Solicitation # FA9101269TS2
The Department of the Air Force, through the Arnold Engineering Development Complex, is seeking whitepapers for the modernization of Test Site 2 (TS2) at the Aerospace Vehicle Survivability Facility located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio. This project, pursued under Other Transaction Authority 10 U.S.C. section 4022, aims to provide the United States Air Force with a state-of-the-art facility for conducting Live Fire Test and Evaluation on aerospace systems against advanced kinetic threats. The scope of work includes the design, fabrication, and installation of a steel superstructure measuring approximately 24 by 50 by 50 feet with an elevated platform, a 25-ton bridge crane, a 5-ton monorail system, and a comprehensive fuel containment and recovery system featuring a 1,000-gallon catch pan and a 6,000-gallon recovery tank. Submissions will be evaluated based on technical competency, risk management, and cost and price realism of the provided Rough Order of Magnitude estimates. To satisfy statutory OTA requirements, the government requires that all significant participants be small businesses or nontraditional defense contractors, with at least one nontraditional defense contractor or nonprofit research institution participating significantly. Additionally, non-federal sources must provide at least one-third of the total prototype project cost. Selected performers must adhere to AISC, ACI, OSHA, ASME, and CMAA standards, and demonstrate strict compliance with defense cybersecurity requirements, including CUI and CMMC standards. The project will be executed through a series of milestones ranging from initial geotechnical studies and design reviews to final functional verification and the delivery of as-built documentation.

Request for Whitepapers: AEDC Velocity Alliance - A Multi-Billion Dollar OTA Consortium Opportunity
Solicitation # FA9101-26-9-Velocity_Alliance
The AEDC Velocity Alliance is a strategic consortium-based initiative established by the Department of the Air Force, through the Air Force Test Center and Arnold Engineering Development Complex, to accelerate the modernization, restoration, and sustainment of critical national test infrastructure. Operating under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 4022, this multi-billion dollar portfolio utilizes Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) rather than standard FAR-based contracts to provide an agile contracting vehicle for next-generation defense systems. The program encompasses 15 technical categories, including general and industrial construction, high-pressure process systems, high-voltage electrical infrastructure, and advanced mechanical or instrumentation engineering services. A near-term pipeline for Fiscal Years 2026 and 2027 is estimated at approximately 550 million dollars across 135 planned projects. To join the Alliance, qualified vendors must undergo a phased onboarding process involving the submission of a whitepaper, government evaluation, and a mandatory site visit or virtual industry day. A critical requirement for membership is the demonstration of partnership capability; applicants must identify a partner that qualifies as a Non-Traditional Defense Contractor, Small Business, or Nonprofit Research Institution to satisfy statutory conditions. Additionally, prime members must prove cybersecurity compliance through a validated CMMC Level 2 certification or a current NIST SP 800-171 assessment in SPRS. Once established, all project opportunities will be competed exclusively among Alliance members, with the majority of awards anticipated to be based on Best Value considerations.

Request for Whitepaper - AEDC Facility Digital Twins and Predictive Analytics
Solicitation # FA910126RWP-DigitalTwins
The Department of the Air Force is seeking innovative solutions through a Request for Whitepapers to establish an Other Transaction Agreement under 10 U.S.C. section 4022 for the Arnold Engineering Development Complex (AEDC) Facility Digital Twins and Predictive Analytics project. This multi-year initiative aims to modernize facility documentation by creating high-fidelity, engineering-grade 3D digital twins of critical infrastructure. The initial phase, scheduled for Fiscal Year 2027, focuses on the Von Karman Gas Dynamics Facility (VKF), with plans to eventually scale the methodology across more than 2.5 million square feet of facility footprint. Technical requirements specify a minimum Level of Detail (LOD) of 350/400 and a dimensional accuracy of +/- 1/4 inch, utilizing Autodesk Revit for architectural and structural models and Autodesk Plant 3D for intelligent process models. As an Other Transaction Agreement, this effort is not subject to the Federal Acquisition Regulation, though it requires compliance with 31 U.S.C. section 1352 and DPAS regulations. All work must be performed within the continental United States, and performers must adhere to strict cybersecurity standards, including NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC Level 2 self-standards, as all project data is handled as Controlled Unclassified Information. Submissions are evaluated based on technical merit, program management, scalability, and cost realism. The pricing structure consists of a firm-fixed-price base phase with milestone-based payments and separate priced or rough order of magnitude option phases. Interested parties must maintain active SAM registration and a valid Joint Certification Program certification to access export-controlled data.
