Air Force Special Operations Command Areas of Interest

Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) has issued an informational notice seeking industry partners capable of addressing its prioritized Areas of Interest that align with strategic planning, required capabilities, and mission gap priorities for 2025-2026. This solicitation is not a formal contract but rather an open call for capability submissions to support specialized operational needs such as cyber security monitoring, autonomous threat identification, battlefield trauma care, beyond-line-of-sight communications, full-spectrum threat warning, and resilient SOF air mobility in austere and contested environments. Industry participants are encouraged to submit capability briefs in PowerPoint or PDF format and complete an online Industry Information Form to establish initial engagement with AFSOC via the Technology and Industry Liaison Office (TILO), based at Hurlburt Field, Florida. The notice does not include detailed contract clauses, formal evaluation criteria, or award mechanisms, reflecting its informational purpose rather than an acquisition vehicle. There is no specified contract type, price data, or delivery schedule beyond a broad open response window through the end of 2027. Inspection, acceptance, and quality standards are implied through mission-focused capability descriptions rather than explicit requirements or technical standards. Similarly, representations, certifications, and socioeconomic status information are not requested at this stage. All inquiries and submissions are routed through AFSOC’s TILO email contact. Overall, this notice functions as a strategic engagement tool to identify and partner with industry providers who can contribute to AFSOC’s evolving mission technology and operational capabilities, particularly in areas demanding operational independence, precision, and threat resilience.
