WASHINGTON — The U.S. Army invested $50 million in small and nontraditional businesses to develop a variety of artificial intelligence and machine learning solutions under its AI/ML open-topic solicitation.
Released in December 2022, the U.S. Army Small Business Innovation Research Program’s solicitation sought to enhance the Army’s operational capabilities and address broader national security efforts by tackling critical information gaps via AI technologies. With the help of industry, the Army prioritized the development of solutions ranging from radio-frequency identification to language translation.
During the Phase I performance period, 39 small and nontraditional vendors delivered concepts within these priority areas that highlighted their technologies’ commercial viability and technical feasibility. Now the Army will fund 26 of the selected businesses to a total of nearly $50 million to transform their concepts into prototypes ready for demonstration.
The Army SBIR Program offers Phase I contract opportunities to small and nontraditional vendors exhibiting commercial viability, feasibility and technical merit. The program provides Phase II and Direct to Phase II contracts to vendors with mature technologies capable of gaining increased federal support and solving Army needs.
Vendors receive access to technical, acquisition and operational Army experts. These specialists offer information on the Army’s critical needs while providing guidance from within the Army research and development ecosystem. Selectees capitalize on this by collaborating with technical points of contact that serve as a resource for vendors as they mature their technologies for insertion into Army acquisition programs.
The Army SBIR Program releases contract opportunities on a rolling basis to respond to current and anticipated Soldier technology needs. The program will continue to promote new contract releases via topic announcements and email. We encourage you to follow U.S. Army SBIR|STTR on Facebook, X (formerly Twitter) and LinkedIn for the latest program announcements, updates and solicitation opportunities.
The Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics and Technology leverages technologies and capabilities to provide U.S. Soldiers a decisive advantage in any environment by developing, acquiring, fielding and sustaining the world’s finest equipment and services.

The demands of the jungle and airborne operational environments illuminated a key problem for modern light infantry. Because of the size of the large ruck frame, soldiers who used to patrol with their battle load accessible have had to put this load in a FLC or TAPS leaving it with their plate carrier inside their ruck while conducting the approach march with just a rifle in their hands. The Patent Pending LISS solves that problem. The flat nature of the harness allows it to be worn underneath the plate carrier, and the drop-down extender straps lower the belt to allow space for the large ruck to be worn. This will enable soldiers to move the same way we did with the LBE and ALICE ruck in the years before MOLLE.
Rather than moving exposed and performing an awkward gear conversion in the ORP or PB, now the soldier maneuvers with most of his battle load accessible on the belt and additional load on the plate carrier. Not only does this spread out the load, but this allows more space in the ruck and provides a breathable configuration in hot weather and jungle operations.
The SOTECH Battle Load Carriage System BLoCS Light Infantry Suspension System was developed with Army Special Forces Medics, Ranger Regiment, and the 25th Infantry Division. LISS recently completed the Army Expeditionary Warfare Experiment (AEWE) and is currently going through jump and field testing with the 82nd Airborne Division. Elements of the system have received NSNs and other elements are awaiting NSNs. Items are also available through DAPA, TLS, and GPC acquisition.
An adjustable one-size-fits-all flat squadron harness, the shoulder harness optionally suspends the belt system providing the operator with a choice of pouches mounted to a load-bearing belt. The three belts of the BLoCS LISS can be suspended from the six straps of the harness via side lock buckles. The buckles are set for quick attachment to the belts providing the option to use or not use the harness. The belts are designed so the soldier can disconnect the suspension straps and drop the belt 5 inches, and spin the belt part way around the waist moving the butt pack and rear pouches forward for access. The harness includes an optional flat sternum strap and flat deltoid strap for wear under armor plate carriers. The harness is one size fits all and is laser cut Squadron multicam or coyote brown. Slimline shoulder pads can be removed exposing aerated laser cuts but are usually kept in place even under plate carriers. The belt can be worn raised or dropped under a plate carrier. Optionally, soldiers can extend rear drops to accommodate a ruck while keeping the front drops fastened up. Some soldiers prefer to extend and retract the drop belt during long movements to shift weight from their hips to their shoulders and back.
Depending on the user’s preference we have established three different types of belts which range in width. All three variations have spacer mesh for through and through aeration and hidden Tegris for stiffener. 6 tabs for 6pt H Harness. Has 2 2-inch web and 2-inch side lock buckle (removable) with quick cinch adjusters to spread the belt when prone. The plastic belt can be removed and replaced through the slot with a riggers belt or cobra buckle belt to suspend a holster or thigh rig through bottom slots. A rear slot exists for the attachment of a harness anchor point. The belt system can be worn as an infantry war belt, a shooter’s pistol belt, or a Medic’s MARCH belt.
