5 NIST Program Timeline (tentative) Solicitation Release Date: December 2015 (available at www.nist.gov/sbir & grants.gov) Phase I Proposals Due: February/March 2016 Phase I Awards: May 2016 Phase II Proposals Due:March 2016 Phase II Awards: May 2016 5

6 NIST FY 2015 Subtopics - Category-Theoretic Tools to Support Manufacturing Information Integration - Computer Aided Standards Development - High-Throughput Manufacturing Methods for Engineered MRI Contrast Agents - Laser Power Meter for Manufacturing Application - Optical Microscopy as Applied to Fabrication of Atomic-Scale Devices - Predictive Modeling Tools for Metal-Based Additive Manufacturing - Stroboscopic Method for Dynamic Imaging in a Transmission Electron Microscope - Tuning Germanium Crystal Reflectivity and Mosaic - Large-Area, Uniform Infrared Detector Development for 1 μm to 4.5 μm - A Verifier for Multicore C11 or C++11 Code - Access Control Policy Tool - Analysis and Visualization Tools for Automated Email Abuse Reports - Improving Robustness and Security in Home Routers - Dual Pulse Continuum Laser Source for Time-Domain Coherent Raman Imaging - NIST Tech Transfer 6

7 How to Submit Proposals to NIST - Solicitation available at www.nist.gov/sbir and grants.gov - Read & follow instructions - Ask questions 7

8 Proposal Evaluation - Step 1 Phase I and II Those proposals that pass administrative screening are evaluated by NIST subject-matter experts for: Technical approach & anticipated benefits Adequacy of proposed effort Soundness & technical merit of approach Qualifications of principal/key investigators & staff Commercialization potential 8

9 Proposal Evaluation - Step 2 Those proposals that are highly ranked in Step 1 are evaluated by a NIST-wide panel for (Phase I only): Potential to meet NIST program priorities Economic impact SBIR Program priorities (manufacturing, energy efficiency, minorities, HUBZones, etc. NIST awards cooperative agreements. 9
