About this award
The U.S. Army awarded a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract to Epirus, Inc., a California-based technology company specializing in directed energy systems and electromagnetic technologies for defense applications. The $249,886.19 firm fixed price contract, designated as a total small business set-aside, is scheduled for completion by July 21, 2025. Epirus will perform the work at its facility in Torrance, California. This Phase I award represents the initial stage of the SBIR program, which supports small businesses in developing innovative technological solutions aligned with Department of Defense research priorities.
Epirus has established itself as a key innovator in the directed energy sector through multiple prior SBIR engagements with the Army, Air Force, Navy, and Special Operations Command, as well as significant indefinite delivery vehicle contracts including an $87.2 million Other Transaction agreement with the Army for software-defined directed energy platforms. The company's focus on high-power microwave systems, counter-unmanned aerial systems, and electromagnetic pulse technologies positions it well within the Army's modernization strategy. The Phase I award will likely explore the technical feasibility and scientific merit of a proposed innovation before potential advancement to subsequent phases of the SBIR program.
