About this opportunity

The intent of this Program Announcement is to support the early development of high-impact materiel products and new modifications to existing trauma practice ( knowledge products3) for future multi-domain operations (MDO) where evacuation capabilities may be significantly delayed or unavailable. Projects should consider the varied expertise levels of the medical providers and the possible diverse environmental conditions. A focus is on enhancing capabilities at the point of greatest need, including life-saving interventions to be rendered immediately post-injury, during periods of prolonged care in-theater. Medical materiel solutions are encouraged to include characteristics relevant to military use in austere, combat environments. Characteristics and concepts to consider include but are not limited to:• Low-weight and low-cube: Compared to existing materiel products, the product is a smaller size and weight to aid in portability and storage.• Low-power, longer shelf life: The product has reduced power usage requirements and longer shelf life than currently available products.• Modularity and interoperability: The materiel product is compatible with and easily added to existing platforms being used by the military.• Ruggedization: The materiel product is able to withstand harsh and varied environments such as extreme temperature high altitude while maintaining operability and stability.• or semi-closed loop feedback or automation: The product is simple to operate, provides decision support to user, and can be partially or fully autonomous. The product can be used by various levels of medical providers with minimal training.• Affordability: The materiel and knowledge products would result in cost-savings over what is currently available and considers the costs of maintaining and sustaining the product.The proposed research must be relevant to Service members. It is also expected that outcomes of funded research will benefit Veterans, military beneficiaries, and the American public.The types of awards made under the Program Announcement will be assistance agreements. An assistance agreement is appropriate when the Federal Government transfers a “thing of value” to a “state, local government,” or “other recipient” to carry out a public purpose of support or stimulation authorized by a law of the United States instead of acquiring property or service for the direct benefit and use of the Government. An assistance agreement can take the form of a grant or cooperative agreement. The level of involvement on the part of the DoD during project performance is the key factor in determining whether to award a grant or cooperative agreement. If “no substantial involvement” on the part of the funding agency is anticipated, a grant award will be made (31 USC 6304). Conversely, if substantial involvement on the part of the funding agency is anticipated, a cooperative agreement will be made (31 USC 6305), and the award will identify the specific substantial involvement. Substantial involvement may include, but is not limited intervention in the research to be performed under the award. The award type, along with the start date, will be determined during the negotiation process.Research Scope: The FY21 DMRDP JPC-6/CCCRP BRISCC Award is structured with three different funding levels based on the scope of the research proposed. It is the responsibility of the Principal Investigator (PI) to select the funding level that is most appropriate for the proposed research project. The Government reserves the right to fund an application at a lower funding level.• Funding Level 1: Innovative, high-risk/high-reward research that is in the early stages of idea development or is an untested theory that addresses an important problem. Preliminary data are not required.• Funding Level 2: Preclinical and clinical research that is supported by substantial preliminary or published data.
