LEVERAGE SOLE-SOURCE AUTHORITIES TO PARTNER WITH US

Forward Edge-AI’s T&E products and services derive from our Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) R/DT&E projects.

Additional advantages :

  • No limit on the size, scope, or duration of a sole-source
  • No limit on contract type (Delivery Order, Task Order, IDIQ, BOA, BPAs)
