New book about small business research proposals
The process companies are required to under-stand and follow to win federal, state and local government contracts is often confusing and unforgiving (Mike Lisagor, GOVPROP.com Chief Knowledge Officer).
Chantilly, Virginia (PRWEB) December 01, 2015
How to Develop a Winning Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Proposal, published by http://www.govprop.com, provides invaluable guidance and examples for developing each section of a typical SBIR proposal. The book was written by two recognized government acquisition experts, Eric Adolphe and Michael Lisagor. It is available on Amazon in paperback ($9.95) and for the Kindle ($4.99).
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program and its sibling, the Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) program, are federal initiatives that provide over $2 billion in grants and contracts each year to small and start-up companies to develop new or enhanced products and services based on advanced technologies. About 40% of the SBIR Phase I awards made each year go to firms with no prior SBIR experience. SBIRs are administered by ten federal agencies for the purpose of helping to provide early-stage Research and Development funding to small technology companies (or individual entrepreneurs who form a company).
