HOW WE INNOVATE

PARTNER WITH US

The Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center is uniquely equipped to take on risk for the Army thanks to our in-house expertise and numerous partnerships. We work closely with industry, academia, and other DoD and national research organizations to influence research investments and adopt, adapt and mature new scientific breakthroughs. 

PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Our role is to find solutions and deliver capabilities for the Soldier that span the entire domain of C5ISR – Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance – networks and systems regardless of platform. To do that, our scientists and engineers leverage their expertise and an infrastructure of advanced laboratories and facilities to develop those solutions in-house or to collaborate a wide range of expert partners in government, industry and academia – foreign and domestic – that offer promising technologies. 

Small Business
The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs are highly competitive programs that encourage domestic small businesses to engage in Federal Research/Research and Development (R/R&D) with the potential for commercialization.
RESEARCH AND DEVLOPMENT PARTNERSHIPS

A Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (CRADA) is a mechanism for transferring commercially useful technologies from federal laboratories to the private sector by establishing partnership with industry and academia to leverage expertise and facilities.

LABORATORY ACCESS

Defense Department laboratories may be made available to any person or entity (including universities), on a reimbursable basis, laboratory services for the testing of materials, equipment, models, computer software, and other item.
