Searchable Database

Innovative Ideas that are submitted are reviewed and assigned a tracking number. The STIC searchable database reports the submitted ideas and their disposition after consideration by the Innovation Advisory Team (IAT). Ideas will be determined as worthy of further investigation by a CIA team or determined to be not feasible at this time.
