If successfully developed, the technology will have both Army/Department of Defense relevance and sufficient potential commercial applications to support a viable production base. The offeror must bear at least 50% of the cost of the proposed effort. It is anticipated that the offeror's share wiil be $1M or higher. Proposals that involve either studies, capitalization of facilities, fee for service testing or technology transfer organizations, or final product development beyond the stage of product prototype or feasibility demonstration are outside the scope of the competition and will not be acceptable.
