Common Autonomous Multi-Domain Launcher (CAML)-Lite Prototype Effort
Solicitation # W50RAJ27CAML_LITE
The Common Autonomous Multi-Domain Launcher (CAML)-Lite Prototype Effort is a two-phase competitive process under 10 U.S.C. 4022 to develop a mobile, autonomous launcher capability for worldwide deployment and cross-domain fires. The program utilizes a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) to increase survivability and reduce manned support requirements. Phase 1 focuses on a prototype demonstration at Talisman Sabre 2027 in August 2027, with options for additional prototype units, New Equipment Training, and Contractor Logistics Support. Phase 2 centers on prototype maturation and integration into a common CAML architecture. The government is currently soliciting Solutions Briefs, which must be submitted as a searchable PDF not exceeding 15 pages. Evaluation will be based on technical performance, speed of prototype delivery, potential property rights, and the acceptance of minimum Right to Repair requirements, rather than solely on the lowest cost. Selected respondents will be invited to submit a Request for Prototype Proposal (RFPP). Awardees must assume full responsibility for transporting systems to Australia, ensuring compliance with international customs, biosecurity, and explosive ordnance licensing. Key requirements for the performer include providing a Safety Assessment Report, obtaining a cybersecurity Authority to Operate, and ensuring the system can be maintained without reliance on military personnel.

Fast Assessment of Solutions, Therapeutics, Pharmaceuticals, and SupplieS (FASTPASS) Innovative Solutions Opening
Solicitation # ARPA-H-SOL-26-160
The Fast Assessment of Solutions, Therapeutics, Pharmaceuticals, and Supplies (FASTPASS) program, under solicitation ARPA-H-SOL-26-160, is an initiative by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to develop a near real-time, non-destructive, AI-enabled screening system. The goal is to identify contamination, adulteration, and quality defects in pharmaceutical products through their packaging at ports of entry and other supply-chain nodes using multi-modal sensing and data fusion. This 54-month program is structured into three 18-month phases, culminating in a fieldable platform with validated training materials and integrated documentation capabilities. This procurement is conducted as a multiple-award Other Transaction (OT) Agreement rather than a standard federal contract, meaning it is governed by specific OT articles instead of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. Awards are based on the most advantageous proposals, with primary evaluation factors including innovation, soundness, execution planning, risk management, and team expertise. Payments are fixed and triggered by the successful completion of milestones, managed through the Payment Management System. Proposers must be registered in SAM.gov and provide detailed technical and cost proposals, including a milestone payment schedule and research security disclosures. Amendment 01 specifically updated the cost proposal narrative model and workbook to correct typographical errors and rename appendices.

Selected offerors will then be invited to submit full proposals. The government anticipates awarding multiple Cost Plus Fixed Fee contracts with a total estimated funding of 14 million dollars distributed from fiscal years 2027 through 2030. Awards will include a base period and two option periods. Eligible offerors must operate under NAICS code 541715 and maintain an approved accounting system. Submissions must be made via DoD Safe using the provided template and include the company's Unique Entity ID and CAGE code. Evaluation will be based on a weight of scientific evidence approach, prioritizing technical merit, relevance to DOD missions, and cost realism. Security requirements range from CUI to Secret, and offerors must perform an Organizational Conflict of Interest analysis as part of their submission.
