The research is initially more on detection, independent of root cause such that all causes of a fire found, and then analyzed enough to know the most pervasive common cause(s). The project needs to use some criteria on what to focus on and how to eliminate those cause (s).

We know both areas need some research and possible mitigations ideas. It might be up to you to pick one or the other area or both and show your expertise, working with vehicle integrators or OEMs or both. Regardless, selection will be based on the proposal plan and other evaluation factors.

This project is a phase 1 SBIR project, but the main point for second part of the project is to have a conceptual design, not a working hardware. However, collaboration is always desirable.
If Phase 2 SBIR project is awarded separately from the Phase 1 SBIR project later, then different skill sets are required.

Expectation from comprehensive review and analysis is a variety of solutions inside and outside but there is only so much you can tell battery OEMs for internal battery improvement. So, the focus is all solutions, but it might be more about mitigations outside the shell and outside the battery packs. The research should tell us what needs to be focused and mitigations developed.

It is acceptable for a potential organization to work with National Lab or a non-transit agency organization (e.g., CharIN) but it is preferable if the offeror also works with a public transit agency to collect additional data. Vulnerable points in a Transit agency system (IT system, Charging system, Farecard, Kiosk, etc.) provide some real-world data.

This project was designed to assess all cyber related vulnerability issues and prioritize them so that the top couple of issues and their mitigations can be developed and tested in Phase II. Potential issues are not just during transactions with passengers. A standalone transit system can face the danger. An electric charging station can introduce the vulnerability to the bus while charging. Or the system database can be hacked. So, it is all transit - passengers, operators, vehicles, assets, infrastructures, processes, interactions, transactions, etc. Reseach may require loads of transit industry interaction and collection of data for review, analysis and conclusion and then focusing on the top issues for mitigation.

It should cover only a subset of likely major failure points and technologies to mitigate those.
It is one of the failure points but not the only one. The research should find all possible failure points, prioritize using certain criteria and develop mitigations for the most common ones.
