About this award
Kalogon, Inc., a small business manufacturer based in Melbourne, Florida, was awarded a $1.09M Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase II contract by Air Combat Command on August 2, 2024. The contract, designated as a total small business set-aside with firm fixed price terms, funds the development of an advanced seat cushion designed to improve comfort and performance for the E-4B aircraft, a critical airborne command post platform used by the U.S. Air Force. Work under this purchase order is scheduled for completion by January 8, 2026, and will be performed at Kalogon's Melbourne, Florida facility.
Kalogon specializes in innovative smart cushion technologies that enhance user comfort and reduce fatigue in military aviation and other applications. The company has established a track record in SBIR contracting with the Air Force, having secured multiple Phase II awards totaling over $4.2 million for developing adaptive seat cushion technologies for aircraft platforms including the E-4B and B-52. The proposed E-4B seat cushion represents an extension of this core competency, leveraging the company's expertise in dynamic pressure redistribution and adaptive technologies to address aircrew endurance requirements for extended missions aboard the airborne command post.
