[Briefly describe the supplies/services required to meet the agency’s needs. State the estimated value, inclusive of all options.]
NOTE (delete after reading): This action must clearly demonstrate that the Phase III work derives from, extends, or completes efforts performed under Phase I and Phase II.
4. Identification of Statutory Authority.
10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(5), as implemented by FAR 6.302-5: Authorized or Required by Statute.
15 U.S.C. 638(r)(1) states:
“In the case of a small business concern that is awarded a funding agreement for Phase II of an SBIR or STTR program, a Federal agency may enter into a Phase III agreement with that business concern for additional work to be performed during or after the Phase II period. “
Furthermore, 15 U.S.C. 638(r)(4) states:
“To the greatest extent practicable, Federal agencies and Federal prime contractors shall issue Phase III awards relating to technology, including sole source awards, to the SBIR and STTR award recipients that developed the technology.”
5. Demonstration that Proposed Contractor’s Unique Qualifications or Nature of Acquisition Requires Use of Authority Cited.
The nature of the acquisition requires the use of the authority cited. The SBIR/STTR Programs are structured in three phases. Phase I (project feasibility) determines the scientific, technical and commercial merit and feasibility of the ideas submitted. Phase II (project development to prototype) is the major research and development effort, funding the prototyping and demonstration of the most promising Phase I projects. Phase III (commercialization) is the ultimate goal of the SBIR/STTR Programs. Because the Phase III work derives from, extends, or completes efforts performed under Phase I and Phase II, use of the authority cited is required.
6. Description of Efforts Made to Ensure Offerors Were Solicited From as Many Potential Sources as Practicable/ Public Notification through Government Point of Entry (GPE).

8. Description of Market Research or Statement of the Reason Market Research was not Conducted.
FAR 10.001(a)(2) indicates that market research appropriate to the circumstances must be conducted. SBIR Phase III procurements are such that traditional market research to identify alternative sources is generally unnecessary. As described above, the Phase III work derives from, extends, or completes efforts performed under Phase I and Phase II.
NOTE (delete after reading): Notwithstanding the statement above, market research may be performed if appropriate. If any market research was performed, describe in this section.
9. Any Other Supporting Facts.
Not applicable.

10. Listing of Interested Sources.


Not applicable.

The appropriate approval authorities for your action may be different than this template. See FAR 6.304, DFARS 206.304, NMCARS 5206.304, and local procedures for further guidance.
