Mobile Integrated Launch Capability
Solicitation # 26-MDA-12366
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is soliciting innovative and cost-efficient alternatives to current C-17 air drop target launches through the Mobile Integrated Launch Capability (MILC) program. The objective is to develop mobile launch platforms capable of deploying short to long-range target missile systems, including ballistic, air-breathing, and maneuvering targets, from various global locations via ground, sea, or air. This effort is structured in two phases: Phase I focuses on detailed design, engagement analysis, and prototype costing with an objective period of three months; Phase II involves prototyping, ground testing, and the delivery of one launch platform for a demonstration launch, with an objective period of twelve months. The solicitation follows a two-step competitive process based on the evaluation of white papers, which are judged on technical merit, innovation, potential utility to agency programs, schedule adherence, and lifecycle cost. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management and maintain an active Secret Facility Clearance to handle classified information. Procurement may be executed through Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation (RFO) based contracts or Other Transaction (OT) agreements, the latter of which prioritize commercial industry standards. Submissions must include a detailed program plan, a Rough Order of Magnitude cost estimate, and a full disclosure of any organizational conflicts of interest.

MTEC Solicitation Summary: Fiscal Year 2026 Multi-Topic Request for Project Proposals
Solicitation # MTEC-26-04-MultiTopic
The Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC), in collaboration with the Defense Health Agency, is soliciting project proposals under solicitation MTEC-26-04-MultiTopic for medical prototype technological and knowledge solutions. Authorized under 10 U.S.C. section 4022 and utilizing an Other Transaction Agreement, this effort seeks to modernize medical capabilities to maintain force readiness and soldier lethality in future multi-domain conflicts. The solicitation covers 16 distinct Focus Areas, including behavioral health, physical fitness, wound infection prevention, sepsis treatment, musculoskeletal injury interventions, non-addictive analgesics, blast and blunt impact sensors, and a multisite clinical biomarker platform for lung and kidney failure. Proposals are submitted via a two-stage Enhanced White Paper process, where selected Stage 1 submissions are invited to provide full cost proposals in Stage 2. To be eligible, projects must demonstrate clear military relevance, meet a minimum Knowledge/Technology Readiness Level of 3, and fit the specific definition of a prototype rather than being exploratory. Additionally, solutions must not have been submitted to MTEC within the last two years. While average initial awards range from 2.0 to 3.5 million dollars over a two to three year period, specific funding and performance periods vary by Focus Area. Teaming is encouraged, and successful projects may be eligible for non-competitive follow-on tasks.

Atomically Precise Molecules (APM)
Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-141
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Multi X Office is soliciting proposals for the Atomically Precise Molecules (APM) program under solicitation DARPA-PS-26-141. The program aims to develop innovative synthesis techniques for programmable precision polymers (PPPs) and nonlinear optical (NLO) materials to overcome performance gaps in optical communications and LiDAR. The primary objective is the creation of scalable, fit-for-purpose materials, culminating in a prototype demonstration of a revolutionary NLO material integrated into a government-provided electro-optic modulator. Research focusing solely on inorganic materials or incremental improvements to the state-of-the-art is specifically excluded. This 36-month effort is structured in two technical phases, with Phase I focusing on developing PPP synthesis capabilities over the first 12 months. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction (OT) for Prototype Agreements under 10 U.S.C. 4022. Key requirements include CMMC Level 2 self-assessment compliance and adherence to a program-specific Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) guide. Non-US organizations, FFRDCs, UARCs, and government entities are ineligible to serve as prime performers, though FFRDCs and UARCs may participate as subawardees provided they meet specific certification and conflict of interest mitigation requirements. Proposals must be submitted via the Broad Agency Announcement Tool (BAAT) by December 18, 2026. Submissions must include a technical and management volume, a price proposal with a detailed spreadsheet, a Task Description Document, and a schedule of milestones and payments. Evaluation will be based on the technical approach, relevance to the DARPA mission, budget realism, and the capability to transition the technology to military or commercial sectors. Payments are milestone-based and processed through the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) system.

2027 NIAID DMID Omnibus Broad Agency Announcement: Development of Medical Interventions for Infectious Diseases
Solicitation # HHS-NIH-NIAID-BAA2026-1
The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) is soliciting proposals under Broad Agency Announcement HHS-NIH-NIAID-BAA2026-1 to advance the research and development of medical interventions for infectious diseases. This initiative focuses on three primary research areas: the development of needle-free vaccine candidates through early-phase clinical trials; the creation of safe and effective therapeutic candidates for serious infectious diseases, including those resistant to current antimicrobial therapy; and the innovation of in vitro diagnostic technology platforms capable of rapid, automated detection of a broad panel of priority viral pathogens. The program emphasizes alignment with NIH priorities regarding biosafety, biosecurity, and the use of non-animal testing methods. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the NIAID eCPS website by December 8, 2026, at 3:00 PM Eastern Time. Technical proposals are limited to 75 pages and will be evaluated by a peer review group based on technical merit, with the technical plan and personnel qualifications being of paramount consideration. Awards are not based on a common Statement of Work; instead, offerors must propose their own technical plans, milestones, and cost structures using a base and option period format. The resulting contracts will require an accounting system compliant with generally accepted accounting principles and will involve rigorous government inspection and acceptance based on the successful completion of critical milestones.
