out high-risk R&D Small businesses are often more cost effective and innovative than large primes (i.e., agile, niche) Test drive new companies while they establish a track record Allows Acquisition programs to establish 2nd source/method to augment ongoing programs (risk management)
