About this award
The U.S. Air Force, through Pacific Air Forces, awarded a $1.94 million Firm Fixed Price definitive contract to Picogrid, Inc. on May 23, 2025, for Phase III development of the Dispersed Interoperable Sensor Platform (DISP). This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase III action represents a progression from earlier research phases, tasking the El Segundo, California-based small business with advancing sensor integration and command and control technologies to completion by November 30, 2026. The work will be performed in Nenana, Alaska. Picogrid specializes in developing autonomous systems and unified platforms for connecting sensors and systems across military applications, with significant prior experience supporting the Air Force through various SBIR initiatives and delivery orders under the $950 million Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract.
This contract award carries no set-aside designation beyond the inherent small business SBIR Program structure. The DISP effort aligns with the Air Force's broader strategy to enhance sensor interoperability and distributed command and control capabilities, building on Picogrid's demonstrated technical expertise in integrating advanced sensor technologies and communication systems for military operations. The Phase III contract structure allows the company to transition research into deliverable capabilities for operational use, leveraging its established relationships with Air Force Research Laboratory and other defense stakeholders to mature technologies for tactical edge applications.
