City Innovate announces it has been selected by AFWERX for an SBIR Phase 1, focused on automating the development of complex RFP packages to address the most pressing challenges in the Department of the Air Force (DAF). The Air Force Research Laboratory and AFWERX have partnered to streamline the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) process by accelerating the small business experience through faster proposal to award timelines, changing the pool of potential applicants by expanding opportunities to small business and eliminating bureaucratic overhead by continually implementing process improvement changes in contract execution. The DAF began offering the Open Topic SBIR/STTR program in 2018, which expanded the range of innovations the DAF funded, and on December 14th, 2023, City Innovate started its journey to create and provide innovative capabilities that will strengthen the national defense of the United States of America.
“Our selection by AFWERX is a testament to our commitment to revolutionizing government procurement with Generative AI, aiming to significantly enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of the Department of the Air Force’s operations,” said Jay Nath, co-founder and co-chief executive officer at City Innovate.
