Solution Request Process
If you have an idea for a new technology, or have a problem and want to request a technology solution, then email the TechSolutions team at ONR_TechSolutions@navy.mil to provide us your contact information and we’ll get in touch. You may also reach us by phone at (703) 696-0616. Note: Technology ideas & solution requests are accepted from Sailors and Marines only, though Science Advisors and other government civilian representatives may submit on behalf of a service member if their contact information is provided. |
FAQs
- Who can submit a solution request?

Any Sailor, Marine, or Science Advisor.
- Will I be notified if my solution request is accepted or declined?
-
Yes. You will receive a notification when we have received your request, along with the status of your request after it has been reviewed.
- Do I need to be a certain rank to make a request?
-
No! All ranks are welcome and encouraged to participate.
- Do I need to get permission from my command to make a request?
-
No. Though not required, we recommend letting your chain of command know. If TechSolutions can provide a solution we would like to have your participation in the development process and your command might have to support your involvement if your request gets approved.
- What topic areas are you looking for?
-
We do not look for specific topics, as long as your problem requires technical ingenuity/advancements we will consider it.
- Do I have to be from a specific community to submit a request?
-
No. We will accept requests from all different communities and command types.
- What actions are required by me?
-
All that we officially require is your request or idea! However our projects have the best chance of success when the original submitter is involved in the solicitation, evaluation, and testing phases. This might require attending some virtual meetings as well as in person demonstrations.
