BEamspace Analog processing for Multi-functional Enhanced RF Systems (BEAMERS)
Solicitation # DARPA-PS-27-05
The BEamspace Analog processing for Multi-functional Enhanced RF Systems (BEAMERS) program, managed by the DARPA Strategic Technology Office, is a two-phase research and development effort to create scalable, power-efficient, receive-only electronic support systems. The primary objective is to develop a prototype staring electromagnetic support system capable of providing continuous spectral and spatial coverage across a wide frequency span of 1-110 GHz without the need for sequential scanning. The project is structured as an Other Transaction Agreement for Prototypes with a maximum period of performance of 15 months. Phase 1 focuses on a baseline prototype using 1x8 one-dimensional apertures to demonstrate complete receive chains, while Phase 2 scales this architecture to 8x8 two-dimensional aperture band-tiles. Administered through the Wide Area Workflow system, the contract requires performers to be small businesses, nontraditional defense contractors, or nonprofit research institutions. Due to the sensitive nature of the work, offerors must provide a Company CAGE Code, CMMC compliance status, and facility clearance status to access classified materials. Key requirements include the protection of Covered Defense Information and strict adherence to cybersecurity incident reporting. Proposals are subject to a deadline of January 8, 2027, with specific evaluation criteria and full proposal instructions contained within a classified addendum. Payments are processed by the Defense Finance and Accounting Services within 30 days of an accepted invoice.

Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-137
The Firefox program, managed by the DARPA Biological Technologies Office, is a 36-month, three-phase initiative seeking to develop a 100-channel, non-invasive brain-computer interface with 50-micron spatial and 100-microsecond temporal resolution. The program focuses on two primary technical hurdles: the creation of components for dynamic rastering and scanning of coherent optical signals to target multiple regions of interest, and the development of non-digital data processing architectures capable of handling high data rates and computational burdens. Multiple awards are anticipated, with funding ranging between 4 million and 7 million dollars per award. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction for Prototype agreements under 10 U.S.C. 4022, utilizing a milestone-based payment schedule. The selection process is multi-staged, beginning with an abstract evaluation based on technical comprehension, technical ability, and budget realism, followed by an Oral Presentation Proposal for selected candidates. Proposers must be registered in the System for Award Management and possess a Unique Entity Identifier. Key compliance requirements include adherence to ANSI laser safety limits for human tissue exposure, Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification, and strict guidelines regarding organizational conflicts of interest and foreign influence risk assessments.
