Request for Information (RFI): Verification and Compliance Checking for Natural-Language Network Requirements (FastVacc)
Solicitation # DARPA-SN-27-13
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Information Processing Techniques Office (IPTO) has issued a Request for Information (RFI) under solicitation number DARPA-SN-27-13 titled Verification and Compliance Checking for Natural-Language Network Requirements (FastVacc). The agency is seeking information on tools, practices, and approaches to reduce the time and cost of verifiable compliance checking for network security requirements by two to three orders of magnitude. The objective is to develop a capability that can process natural-language requirements documents, such as Zero Trust Architecture or Commercial Solutions for Classified packages, and concrete network configurations to identify inconsistencies, redundancies, and incompleteness in an offline phase, while providing near real-time verification of configurations with human-understandable output. This RFI is not a formal solicitation for proposals and does not constitute a binding contract. Interested respondents must submit their information by November 13, 2026, via email to [email hidden]. Submissions should consist of a one-page narrative and up to two slides featuring visual depictions of key concepts, including a completed version of Table 1. All responses must be submitted at the unclassified level in unprotected Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, or PDF formats, adhering to specific formatting guidelines including 12-point font and one-inch margins. Any proprietary information must be clearly labeled as Proprietary, and the use of the term Confidential is strictly prohibited for proprietary business data.

FTA Broad Agency Announcement (FY26) -- “Research Initiatives in Support of Safety, Accessibility, and Mobility in Public Transportation
Solicitation # 693195-26-BAA-0001
The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) Office of Research, Demonstration, and Innovation has issued a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) soliciting applied research projects to enhance the safety, reliability, efficiency, and accessibility of public transportation in the United States. This unrestricted solicitation is open to any responsible source, excluding Federal Government-owned businesses, and encourages teaming and collaboration. The program focuses on technology readiness levels 3 through 6, with a preference for proof-of-concept testing. Research topics include community connectivity, accessibility for automated vehicles, urban rail innovations, ferry safety, and transit safety data analytics. Individual awards typically range from $150,000 to $500,000, and while cost sharing is not mandatory, projects that include transit operator partnerships and cost sharing are preferred. The selection process follows a two-step approach requiring an initial concept paper and project quad chart, followed by a detailed technical and cost proposal if invited. Following Amendment 0002, the due date for submissions has been extended to November 6, 2026. Awards are anticipated as firm-fixed-price or level-of-effort term contracts, though cost-reimbursable contracts may be considered with justification. Evaluation is based on a trade-off process where technical merit and importance to agency programs are significantly more important than cost. Successful contractors must comply with strict reporting requirements, including a Data Management Plan, semi-annual Technology Transfer Reports, and a final technical report that is 100 percent Section 508 compliant. Administrative requirements include mandatory electronic invoicing via the DELPHI iSupplier system and adherence to NIST SP 800-171 for protecting controlled unclassified information.

Bolstering Underutilized Industry by Leveraging Technology Transfer (BUILTT) pilot program
Solicitation # 10292026-LR-27
The Department of Energy, in partnership with the National Nuclear Security Administration, has announced the Bolstering Underutilized Industry by Leveraging Technology Transfer (BUILTT) pilot program. This initiative, conducted by the Nevada National Security Sites, Y-12 National Security Complex, and Kansas City National Security Campus, aims to assist qualified U.S. small and medium-sized businesses in manufacturing low-volume, high-impact technologies developed by DOE/NNSA Labs, Plants, and Sites. These technologies, which include specialized optical imaging, radiation and chemical sensing systems, precision electrical components, and advanced materials, often have limited commercial markets but are critical for government mission requirements. Under the program, selected businesses may receive a Cost Reduction License (CRL) for a nominal fee, granting them the rights to produce specified technologies for sale to the DOE, NNSA, and other government customers at pre-negotiated prices. Eligibility is limited to U.S.-based SMBs, with preference given to those near participating sites or those with SBA 8(a) or HUBZone designations. Interested parties are evaluated based on their technical and manufacturing capabilities, financial capacity, and ability to meet regulatory and security requirements. Responses must be submitted to the Technology Partnerships and Intellectual Property Office by April 1, 2027, and are categorized under NAICS code 541715.

Solicitation # RFI-PGI-20260929
The Department of the Navy is conducting a Request for Information under solicitation RFI-PGI-20260929 to gather industry feedback for the Pacific Greenfield initiative. This effort aims to establish an advanced manufacturing and industrial resilience campus on non-excess Navy property on Oahu, Hawaii, to reduce reliance on long-lead continental United States supply chains. The initiative focuses on creating theater-scale production capabilities for metals, composites, electronics, and large-format printing, bridging the gap between prototyping and industrial production of hundreds to thousands of units. Key priorities include the development of environmentally resilient, industrial-scale facilities integrated with modern utility infrastructure, grid-interactive storage, and circular resource-recovery solutions, while simultaneously strengthening the local Hawaii workforce through training pipelines and apprenticeships. The Navy is seeking input on site requirements, infrastructure needs, development timelines, and diverse acquisition and financing models, such as Enhanced Use Leases, Other Transaction Authorities, and joint ventures. A central technical goal is the implementation of a Born Qualified approach to digital engineering, utilizing in-situ process monitoring and digital workflows to ensure components meet naval and airworthiness standards at the point of production. This RFI is strictly for market research and planning purposes; it does not constitute a solicitation, does not commit the government to a contract, and will not result in payment for submitted information. Responses are due by 17:00 HST on November 10, 2026, and are limited to 20 pages.
