The DoD SBIR 17.1 and the STTR 17.A Broad Agency Announcements (BAA) have been pre-released on the DoD SBIR/STTR Small Business Portal. You may view the topics here: https://sbir.defensebusiness.org/topics.
DoD BAA/Solicitation Changes: The Small Business Administration, through its SBIR/STTR Policy Directive, purposely departs from normal Government solicitation formats and requirements and authorizes agencies to simplify the SBIR/STTR award process and minimize the regulatory burden on small business. Therefore, consistent with the SBA Policy Directive, the Department of Defense is soliciting SBIR 17.1 and STTR 17.A as Broad Agency Announcements.
