ETHEREAL FORGE: Call for Participation – Test & Evaluation of Advanced Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) Capabilities

Solicitation # FA221721389XX

The ETHEREAL FORGE initiative, managed by the Department of Defense under solicitation FA221721389XX, seeks to test and evaluate advanced Electromagnetic Warfare capabilities that conform to the Modular Open Systems Approach. The primary goal is to assess modular hardware and software components against realistic threats to accelerate the fielding of next-generation Electromagnetic Spectrum Operations systems. By utilizing open standards such as SOSA, CMOSS, FACE, VITA, and AMS-GRA, the program aims to create a rapid, iterative process for sensing and engaging within the electromagnetic environment. Key outcomes of this effort include conducting Technology Readiness Assessments for candidate software and hardware, generating data to inform future budgeting and acquisition cycles, and developing prototype infrastructure to streamline testing. This special notice was posted on August 27, 2026, with a response deadline of October 10, 2026.

Federal Protective Service (FPS) Network Scanning Tool

Solicitation # 70RSAT26RFI000028

The Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate, through the Homeland Security Advanced Research Projects Agency, is conducting market research to develop a portable, agentless network scanning tool for the Federal Protective Service. The objective is to create a solution capable of real-time discovery and inventory of Information Technology, Internet of Things, and Operational Technology assets, specifically for use in environments lacking centralized monitoring. The selected contractor will be responsible for the design, development, testing, and delivery of the tool, including a user interface, comprehensive documentation, and training materials. The tool must integrate with existing inventory and reporting systems and comply with federal cybersecurity standards such as FISMA and NIST. The project is estimated at a total cost of 2,000,000 dollars with a performance period of twelve months from the date of award. While the tool must be durable and portable, the government has clarified that a ruggedized transport case is sufficient for the electronic components, and individual components do not require independent ruggedization. This effort is currently in the Request for Information stage under NAICS code 541715 to identify qualified sources and evaluate technical capabilities, including the use of Best-in-Class vehicles. Access to sensitive or classified information is not required for the execution of this statement of work.

Stryker Family of Vehicles Commercial Solutions Opening

Solicitation # W912CH-26-S-0010

The Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) under solicitation W912CH-26-S-0010, issued by the Army Contracting Command – Detroit Arsenal for the Program Manager Stryker Brigade Combat Team, is designed to accelerate the acquisition of innovative commercial technologies to modernize the Stryker Family of Vehicles. This CSO remains open until May 7, 2031, but companies cannot submit proposals directly in response to this announcement; instead, they must monitor SAM.gov for individual Areas of Interest (AoIs), which serve as the only authorized portals for proposal submissions. Each AoI will define specific needs, deadlines, and delivery requirements, with proposals evaluated under a streamlined, multi-phase process: submission of a Solution Brief, optional presentation or pitch, and finally, a full Commercial Solution Proposal. Proposals must be submitted in two separate volumes—Technical and Price—with the Technical Volume capped at 20 pages and the Solution Brief limited to either five pages or fifteen slides. All submissions must be unclassified, in Word or PDF format, and submitted exclusively through the active AoI posting on SAM.gov. Awards under this CSO may take the form of FAR Part 12 Fixed-Price contracts or Other Transaction Authority (OTA) agreements under 10 U.S.C. 4022, with no reimbursement for proposal development costs. The evaluation is non-LPTA and based on a trade-off approach considering eight factors in descending order of importance: solution relevance, technical merit, innovation level, technical risk, cost risk, schedule risk, company viability, and intellectual property/data rights risk. Offerors must have a valid Unique Entity ID and be registered in SAM.gov, and must submit a Warranties and Representations form to establish eligibility. While no socioeconomic certifications are required, foreign-owned entities must be able to obtain necessary security clearances to access prescribed information. Payment will be processed through WAWF, and the contracting officer contacts are Marta Furman and Taylor Ferguson. The Government may negotiate follow-on production contracts without competition after successful prototype development, and no formal contract value or line-item pricing is specified in this solicitation, as pricing and scope are defined per AoI. The place of performance and delivery terms vary by AoI, with Michigan's Detroit Arsenal area serving as the contracting office location.
