The Department of the Navy’s Marine Corps seeks SBIR research to develop a rugged, field-ready mobile vehicle-forensics capability.
- **Government buyer:** Department of the Navy, United States Marine Corps; the initial notice also associates the opportunity with PAE MC.
- **Opportunity:** Phase I SBIR topic DON27BZ02-NV006, Mobile Vehicle Forensics. The notice specifies CMMC Level 2 (Self).
- **Requested capability:** A low-size, weight, and power (low-SWaP), ruggedized device that non-invasively collects and structures vehicle telematics and infotainment data through external interfaces such as OBD-II or USB.
- **Operational need:** Rapid, accurate collection across varied vehicle makes, models, years, and electronic architectures for Marine Corps and joint operators.
- **Work planned:** Phase I feasibility assessment and initial system design; Phase II field-ready prototype development, compatibility expansion, and operational demonstrations; Phase III transition support for Marine Corps and USSOCOM use.
- **Deliverables and requirements:** Phase I includes a feasibility study, architecture, extraction-speed and performance estimates with limitations, and a Phase II plan. Phase II includes a Government-evaluable prototype, demonstrations, technical documentation, and a commercialization and transition plan. Ruggedization for expeditionary testing and increased extraction depth and fidelity are desired.
- **OEMs and vendors:** No commercial OEMs, product vendors, part numbers, or purchase quantities are identified. PAE MC is named as an associated entity, not as a stated product manufacturer.
- **Transition targets:** Marine Corps Forensics Dominance System tactical site exploitation kits, USSOCOM, and other Department of War forensic intelligence elements; law enforcement and commercial dual-use applications are also noted.
