SBIR Proposal on DSIP

What they’re asking for

Official topic text: (1) a unified representation for single-episode trade studies and multi-episode “decision programs,” including knowledge graphs/semantic layers over digital-engineering tools such as SysML 2.0; (2) agentic capabilities that produce structured, reproducible artifacts while keeping a human in control; (3) schema extensions so bias checks, risks, and assumptions are explicit, testable objects. Traceability across digital threads and twins is in scope.
