THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY - This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes - it does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. This notice does not constitute a commitment by the United States Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. All information submitted in response to this announcement is voluntary; the United States Government will not pay for information requested nor will it compensate any respondent for any cost incurred in developing information provided. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future RFP. If a solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the SAM.gov website: https://sam.gov/. It is the responsibility of potential offerors to monitor this site for additional information.


The primary purpose of this RFI is to solicit technology nominations specifically for SCOUT 27 and its concurrent Concepts Crucible event, scheduled for 12-18 March 2027 at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story, VA.


The objective is to evaluate early-stage concepts and mature prototypes in realistic, threat-informed environments. This campaign will deliver actionable, quantitative and qualitative data directly from Warfighters by rigorously assessing form, fit, function, usability, and DOTMLPF-P (Doctrine, Organization, Training, Material, Leadership & Education, Personnel, Facilities, and Policy) integration.

FY2022-2026 DTRA Chemical / Biological Technologies Broad Agency Announcement
Solicitation # HDTRA122S0002
The FY2022-2026 DTRA Chemical/Biological Technologies Broad Agency Announcement (BAA), solicitation HDTRA122S0002, is a five-year open continuous vehicle designed to identify and select science and technology projects for transition into joint acquisition programs. Managed by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), the BAA focuses on advancing defense capabilities against chemical and biological warfare environments. The scope is specifically limited to projects within Technology Readiness Levels (TRL) 3-6, with the objective of achieving a TRL of 4-6 upon completion. Research areas include detection, digital battlespace management, protection, hazard mitigation, vaccines, medical diagnostics, and therapeutics. The BAA operates through individual topic calls, such as Call 3 for modeling and decision aids, Call 4 for porous surface detection, Call 5 for digital twins of sensors, Call 6 for broad-spectrum medical countermeasures, and Call 7 for autonomous biological aerosol collection triggers. Proposals are generally submitted in a phased approach (Phase I and Phase II) or a one-phase process, depending on the specific call. Evaluation is based on the overall benefit to the Government, prioritizing innovative technical approaches, alignment with Chemical and Biological Defense Program priorities, and the proposer's capability to perform. All submissions must be made electronically via the DTRA portal, and offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM).

Aviation Research BAA 2025
Solicitation # 692M15-25-R-00004
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has issued Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) 692M15-25-R-00004 to solicit applied research and development aimed at solving current and future air transportation challenges. Sponsored by the William J. Hughes Technical Center for Advanced Aerospace in Atlantic City, New Jersey, this BAA is open for ten years from December 5, 2024, through December 4, 2034. The scope of work spans five primary program branches: Fire Safety, Airport Technology, R&D Software and Systems, Structures and Propulsion, and Separation Standards Analysis. Key research interests include the future of oversight using AI/ML and Safety Management Systems, as well as advancements in airport pavement design, construction, and management, such as hydrogen aviation safety and concrete strength evaluation. Awards are primarily based on scientific and technical merit, relevance to agency missions, and funds availability. While the FAA may use various contract types, it has historically utilized Other Transaction Agreements (OTA). Individual projects typically have a period of performance between 12 and 36 months, with a general limit that tasks exceeding three years will not be considered. Funding is generally provided annually, with rough order of magnitude estimates varying by project, ranging from $200,000 to $3,000,000 per fiscal year. Eligible offerors must be registered in SAM.gov and provide a two-volume proposal consisting of a technical volume (maximum 25 pages) and a price/cost volume (maximum 10 pages).

Command Wide Broad Agency Announcement for Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) Research, Development, Testing, and Evaluation
Solicitation # N39430-26-S-5000
This Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) enables research, development, testing, and evaluation (RDT&E) efforts across thirteen technical topic areas critical to advancing naval expeditionary, shore, and underwater capabilities. The solicitation, identified as N39430-26-S-5000 and governed under FAR 6.102(d)(2) and FAR 35.016, is open for one year with annual renewal and seeks proposals in applied research (Category 6.2), advanced technology development (Category 6.3), or advanced component development and prototypes (Category 6.4). Topics span expeditionary construction and battle damage repair, logistics over the shore, waterfront and undersea facilities, shore energy systems, cybersecurity for facility controls, installation restoration and environmental compliance, marine species protection, marine energy development, and physical security technologies including tamper-detection and asset tracking systems. Offerors must align their proposed technologies with one or more of these priority areas to be considered for funding. Abstract submissions are limited to ten pages and must include CVs for the principal investigator and key personnel, submitted via email to designated NAVFAC EXWC contacts. Proposals undergo peer review based on scientific and technical merit, offeror qualifications, cost and schedule feasibility, and alignment with current command priorities and available resources. A critical requirement is registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) to obtain a Unique Entity Identifier, without which no award can be made. Funding is not reserved in advance; instead, qualifying abstracts are shared with other federal agencies to seek sponsorship, meaning submissions carry no guarantee of financial support. Offerors are advised to avoid including sensitive or proprietary information due to potential dissemination to third-party reviewers. Abstracts remain active for one year from submission, with notification of next steps typically provided within three months; unnotified submitters are assumed non-selected. Performance is expected to be coordinated from Port Hueneme, California, and includes attendance at an annual in-progress review in Santa Barbara, limited to two representatives per team. No contract clauses, fixed pricing, or set-asides are defined at this stage, and awards, when made, will likely follow cost-reimbursement mechanisms typical for RDT&E programs.
