Revised Process for SBIR/STTR Life Cycle Certifications

Effective January 1, 2019, NIH will require SBIR/STTR grant recipients to submit the Life Cycle Certifications within the I-RPPR and the F-RPPR.

Reinstatement of NIH SBIR Direct-to-Phase II Authority and Associated Updates to NIH SBIR Omnibus Solicitations

A ‘Direct-to-Phase II’ SBIR award is a Phase II award issued to a small business that did not receive a Phase I award for that research/research & development. Recent legislation has re-instated this SBIR Direct Phase II provision through Fiscal Year 2022 and NIH is re-implementing the SBIR Direct-to-Phase II program. The prior program had specific SBIR Direct-to-Phase II funding opportunity announcements (FOAs). These will not be needed now.
