About this award
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) awarded a $149,931.59 firm fixed-price purchase order to Banc 3, Inc., a Princeton, New Jersey-based small business, for the Spectrum Monitoring and Awareness in Real-Time (SMART) project. This Phase I Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) award is set aside for total small business participation and is scheduled for completion by October 11, 2026. Banc 3, Inc., which holds multiple socioeconomic designations as a minority-owned and woman-owned small disadvantaged business, will perform the work at its Princeton, New Jersey facility. The company specializes in advanced technological innovations for defense applications, with a demonstrated track record of securing multiple SBIR and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) awards across various Department of Defense agencies.
The SMART project stems from DARPA's Strategic Technology Office broad agency announcement soliciting revolutionary advances in science and systems across multiple technical domains including artificial intelligence, autonomy, communications, and directed energy. The solicitation specifically seeks disruptive technologies that provide new military and national security capabilities rather than evolutionary improvements to existing systems. Banc 3's expertise in developing advanced sensor systems, RF sensing algorithms, and threat detection technologies aligns with DARPA's mission to create proof-of-concept mission systems addressing strategic and tactical complexity in contemporary national security environments. As a Phase I effort, this contract represents an initial investigation into innovative research concepts with potential for further development under subsequent phases.
