The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is consolidating three existing task orders into a single hybrid task order for Biological Technologies Office (BTO) Scientific, Engineering and Technical Assistance (SETA) Support Services. This consolidation, conducted under FAR 7.107, aims to eliminate overlapping scopes and reduce administrative redundancy. The requirement will be awarded via the GSA OASIS+ contract vehicle, with the solicitation (anticipated as HR001126RE003) expected to be issued in March or April 2026. The contract will utilize a hybrid structure featuring Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee, Cost-Reimbursable (No-Fee), and Award-Fee CLINs. The scope of work encompasses both Operational Support Services, such as front office administration and financial management, and Program Support Services for biotechnology programs. Key functional areas include technical and programmatic expertise, independent assessments, acquisition support, concept development, and SBIR/STTR management. The anticipated period of performance consists of a six-month base period, four 12-month option years, and a six-month final period. Performance will be based in Arlington, Virginia, and requires security clearances. Small business participation is encouraged through OASIS+ master contract goals, including targets for SDB, WOSB, HUBZone, and SDVOSB entities.

The 711th Human Performance Wing (HPW) Mission Support Services contract is a 100% competitive 8(a) set-aside Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) vehicle. Managed by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), the contract has an estimated maximum value of $505,000,000.00 with a five-year ordering period and a six-year period of performance. The scope of work involves providing Advisory and Assistance Services (A&AS) and non-personal medical clinical, management, and certified laboratory support services across multiple locations, including Wright-Patterson AFB and the Naval Medical Research Unit-Dayton. The contract utilizes a mix of Firm Fixed Price (FFP) and Time and Materials (T&M) pricing arrangements, with a minimum guarantee provided via the first task order for the kick-off meeting. Award is based on a technical threshold approach where the government intends to award contracts to all responsible offerors who achieve a minimum validated score of 1,740 points on a self-scoring technical capability worksheet. Cost and price are not evaluated at the IDIQ level; instead, they are determined during the fair opportunity proposal request process for individual task orders. Key requirements for offerors include maintaining an active Government Secret or higher Facility Security Clearance (FCL), with some task orders requiring Top Secret and SCI access. Performance is monitored through a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) focusing on staffing continuity, workforce stability, and security compliance. Proposals are due by October 30, 2026, at 3:00 p.m. EDT.

Atomically Precise Molecules (APM)
Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-141
The Atomically Precise Molecules (APM) program, solicitation DARPA-PS-26-141, is a 36-month initiative by the DARPA Multi X Office seeking innovative synthesis techniques for programmable precision polymers (PPPs) and nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. The program aims to develop scalable materials with strictly controlled monomer sequences and compositions, culminating in a prototype NLO material integrated into a government-provided electro-optic modulator capable of achieving greater than 1THz modulation. The effort is structured in two phases, with Phase I lasting 12 months and focusing on synthesis capabilities. Research limited to inorganic materials or incremental improvements to existing state-of-the-art practices is specifically excluded. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction for Prototype Agreements, with payments processed through the Wide Area Workflow system based on a schedule of milestones. Proposals are due by December 18, 2026, via the Broad Agency Announcement Tool and must include technical, management, and pricing volumes. Eligibility is restricted to U.S. organizations, and all performers must comply with CMMC Level 2 self-certification and NIST SP 800-171 standards for safeguarding Controlled Unclassified Information. Evaluation will be based on technical approach, relevance to the DARPA mission, budget realism, and the capability to transition the technology to military or commercial sectors.

Protein Palace Proposers Day
Solicitation # DARPA-SN-27-01
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is initiating the Protein Palace program to develop a universal, tunable protein purification platform. This initiative aims to replace the traditional lock-and-key paradigm with a system capable of purifying multiple proteins from a single system by leveraging unique physicochemical characteristics to improve biomanufacturing specificity, generalizability, and scalability. The program is structured into two distinct phases: a 24-month Phase 1 focused on proving the feasibility of specificity and generalizability by separating eight different proteins, followed by an 18-month Phase 2 focused on scalability and throughput, which requires demonstrating the platform on two additional proteins that are difficult to purify using current state-of-the-art methods. To support this effort, DARPA is hosting an in-person Proposers Day on November 17, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET at the Executive Conference Center in Arlington, Virginia. This event is unclassified, and all attendees must provide government-issued photo identification. While the current Special Notice DARPA-SN-27-01 and its subsequent amendment serve as information and planning tools rather than a formal solicitation, DARPA anticipates releasing the full solicitation on sam.gov prior to the event. Interested parties must meet the registration deadline of November 9, 2026, to attend the session.
