This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II effort, which represents a total small business set-aside, will continue development of tools and methodologies to facilitate the automated migration of legacy C++ codebases to the Rust programming language. The contract carries a ceiling value of $1,499,786 with cost-plus-no-fee pricing and is scheduled for completion by September 16, 2026. Performance will be conducted at GrammarTech's Ithaca, New York facility.
The CRAM Phase II award builds on GrammarTech's established expertise in software analysis, static and dynamic analysis, and programming language migration capabilities. DARPA's interest in advancing C++ to Rust migration aligns with broader Department of Defense cybersecurity and software assurance objectives, as Rust offers enhanced memory safety features critical for defense applications. GrammarTech's demonstrated track record in SBIR awards and software development tools positions the company to deliver advanced automated migration capabilities that address the substantial technical challenges inherent in converting large-scale legacy codebases while maintaining functional equivalence and security properties.
