All submissions must adhere to strict formatting requirements, including a single PDF submission not exceeding five pages or fifteen slides, with mandatory inclusion of an executive summary, company information, and rough order of magnitude cost and schedule estimates. Offerors must be registered in SAM, use WAWF for invoicing, and comply with stringent data storage and security requirements, including U.S.-only data hosting and full organizational conflict of interest disclosures. The solicitation encourages participation from small businesses, nontraditional defense contractors, and nonprofit research institutions, with specific certifications required through the Affirmation of Business Status Certification. Performance may occur at government facilities including Aberdeen Proving Ground and other CONUS/OCONUS locations as directed, with award timing anticipated in fiscal year 2026, and support expected through 2032. No fixed contract value is provided, as pricing is determined through competitive evaluation of commercial proposals under the solicitation's open-ended structure.

Market forecast analyses for West Nile virus (WNV) vaccine and anti-WNV monoclonal antibody for prophylaxis
Solicitation # 97469
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, is soliciting quotations for Request for Quotation (RFQ) No. 75D301-26-Q-79208. The objective is to acquire two comprehensive market forecast analyses focusing on a human West Nile virus (WNV) vaccine and an anti-WNV monoclonal antibody for seasonal pre-exposure prophylaxis. This acquisition will be awarded as a Time-and-Materials (T&M) purchase order with a 12-month period of performance from September 30, 2026, to September 29, 2027. The scope of work includes epidemiologic data synthesis, health economic modeling, stakeholder engagement via structured interviews, and the preparation of peer-reviewed publications to disseminate findings to the scientific community. The award will be based on the best-value procurement process, where technical approach, management approach, organizational experience, and past performance are significantly more important than price. Technical evaluation will focus on the contractor's ability to develop transparent forecasting models and integrate complex clinical, commercial, and policy data. Required labor categories for the T&M contract include a Principal Investigator, Postdoctoral Fellow, Health Economist, and Research Analyst. Offerors must provide a completed pricing schedule, written acknowledgement of the Statement of Work, and proof of active SAM registration. All quotes must be submitted to the contracting specialist by September 2, 2026, at 10:00 AM EST.

The High-performance Optimized Recycled Nuclear Isotopes for Gen IV reactors (HORNIG) program, identified by solicitation number DE-FOA-0003623, is a funding opportunity issued by ARPA-E within the Department of Energy to advance transformative technologies that enable the production and utilization of recycled nuclear isotopes for next-generation reactor systems. This modification revises key operational timelines, including deadlines for submitting questions and full applications, ensuring clarity and structure for applicants. The program targets high-risk, high-reward research aimed at bridging scientific discovery with early-stage technological development, focusing on innovations that cannot be adequately pursued through traditional industry or DOE applied research channels. Funding is governed under 2 C.F.R. Part 200 as supplemented by 2 C.F.R. Part 910, and proposals must align with ARPA-E’s mandate to catalyze breakthroughs in energy and environmental technologies through modest, time-bound investments. The solicitation is open to federal entities and carries no set-aside designations, with a firm application deadline of August 6, 2026 at 1:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Applications must be submitted through the FedConnect portal, and all awarded projects are subject to ARPA-E’s oversight and reporting requirements under its statutory authority derived from the America COMPETES Act and the Energy Act of 2020. The program emphasizes the development of novel methods to recover, purify, and optimize nuclear isotopes from existing nuclear materials, with the goal of enhancing the efficiency, safety, and sustainability of Generation IV reactors. Proposals are expected to demonstrate clear pathways to transformative impact, distinct from incremental improvements, and must align with ARPA-E’s mission of accelerating technologies with potential for substantial national energy benefit.

This is Modification 01 to the NOFO: • Inserted certain deadlines and updated dates, including the deadlines for submitting questions and Full Applications (Basic Information, Section IV.C). NOFO Number: DE-FOA-0003623 – High-performance Optimized Recycled Nuclear Isotopes for Gen IV reactors (HORNIG) Agency Overview: The Advanced Research Projects Agency—Energy (ARPA-E), an organization within the Department of Energy (DOE), is chartered by Congress in the America COMPETES Act of 2007 (Public Law 110–69), as amended by the America COMPETES Reauthorization Act of 2010 (Public Law 111–358), as further amended by the Energy Act of 2020 (Public Law 116–260). ARPA-E issues this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) under its authorizing statute codified at 42 U.S.C. § 16538. The NOFO and any cooperative agreements or grants made under this NOFO are subject to 2 C.F.R. Part 200 as supplemented by 2 C.F.R. Part 910. ARPA-E funds research on, and the development of, transformative science and technology solutions to address the energy and environmental missions of the Department. The agency focuses on technologies that can be meaningfully advanced with a modest investment over a defined period of time in order to catalyze the translation from scientific discovery into early-stage technology. For the latest news and information about ARPA-E, its programs and the research projects currently supported, see: http://arpa-e.energy.gov/. ARPA-E funds transformational research. Existing energy technologies generally progress on established “learning curves” where refinements to a technology and the economies of scale that accrue as manufacturing and distribution develop drive improvements to the cost/performance metric in a gradual fashion. This continual improvement of a technology is important to its increased commercial deployment and is appropriately the focus of the private sector or the applied technology offices within DOE. In contrast, ARPA-E
