Mobile Integrated Launch Capability

Solicitation # 26-MDA-12366

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is soliciting innovative and cost-efficient alternatives to current C-17 air drop target launches through the Mobile Integrated Launch Capability (MILC) program. The objective is to develop mobile launch platforms capable of deploying short to long-range target missile systems, including ballistic, air-breathing, and maneuvering targets, from various global locations via ground, sea, or air. This effort is structured in two phases: Phase I focuses on detailed design, engagement analysis, and prototype costing with an objective period of three months; Phase II involves prototyping, ground testing, and the delivery of one launch platform for a demonstration launch, with an objective period of twelve months. The solicitation follows a two-step competitive process based on the evaluation of white papers, which are judged on technical merit, innovation, potential utility to agency programs, schedule adherence, and lifecycle cost. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management and maintain an active Secret Facility Clearance to handle classified information. Procurement may be executed through Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation (RFO) based contracts or Other Transaction (OT) agreements, the latter of which prioritize commercial industry standards. Submissions must include a detailed program plan, a Rough Order of Magnitude cost estimate, and a full disclosure of any organizational conflicts of interest.

MTEC Solicitation Summary: Fiscal Year 2026 Multi-Topic Request for Project Proposals

Solicitation # MTEC-26-04-MultiTopic

The Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC), in collaboration with the Defense Health Agency, is soliciting project proposals under solicitation MTEC-26-04-MultiTopic for medical prototype technological and knowledge solutions. Authorized under 10 U.S.C. section 4022 and utilizing an Other Transaction Agreement, this effort seeks to modernize medical capabilities to maintain force readiness and soldier lethality in future multi-domain conflicts. The solicitation covers 16 distinct Focus Areas, including behavioral health, physical fitness, wound infection prevention, sepsis treatment, musculoskeletal injury interventions, non-addictive analgesics, blast and blunt impact sensors, and a multisite clinical biomarker platform for lung and kidney failure. Proposals are submitted via a two-stage Enhanced White Paper process, where selected Stage 1 submissions are invited to provide full cost proposals in Stage 2. To be eligible, projects must demonstrate clear military relevance, meet a minimum Knowledge/Technology Readiness Level of 3, and fit the specific definition of a prototype rather than being exploratory. Additionally, solutions must not have been submitted to MTEC within the last two years. While average initial awards range from 2.0 to 3.5 million dollars over a two to three year period, specific funding and performance periods vary by Focus Area. Teaming is encouraged, and successful projects may be eligible for non-competitive follow-on tasks.

Atomically Precise Molecules (APM)

Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-141

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Multi X Office is soliciting proposals for the Atomically Precise Molecules (APM) program under solicitation DARPA-PS-26-141. The program aims to develop innovative synthesis techniques for programmable precision polymers (PPPs) and nonlinear optical (NLO) materials to overcome performance gaps in optical communications and LiDAR. The primary objective is the creation of scalable, fit-for-purpose materials, culminating in a prototype demonstration of a revolutionary NLO material integrated into a government-provided electro-optic modulator. Research focusing solely on inorganic materials or incremental improvements to the state-of-the-art is specifically excluded. This 36-month effort is structured in two technical phases, with Phase I focusing on developing PPP synthesis capabilities over the first 12 months. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction (OT) for Prototype Agreements under 10 U.S.C. 4022. Key requirements include CMMC Level 2 self-assessment compliance and adherence to a program-specific Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) guide. Non-US organizations, FFRDCs, UARCs, and government entities are ineligible to serve as prime performers, though FFRDCs and UARCs may participate as subawardees provided they meet specific certification and conflict of interest mitigation requirements. Proposals must be submitted via the Broad Agency Announcement Tool (BAAT) by December 18, 2026. Submissions must include a technical and management volume, a price proposal with a detailed spreadsheet, a Task Description Document, and a schedule of milestones and payments. Evaluation will be based on the technical approach, relevance to the DARPA mission, budget realism, and the capability to transition the technology to military or commercial sectors. Payments are milestone-based and processed through the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) system.

Request for Supply Arrangement for South Coast Salmon Monitoring and Biological Support

Solicitation # 30004087A

Fisheries and Oceans Canada (DFO) is establishing a Supply Arrangement (SA) for South Coast Salmon Monitoring and Biological Support services in British Columbia. This arrangement creates a pool of qualified firms to provide services on an as-and-when-requested basis across three geographic zones covering Vancouver Island, the Mainland Inlets, and the Sunshine Coast. The scope of work is divided into four categories: population monitoring, fishery monitoring, habitat monitoring, and population, fishery, and habitat analysis. The SA is open for ongoing qualification until June 30, 2028, with the overall period of performance extending to December 31, 2028. The procurement is divided into two streams: a General Stream subject to the Canadian Free Trade Agreement and a PSIB Stream set aside specifically for Indigenous businesses. Selection is based on a minimum point rating system, requiring bidders to meet all mandatory technical criteria, including a minimum of 24 months of relative experience for targeted activities. Rather than fixed pricing, suppliers must provide ceiling rates for resources, which DFO may negotiate downward based on specific task requirements. Subsequent contracts will be issued through a tiered system based on value, ranging from $25,001 to over $100,000. There are no security requirements for this arrangement, though contractors are responsible for all personal safety and must provide insurance certificates upon award.
