"The catch" Application process takes several months
Similar to an RFP, by the time a SIBR request is written, the preferred vendor has already been chosen.
Government agency usually gets perpetual use license of your product.
Pros: Received an actual written response (months later) with detailed rejection reasons. Something a VC would never do.
For DoD projects and vendors with TS clearances, a SIBR contract can be parlayed into 5-10 year deals.
