Federal Funding Case Studies — Anonymized Pursuit Outcomes

Anonymized Velawolf pursuit outcomes across BARDA, DARPA, CISA, and CHIPS pathways—how we sequence fit, packaging, and pathway decisions.

Case studies

  • BARDA EZ-BAA: Diagnostics Fast-Turn Packaging: Anonymized pursuit: a diagnostics team with a short EZ-BAA window needed registrations, compliance packaging, and a focused technical volume—not a full-solicitation narrative.
  • CISA vs DARPA: Cyber Pathway Reroute: Anonymized pursuit: an OT security vendor initially pursued CISA grants despite a research-heavy AI assurance story better suited to DARPA I2O.
  • CHIPS Act: Packaging House Readiness Assessment: Anonymized pursuit: a packaging house explored DARPA MTO BAAs for a CHIPS-scale manufacturing expansion without facility economics or workforce narrative.
