I spent 15 years as a UPM in film. Now, I’m building tools for the next generation of career pivoters. 💻 Tomorrow, I’m giving a Tech Talk with The Tech Academy about my journey from film sets to tech ecosystems. But I didn't just want to talk; I wanted to ship. One of the hardest parts of transitioning into tech isn't the syntax—it’s the translation. We often struggle to see how our "old" skills fit into this "new" world. To solve this, I built The Self Audit Tool. It’s a 3-step framework to help you: • Translate your "War Stories" into technical assets • Identify your niche as a "Liaison" between teams • Recognize the logic systems you already know I’m dropping it as an activity tomorrow for @TheTechAcad but have a go at it now! You bring so much to the table from your past. It's time to let it shine. link below #BuildInPublic #CareerChange #TechTransition #100Devs

DoD and SBIR Funding: Context and Facts It is helpful to clarify what DoD funding does and doesn't imply Spruce claimed that funding from the U.S. Department of Defence (DoD) implies IperionX’s hydrogen-assisted reduction (HAMR) technology and titanium projects are fully commercialised. However, publicly available documentation from official sources shows that IBAS, DPA Title III, and SBIR programs are explicitly designed to de-risk, scale, and transition early-stage capabilities — not to certify them as commercially mature. This report examines programs that use only working, publicly accessible sources (all URLs provided in plain text and working at the time of publication). Industrial Base Analysis and Sustainment (IBAS) IBAS is a program within the DoD’s Office of Industrial Base Policy. It is designed to improve the readiness and competitiveness of the U.S. industrial base by establishing high-priority domestic capabilities for supply chains needed for national security. Working source link: virginiaapex.org/useful-link… IBAS authorities include monitoring and assessing the industrial base, addressing urgent operational needs, expanding domestic capability, and addressing supply-chain vulnerabilities. A detailed overview is also available from NERDIC: Working source link: nerdic.us/wp-content/uploads… Mission and Priorities According to a presentation by the DoD’s Innovation Capability and Modernisation (ICAM) Office, the IBAS mission is to: “Strengthen, prepare and ready the nation’s defence industrial base.” Source: nerdic.us/wp-content/uploads… Its priorities include: Strengthening competitiveness and innovation Preparing the workforce Readying a modern industrial base through technology adoption Assessing and shaping risk in supply chains Building government-industry-academic partnerships These objectives confirm that IBAS is meant to build and de-risk capability before full commercial deployment, not certify readiness. Defense Production Act (DPA) Title III Purpose of Title III The Defense Acquisition University (DAU) describes the DPA Title III program as ensuring domestic industrial capacity for national defence by providing funding and support to address critical gaps. source link: dau.edu/defense-production-a… Title III investments are used to: Create, maintain, protect, expand, and restore domestic production capabilities when the private market alone cannot support them. This means Title III funding is not proof of commercial maturity; it is intended to accelerate the scale-up of emerging domestic capability. Examples of Working Title III Projects 1. Graphite One US$37.5M Title III Award In 2024, the DoD announced a US$37.5 million Title III agreement to help Graphite One develop a domestic graphite supply chain. DoD release (working link): war.gov/News/Releases/Releas… This funding will: fast-track the feasibility study, accelerate the development of a domestic supply chain to support mining (Alaska), processing (Washington State), and battery-anode manufacturing, and enable recycling of graphite/battery materials DoD officials stated that the investment: “Exemplifies Industrial Base Policy’s commitment to building a resilient industrial base.” This is explicitly early-stage capability building, not commercial certification. 2. Urban Mining Company US$28.8M Title III Award A DoD release describes a US$28.8 million agreement with Urban Mining Company to establish a domestic source of NdFeB rare-earth magnets. DoD release : war.gov/News/Releases/Releas… Title III funding will: maintain critical workforce capabilities, develop a domestic rare-earth supply chain, and support production in Austin, Texas Again, the goal is development and de-risking, not certification of commercial readiness. Conclusion of Title III Analysis These examples show clearly that Title III funds scale early-stage projects, build domestic capacity, and de-risk industrial capability — not indicate full commercial maturity. Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Program Purpose of SBIR/STTR The SBIR/STTR Policy Directive explains that the program aims to stimulate technological innovation, meet federal R&D needs, increase private-sector commercialisation of innovations Working source link: sbir.gov/about/policies SBIR Phase III The policy directive (May 2023) clarifies that Phase III: derives from or extends SBIR/STTR projects, is funded by non-SBIR/STTR sources, is oriented toward commercialisation, includes production or deployment for government use, does not mean the technology is fully commercialised Working source link (SBIR Phase III definition): sbir.gov/sites/default/files… Examples of Phase III work include: commercial application of SBIR-funded research, government procurement of SBIR-derived system, ands continuation of R&D using non-SBIR funds The directive emphasises: “Phase III awards are still SBIR/STTR awards.” Agencies may issue sole-source Phase III awards without competition. This makes clear: Phase III exists to transition technologies into commercialisation, not to certify full commercial maturity. Conclusion Public records from the DoD and SBA show conclusively that: IBAS strengthens, prepares, and readies the defence industrial base, rather than certifying technology maturity. (Sources: virginiaapex.org/useful-link… and nerdic.us/wp-content/uploads…) DPA Title III funds early-stage scale-up and feasibility work where domestic capacity is insufficient. (Sources: dau.edu/defense-production-a… and DoD releases at war.gov) SBIR Phase III It is explicitly about commercialisation and transition, not end-state maturity. (Sources: sbir.gov/about/policies and sbir.gov/sites/default/files…) These facts directly contradict any claim that DoD or SBIR funding signals full commercial readiness. DoD funding means: → strategic importance → early-stage capability → de-risking → acceleration → domestic industrial development It does not mean: → fully commercial → mature and certified → ready for unrestricted private-sector deployment Therefore, using IBAS, Title III, or SBIR awards as evidence that IperionX’s technology is “already commercial” is factually wrong and misrepresents the purpose of these programs. #DefenseIndustrialBase #IndustrialBaseResilience #DPAIII #TitleIII #IBAS #SBIR #SBIRPhaseIII #TechTransition #TechnologyReadiness #ScaleUpFunding #USSupplyChain #CriticalMinerals #NationalSecurityInnovation #DefenseManufacturing #DoDFunding #IndustrialPolicy #InnovationEcosystem #AdvancedManufacturing #AcquisitionPolicy #DefenseAcquisition #TechnologyDeRisking #IndustrialBaseGaps #FederalRAndD #InnovationPolicy #StrategicMaterials #SupplyChainSecurity #DefenseEconomics #TechAccountability #DefenseTransparency #PublicSectorInnovation #DeepTech #HardTech #Commercialization #PilotToProduction #ScaleUpNation #HardwareIsHard #RAndDToRevenue #EmergingTech #StrategicTech #CriticalTech #AdvancedMaterials #MaterialsScience #MetalInnovation #AdditiveManufacturing #ManufacturingUSA #Reshore #Onshoring #AmericanManufacturing
