DoD BAA/Solicitation Changes:
The Small Business Administration, through its #SBIR/#STTR Policy Directive, purposely departs from normal Government solicitation formats and requirements and authorizes agencies to simplify the SBIR/STTR award process and minimize the regulatory burden on small businesses. Therefore, consistent with the SBA Policy Directive, the Department of Defense is soliciting #SBIR 17.1 and #STTR 17.
