Artificial Intelligence
Machine learning, natural language processing, and intelligent automation that turns raw government data into decision-ready insight — across aviation, defense, and civilian missions.
Process Automation
Digitize complex regulatory and mission workflows in months — not years — while maintaining the security and auditability federal agencies require.
Supply Chain
Graph neural networks, large language models, and real-time analytics help agencies turn fragmented supply chains into transparent, data-driven ecosystems.
Zero Trust
Data architectures that assume no implicit trust — protecting sensitive, long-lived information about people, operations, and assets in defense contexts.
Small Business Innovation Research
The SBIR Advantage
Many of NIRA's technologies are developed under the SBIR program, giving agencies a fast, low-risk path from proven research to fielded capability.
Fast
Competition requirements are already met through the competitive SBIR Phase I/II awards, so agencies can award follow-on work directly.
Flexible
SBIR Phase III awards have no dollar limit, no workshare requirements, and no duration limit.
Leverage Prior Investment
Agencies can build on R&D investments already made by other agencies, rather than funding the same research from scratch.
Acquisition
Available Through Multiple Contract Vehicles
Access NIRA's technology capabilities through GSA OASIS+, GSA STARS III, NASA SEWP, FAA eFAST, and other established federal acquisition vehicles.
