About this award

The Office of Naval Research awarded a $240k Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Phase I contract to Carley Technologies Inc., a woman-owned small business based in Sewickley, Pennsylvania. The firm-fixed-price, definitive contract is set aside for total small business participation and has a completion date of November 2, 2026. Carleytech specializes in research, development, and technical services for federal defense and national security missions, with particular expertise in multimedia analytics, information operations research, and social media analytics to support naval operations and counter adversarial information campaigns.

This Phase I award represents continuation of the Office of Naval Research's relationship with Carleytech, which previously received a $2 million research grant in 2021 to study foreign influence campaigns targeting U.S. military operations. Since 2019, the company has accumulated over $5 million in prime contract awards from the Department of the Navy and Department of the Air Force, delivering capabilities for detecting adversarial misinformation on social media, tracking military assets, and developing countermeasures to information warfare. The SBIR Phase I structure provides an opportunity for the small business to validate the feasibility of an innovative research concept before potential Phase II scale-up.
