PS26239 - RAF015/2627 - Plug-in batteries safety study
Solicitation # PS26239
The Department for Energy Security & Net Zero, through UK Shared Business Services, is seeking a provider to conduct a safety study on plug-in batteries with up to 800 W AC mains output for domestic use in the UK. The primary objective is to generate independent technical evidence to inform the legalisation of these batteries under the Plugs and Sockets etc. (Safety) Regulations 1994 and the Electricity Safety, Quality and Continuity Regulations 2002. The project is divided into two phases, with Phase 1 focusing on desk-based research and lab-based tests to evaluate fire and electrical safety risks across various installation configurations, including standalone units and DC-coupled systems. Phase 2 may extend research to conventional electrician-installed home battery systems to refine existing standards. The contract has an estimated budget of 300,000 GBP excluding VAT, with a performance period running from November 9, 2026, to March 31, 2028. Bidders must utilize reputable test facilities, preferably with UKAS accreditation, and adhere to recognized standards such as BS EN 62619. Evaluation is based on a combination of commercial and non-commercial criteria, with a mandatory minimum quality threshold of 60 for the facilities and flexibility requirement. All bids must be submitted via the Jaggaer eSourcing Portal by October 7, 2026, at 11:00. Compliance with Government Security Classifications and the Modern Slavery Act 2015 is required.

The contract is for environmental and qualification testing to validate the performance of CSG systems under extreme space and strategic conditions, including vibration, shock, thermal vacuum, radiation, and lifecycle testing. These tests are essential to ensure the system’s reliability and functionality when exposed to the harsh environments encountered in aerospace and defense missions. The work will be performed in Albuquerque, and the contract is structured as a subcontract under the Department of Defense, specifically managed by the Air Force Research Laboratory under the FA9453 contract line. The NAICS code 541380 indicates that the services fall under other scientific and technical consulting services. The solicitation was posted on April 24, 2026, with a response deadline of May 27, 2026, at 6:00 PM. No set-aside provisions or specific organization type requirements are indicated, meaning the opportunity is open to eligible subcontractors without restrictions based on small business status or other classifications. The contract does not include a designated point of contact, and the place of performance remains in Albuquerque without additional geographic details. Interested parties must submit proposals before the deadline to compete for this testing services opportunity, which is critical for mission-critical systems requiring rigorous qualification under simulated space and strategic conditions.

Neutron Strategic Technology Advanced Research (Neutron-STAR) Advanced Research Announcement (ARA)
Solicitation # FA9453-23-R-A004
The Neutron Strategic Technology Advanced Research (Neutron STAR) Advanced Research Announcement (ARA), solicitation FA9453-23-R-A004, is an open call by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Geo Space Division for innovative research and development to enhance national nuclear deterrence operations. Operating under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 4023 for experimental purposes, the program seeks white papers and proposals across five key technical areas: nuclear system development, nuclear systems integration, nuclear system flight experimentation and evaluation, nuclear explosion monitoring, and nuclear command, control, and communication. The acquisition utilizes a hybrid approach, combining an open request for white papers with individual one-step or two-step solicitations. Awards may be issued through various instruments, including FAR-based contracts, Other Transaction (OT) agreements, or assistance instruments such as grants and cooperative agreements. The solicitation process typically follows a two-step procedure where unclassified white papers and Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimates are evaluated for technical merit and value before full proposals are requested. Evaluation is based on a best-value determination, focusing on scientific soundness and relevance to mission needs. Key requirements for offerors include registration in the System for Award Management (SAM), submission of a Security Program Questionnaire, and certification of current and pending support for key personnel. The program maintains an unrestricted ceiling for the overarching announcement, with individual awards determined by funding availability and proposal quality. Administrative support is provided by designated contractors, and prospective offerors are encouraged to maintain dialogue with government representatives throughout the process.

STAR-FISH CALL 017 - Secure By Design
Solicitation # FA945326XA001
The Air Force Research Laboratory Space Vehicles Directorate is soliciting white papers under CALL 017 of the Space Technology Advanced Research - Fast-tracking Innovative Software and Hardware (STAR-FISH) program, specifically for the Secure by Design Space Vehicle (SDSV) initiative. The objective is to mitigate cyber threats to critical space missions, including PNT, MW/MT, ISR, and SATCOM, by researching and demonstrating a cyber-hardened space vehicle system. This effort involves the design and construction of a space vehicle flat-sat and cyber range, the integration of Cyber-Hardened Satellite Software (CHSS), and the execution of both ground-based and on-orbit experimentation. The project is structured with a 12-month base period and multiple option years, with an estimated total funding of 14 million dollars spanning fiscal years 2027 through 2030. The procurement follows a two-step process, beginning with the submission of unclassified white papers and rough order of magnitude cost estimates by 1600 MST on 12 October 2026 via DoD Safe. Selected offerors will then be invited to submit full proposals. Anticipated awards will be Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) contracts. Evaluation is based on a peer or scientific review process focusing on problem definition, scientific and engineering viability, and relevance to AFRL needs. Requirements include a valid SAM registration under NAICS 541715, an approved accounting system, and the submission of an Organizational Conflict of Interest analysis. Security requirements range from CUI to Secret, and the effort is subject to strict US export control laws and OPSEC protections.
