About this award

The Air Force Research Laboratory awarded a $1.8M Small Business Innovation Research Phase II contract to Telemetrak, Inc., an Oakland, California-based small disadvantaged business and SBA-certified HUBZone firm. Designated as a total small business set-aside, the contract pursues the development of new integrated air traffic control capabilities, with an ultimate completion date of December 15, 2027. The firm-fixed-price purchase order, awarded on September 17, 2025, builds upon Telemetrak's established track record of delivering advanced technological prototypes for aerospace and defense applications through prior SBIR and Small Business Technology Transfer engagements with AFRL, which have ranged in value from $50K to $1.8M and focused on areas including unmanned aircraft system capabilities, asset tracking systems, and equipment detection technologies.

Telemetrak's selection reflects its demonstrated capability to develop innovative research solutions for Air Force operational needs. As a registered SAM.gov vendor since April 2020, the company has maintained exclusive focus on federal research and development programs, particularly within AFRL's innovation portfolio. The Phase II award progression indicates successful completion of an earlier Phase I effort and represents advancement toward potential commercialization of the integrated air traffic control technology, positioning the firm to deliver mission-critical capabilities for the Air Force's aviation operations and small unmanned aircraft systems integration initiatives.
