GREAT LAKES SOUND & VIBRATION INC — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: N201-034

GREAT LAKES SOUND & VIBRATION INC — SBIR Phase I award from Department of Defense.

Phase I SBIR feasibility signal

  • Phase I awards fund proof-of-concept work. For capture teams, they mark early interest from Department of Defense in a technical approach.
  • Watch for Phase II follow-ons from the same firm/topic family — that conversion path is where budgets and transition pressure rise.
  • Obligated amount $140,000. Cross-check similar awards in the same agency and technology tags for going-rate context.
  • Topic code N201-034 links this award to a solicitation family — search the same topic stem for incumbents and recompete timing.

Description

Great Lakes Sound and Vibration (GLSV) will develop a concept for an end-to-end design of a reconfigured ADC MK2 that meets the operational requirements of the current device, but only meets the environmental requirements for over-the-side shipboard launch. GLSV’s design strategy will take advantage of the fact that launching the ADC over the side of the ship will subject it to greatly reduced shock loads compared to submarine launch. The ADC will also encounter much lower hydrostatic pressures compared to submarine usage. These reduced environmental requirements will make it feasible to utilize more cost-effective COTS components with lower rated capabilities.
