Full Description

Show more

This announcement is issued on behalf of the Department of the Air Force to solicit innovative research and development approaches that advance acquisition cost data, analytics, and estimating capabilities in support of Air Force and Space Force decision-making. The focus of this opportunity is on developing and modernizing integrated cost datasets, databases, analytical methods, and decision-support capabilities that improve the accuracy, consistency, timeliness, and defensibility of acquisition cost estimates. These capabilities are essential to identifying budget trade-space, assessing cost and schedule risk, and informing Strategy, Planning, Programming, Budgeting, and Execution decisions. Offerors should clearly describe how their proposed research advances the state of the art and improves the Department’s ability to analyze competing investment priorities, quantify risk and uncertainty, and support delivery of critical future capabilities.

REQUEST FOR INFORMATION - OPERATIONAL TEST AND TRAINING READINESS DIVISION - DevSecOps
Solicitation # OTTI_2026_RFI_SpecDevOps
Space Systems Command is conducting market research through this Request for Information to evaluate the feasibility of a no-cost Prototype Other Transaction Agreement under 10 U.S.C. § 4022. The primary technical objective is to design, engineer, and validate a secure, multi-node, multi-vendor continuous software development and delivery architecture. This prototype aims to test the viability of connecting commercially owned and operated secure facility nodes directly to secure Government cloud environments to enable scalable DevSecOps pipelines. By establishing these connections, the government seeks to improve software accreditation timelines and deployment reliability, specifically addressing the technical bottlenecks involved in migrating software from unclassified environments across high-to-low security boundaries into highly secure networks. The market research follows a two-phase approach, beginning with a public Phase 1 to identify baseline commercial capabilities, followed by a controlled Phase 2 for detailed technical integration with vetted vendors. Participating commercial vendors are expected to provide 100% of the cost-share, covering physical secure facilities, personnel clearances, and engineering labor. Requirements include the use of DevOps toolchains, containerization, and Kubernetes, with all vendors being entirely U.S.-owned and operated to preclude foreign ownership, control, or influence. Interested parties must submit a white paper of no more than five pages by September 4, 2026. While general business information is submitted via email, sensitive data such as Facility Security Clearance levels and CAGE codes must be provided through a separate, secure channel. Successful completion of the prototype node and demonstration of safe, secure software transmission may qualify vendors for potential sole-source follow-on production contracts.

Army Contracting Command – Red River Army Depot (ACC-RRAD) Organic Industrial Base (OIB) Modernization Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO)
Solicitation # W911RQ-26-S-C001
The Army Contracting Command-Red River Army Depot (ACC-RRAD) is utilizing a Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) under solicitation W911RQ-26-S-C001 to modernize the Army's Organic Industrial Base (OIB). This initiative focuses on Convergent Manufacturing, integrating agile facilities, digital enterprises, advanced manufacturing, Digital Twins, automation, and cybersecurity to accelerate the delivery of capabilities to the Warfighter. Authorized under DFARS Subpart 212.70 and DoD Class Deviation 2022-O0007, the CSO allows for the competitive procurement of innovative commercial items, technologies, and services from both traditional and non-traditional defense contractors, with awards typically made as fixed-price contracts under FAR Part 12. The solicitation is structured around various Areas of Interest (AoIs) that address specific operational needs, including domestic component manufacturing, tank track disassembly and manufacturing, power pack interface test sets, and the procurement of micro trucks. Other priorities include AS9100 standard certification, lifecycle support for the ATLAS Crane system, and facility repairs for Building 325. The acquisition process follows a phased approach consisting of solution briefs, presentations or pitches, and final commercial solution proposals. Evaluation is based on technical merit, innovation, feasibility, and fair and reasonable pricing, with a strong emphasis on reducing industrial base fragility and enhancing domestic production. All selected companies must be registered in sam.gov.

Synthetic Training Environment (STE) Virtual Software (VSW)
Solicitation # STE-VSW-26-0006
The Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Grounds Orlando Division, on behalf of the Capability Program Executive Simulation, Training, Test and Threat, is issuing a Call for Solutions under Army Open Solicitation W9128Z-25-S-1002 for the Synthetic Training Environment Virtual Software. The objective is to acquire a modernized virtual software ecosystem that delivers a doctrinal gate to live fire, a true combined arms environment, full mission command concurrency, and an open system architecture with published SDKs and APIs. The total combined value of all awarded lots is approximately 250 million dollars. The scope is divided into five capability lots, including a foundational software platform, specialized applications, hardware-in-the-loop integration and test, and enterprise integration support. The acquisition follows a phased selection process prioritizing technical merit, schedule achievability, and recent experience. Key technical requirements include native ingestion of One World Terrain data, alignment with TC 3-20.0 Integrated Weapons Training Strategy, and a secure by design foundation leveraging FedRAMP authorizations to accelerate the RMF Open Network Authority to Operate timeline. Evaluation factors emphasize the speed to initial operational capability and the credibility of the technical approach for GOTS or COTS solutions. A strict organizational conflict of interest firewall is established for the Lot 5 integration support vendor, prohibiting them from proposing on or providing software for Lots 1, 2, or 4. Solutions are due by September 21, 2026, with anticipated awards for Lots 1 through 5 occurring around November 6, 2026.
