The system is also to report Phase III designation and use of SBIR funded technology
What the document says“(B) require reporting on whether a contract is designated as a Phase III contract; (C) require reporting on whether non-SBIR contracts and subcontracts are using SBIR- or STTR-funded technology; and”
Subparagraphs (B) and (C) of subsection (b)(2) add two further reporting requirements to the same system. One is whether a contract is designated as a Phase III contract. The other is whether contracts and subcontracts outside the SBIR program are using technology funded by SBIR or STTR.
What the document actually says“(B) require reporting on whether a contract is designated as a Phase III contract; (C) require reporting on whether non-SBIR contracts and subcontracts are using SBIR- or STTR-funded technology; and”
The system must also show which deals are Phase III deals. It must show when other deals use work these programs paid for.
Work paid for by these programs can end up in other contracts. Today that is hard to trace. This is meant to make it show up.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
