RENO, Nev., April 10, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Dynepic, Inc.^® announces it has been selected by AFWERX for a Phase II SBIR contract in the amount of $1.25M focused on adapting its MOTAR^® Platform to address the most pressing challenges in the Department of the Air Force (DAF).

Dynepic's MOTAR Platform, with its mobile MOTAR-In-A-Box (MIAB) capability, empowers Just In Time Multi-Mission Airmen/Warfighters (JITMMA/W) to train without boundaries - online, offline, anytime, anywhere and on any device.

The Air Force Research Laboratory and AFWERX have partnered to streamline the Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) process by accelerating the small business experience through faster proposal to award timelines, changing the pool of potential applicants by expanding opportunities to small business and eliminating bureaucratic overhead by continually implementing process improvement changes in contract execution. The DAF began offering the Open Topic SBIR/STTR program in 2018 which expanded the range of innovations the DAF funded and this month Dynepic will start its journey to create and provide innovative capabilities that will strengthen the national defense of the United States of America.

"Today's Warfighters and Just In Time Multi-Mission Airmen/Warfighters (JITMMA/W) are required to train and operate at 'The Edge'; the MOTAR Platform with its mobile MOTAR-In-A-Box (MIAB) capability empowers them to do just that - train without boundaries - online, offline, anytime, anywhere and on any device," said Krissa Watry, Co-Founder, and CEO of Dynepic. "Specifically, this expanded capability will provide the US Air Force with the ability to stream training content from MIAB, including Augmented and Virtual Reality applications to ensure they can train and operate with skill wherever the mission takes them!"
