About this award

Aptima Inc., a small business specializing in human-centered research and development, was awarded a Phase III Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract by the Defense Contract Management Agency valued at $524,606. The effort focuses on validation and expansion of a digital peer assessment tool, with performance taking place in Woburn, Massachusetts. The contract, awarded on September 27, 2021, operated under a cost-plus-fixed-fee pricing structure and was completed by January 25, 2024. No small business set-aside designation was applied to this award, despite the contractor's small business status.

This Phase III SBIR contract represents the commercialization phase of the SBIR program, wherein Aptima leveraged prior research and development to advance and validate an existing digital assessment capability. The company's extensive experience in cognitive modeling, artificial intelligence, and performance analytics—demonstrated through its significant portfolio of defense research contracts with agencies including the Air Force Research Laboratory, DARPA, and Naval Air Systems Command—positions it well for this type of technology validation and expansion effort. The contract's delivery order structure provides flexibility in resource allocation while the fixed fee component establishes cost predictability for the government.
