Nationwide IT Services is seeking a full-time Senior Financial Analyst for a potential opportunity to support the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), Naval Systems Engineering Directorate (SEA 05) in support of Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) / Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) Program and its related programs in SEA 05T. The position will be located at the Washington Navy Yard, Washington DC.

The SBIR program was established by Congress in 1982 to incorporate small business technological innovation into Government-supported Research and Development (R&D) programs as defined in the Small Business Administration (SBA) SBIR Policy Directive. NAVSEA has participated in the SBIR Program since its inception. The goals of the SBIR program are to stimulate technological innovation, increase small business participation in federally funded R&D, foster participation by socially and economically disadvantaged firms in technological innovation, and to increase private sector commercialization of federal R&D.

The STTR is another program that expands funding opportunities in the federal innovation and R&D arena as defined by the SBA Policy Directive. Central to the program is expansion of the public / private sector partnership to include the joint venture opportunities for small businesses and nonprofit research institutions. The unique feature of the STTR program is the requirement for the small business to formally collaborate with a research institution in Phase I and Phase II. STTR's most important role is to bridge the gap between performance of research and commercialization of resulting innovations.

The objective of this effort is to support the NAVSEA SBIR / STTR Program Manager (PM), who has overall management and authority for the Program, in executing the Department of Navy's (DoNs) SBIR / STTR program for NAVSEA.
