Commercial High Technology

Some commercial high technology companies do not serve, do not have the visibility, or do not know how to enter the defense market. Many also find it difficult to translate DoD’s requirements into terms familiar to the commercial market. However, these companies may provide an alternative or new technology that meets a requirement, fits within an existing program or, can address capability gaps planned to be addressed during a systems upgrade.

CommerceBasix translates DoD requirements into commercial terms and bridges the gap between the defense market and the commercial high technology market. We work with the commercial company to assess the fit, identify gaps and matrix its technology to the requirements. We match the technology to the defense supplier into whose programs it fits. We then facilitate an introduction, perform a technical and financial evaluation and support the transaction.

This provides the company with:

• A bridge to a new market and applications
• A method to assess their technology fit to requirements
• A method to finance the procurement process
• A process to facilitate introduction, evaluation and transaction
