About this award

The Defense Health Agency has awarded a $249,962.26 Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I contract to Applied Nanotech, Inc., doing business as Fepet, for the development of MicroBeID, a point-of-care, electronics-free molecular diagnostic platform for microbial detection. The contract, issued as a firm fixed-price purchase order with an ultimate completion date of March 21, 2026, is designated as a total small business set-aside and supports medical research and development initiatives. Applied Nanotech, Inc., a woman-owned small business headquartered in Austin, Texas, was selected based on its established expertise in advanced technological innovation and prior success in securing federal research funding through SBIR and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs.

Applied Nanotech brings substantial credentials to this engagement, with a track record of delivering sophisticated research and development services to defense and federal agencies since its registration in SAM.gov in 2002. The company's experience spans flexible printed electronics, advanced manufacturing techniques, and sensor development—technical capabilities directly relevant to the development of innovative diagnostic platforms. Through this SBIR Phase I award, the company will conduct preliminary feasibility and technical merit assessment of the MicroBeID platform, which represents a significant advancement in portable molecular diagnostics for medical and defense applications.
