SBA Proposes Commercial Revenue Thresholds for High-Volume SBIR/STTR Firms
The SBA proposal would require firms with more than 25 combined SBIR/STTR Phase II awards in the prior five completed fiscal years to meet revenue thresholds of 33% for FY2027 and 50% for FY2028 from sources outside Phase I and II awards. Firms that fall short could be barred from new Phase I or Direct-to-Phase-II proposals for one year; the comment period has closed, but the proposal is not confirmed as final or in force.
