Federal Research in Progress
The Federal Research in Progress (FEDRIP) database provides access to information about ongoing federally-funded projects in the physical sciences, engineering, and life sciences. The ongoing research announced in FEDRIP is an important component of transferring technology in the U.S. FEDRIP is a non-bibliographic information source for research in progress. The use of FEDRIP will help avoid duplicating research, locate sources of support, find leads in the literature, stimulate ideas for planning, identify gaps in areas of investigation, locate individuals with expertise, and complement searches of completed research. FEDRIP offers a free trial and day pass; a membership fee is charged for long-term use.
GOV Research Center
The GOV Research Center is a joint venture between the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Technical Information Service (NTIS) and the National Information Services Corporation (NISC) for a single access point to valuable government information. This joint venture combines NISC's award-winning technology and NTIS's valuable content. The service is entirely web-based and has information that professionals worldwide can easily access. Scientists, engineers, and researchers will find NISC's powerful search engine enables broad based, refined search and retrieval capabilities. Individual or network subscribers can search in different modes to retrieve the most complete and relevant data available. The site offers a free trial and day pass; a membership fee is charged for long-term use. Research business and technology topics online by searching key government databases.
Independent Research and Development
DTIC's independent research and development (IR&D) database contains voluntary submissions from industry of their IR&D projects. DoD employees can search the database to find IR&D projects that could fulfill defense requirements. Each project is described briefly and a point of contact is given for the appropriate contractor organization. Each project is categorized to facilitate searching and analysis by technology area or application. Currently, the database contains about 4,000 active projects valued at more than $4 billion. Site contains laws, regulations, policies, a database, and publications.
Joint Experimentation Program
USJFCOM acts as the transformation laboratory for the Department of Defense. USJFCOM's joint experimentation campaign plans are the framework for synchronizing all services to ensure that our defense forces are more effectively used on the basis of improvements in doctrine, interoperability, and integration.

National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Commercial Technology Office
The mission of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA's) Commercial Technology Office (CTO) is to increase the competitiveness of U.S. industry by using NASA technologies, expertise, and facilities commercially. Three steps occur as the CTO aims to do its mission. The first step is to manage intellectual property (technologies, expertise, and facilities). The next step is to promote the opportunities that NASA technologies, expertise, and facilities give industry and other government R&D programs. In the last step, NASA works with partners who use NASA capabilities to improve their competitive edge and promote economic growth.
National Aeronautics and Space Administration's TechFinder
NASA's TechFinder is the commercialization portal for all available NASA technology transfer success stories. TechFinder contains text and images from all 11 NASA centers. TechFinder is updated within minutes of changes made at a NASA field center. The site has a free database search but requires a login.
