Navy Catapult — MCSC Track (2nd Phase II Transition)

Navy Catapult - MCSC Track is the Marine Corps Systems Command path for a second Phase II contract under the Navy Catapult transition model. It is aimed at SBIR companies whose prior Phase II work matches an active Marine Corps acquisition priority, and the route is administered through the Navy SBIR Program Office rather than through a standing annual competition. The record places the award range at about $1.7 million to $13 million. The program is rolling and nomination-based. A Marine Corps program manager can put forward a company at any time when the technology is relevant and SBIR funding is available, and the available data shows that cross-agency nominations are allowed as long as the technology supports Marine Corps needs. FY24 figures in the record show 69 new awards and 188 active agreements, with $248 million in SBIR/STTR funds and $63 million in matching funds across the active portfolio. This route fits firms that already have proof of execution on a prior Phase II and can show a credible path to transition. The record also points to Marine Corps customer sponsorship as the deciding factor, so the strongest applications are those with a named operational need, a mature technology base, and a clear reason for a second Phase II investment.
