Excerpt

This document provides an initial version of the methodological approaches to be taken in the Congressionally-mandated study of the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program at the five agencies accounting for 96 percent of the SBIR program expenditures. The proposed methodology draws extensively on the methodologies developed for the review of the previous National Research Council (NRC) assessment of the SBIR at the Department of Defense, SBIR: An Assessment of the Department of Defense Fast Track Initiative.
