Frequently Asked Questions

Federal R&D contracts cover basic and applied research, prototype development, laboratory testing, scientific studies, and technology demonstrations. Agencies like DoD, NIH, DOE, and NASA are major R&D funders.

Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs provide phased funding for small businesses to conduct R&D. Phase I awards up to $275,000 for feasibility studies; Phase II awards up to $1.5 million for development.

Requirements include laboratory accreditation (ISO 17025), research staff with advanced degrees, facility clearances for classified work, published research credentials, and specialized equipment capabilities.

Federal R&D typically involves more reporting requirements, government rights to intellectual property (depending on contract type), security requirements, and longer evaluation periods. Understanding FAR clauses on data rights is essential.
