Atomically Precise Molecules (APM)
Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-141
The Atomically Precise Molecules (APM) program, solicitation DARPA-PS-26-141, is a 36-month initiative by the DARPA Multi X Office seeking innovative synthesis techniques for programmable precision polymers (PPPs) and nonlinear optical (NLO) materials. The program aims to develop scalable materials with strictly controlled monomer sequences and compositions, culminating in a prototype NLO material integrated into a government-provided electro-optic modulator capable of achieving greater than 1THz modulation. The effort is structured in two phases, with Phase I lasting 12 months and focusing on synthesis capabilities. Research limited to inorganic materials or incremental improvements to existing state-of-the-art practices is specifically excluded. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction for Prototype Agreements, with payments processed through the Wide Area Workflow system based on a schedule of milestones. Proposals are due by December 18, 2026, via the Broad Agency Announcement Tool and must include technical, management, and pricing volumes. Eligibility is restricted to U.S. organizations, and all performers must comply with CMMC Level 2 self-certification and NIST SP 800-171 standards for safeguarding Controlled Unclassified Information. Evaluation will be based on technical approach, relevance to the DARPA mission, budget realism, and the capability to transition the technology to military or commercial sectors.

Request for Proposal (RFP) - Resilient Missile Warning Tracking (RMWT) Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Ground Entry Points (GEPs)
Solicitation # FA240126R0003
The Space Development Agency is soliciting proposals under solicitation FA240126R0003 for the Resilient Missile Warning Tracking (RMWT) Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Ground Entry Points (GEPs) effort. This IDIQ contract, which has a ceiling of 369 million dollars, covers the detailed design, civil engineering, procurement, installation, integration, and maintenance of GEP sites at multiple globally dispersed locations. The scope of work specifically includes the delivery of communications shelters, RF antennas and electronics, optical terminals and electronics, networking equipment, and software, as well as the development of Test Ground Support Equipment and Auxiliary Development Units. The acquisition utilizes a best-value tradeoff source selection process where technical, management, and past performance factors are significantly more important than price. Proposals are due by 4:00 PM Eastern Time on November 23, 2026, and must be submitted in seven volumes via the DoD Secure Access File Exchange. The contract structure includes a base period from March 31, 2027, to March 30, 2028, with an option period extending to March 30, 2029, and an overall ordering period through September 30, 2031. Pricing is a mix of Firm-Fixed-Price for labor and materials and Cost-Reimbursable for other direct costs and travel. Key compliance requirements include adherence to CMMC Level requirements, safeguarding of covered defense information per DFARS 252.204-7012, and a minimum small business participation requirement of 5 percent for large business offerors. Contractors must also implement unique item identification based on MIL-STD-130 and follow MIL-STD-129 for shipment and storage labeling. All invoicing and payment processing will be conducted through the Wide Area WorkFlow system.

Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) for Space Domain Awareness (SDA) Solutions.
Solicitation # FA2518-25-S-C001
The United States Space Force, through the Space Acquisition and Integration Office, is executing a Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) under solicitation FA2518-25-S-C001 to acquire innovative commercial technologies, products, and services that enhance Space Domain Awareness (SDA). The program focuses on improving the ability to detect, characterize, attribute, predict, and target activities in the space domain. This long-term mechanism remains open for five years and utilizes a multi-phase submission process consisting of an initial white paper and PowerPoint briefing, an optional pitch session, and a final full proposal package. Awards are made as FAR-based fixed-price contracts, and the government reserves the right to award some, all, or none of the proposed solutions. A primary focus of the current effort is Area of Interest (AOI) 2025_01, titled Advanced SDA Tools for Research and Analytics (ASTRA), which is a 100 percent small business set-aside. This specific AOI emphasizes research, development, and prototyping for scalable data management, modeling, and agile software prototyping, with an estimated combined funding pool of 1.5 million dollars across related AOIs and a period of performance not exceeding 12 months. Phase I submissions must be unclassified, though subsequent phases may require higher classification levels. Offerors must comply with NIST SP 800-171 and CMMC 2.0 requirements, particularly if handling Controlled Unclassified Information. Participation is restricted to U.S. entities due to national security and export control considerations.

Request for Information - DCSA Personnel Vetting (PV) Fieldwork Services Requirement
Solicitation # RFIPVField2027
The Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) to gather industry feedback for a Personnel Vetting (PV) Fieldwork Services requirement. The scope involves providing all labor and cleared personnel necessary to conduct background investigations and PV products using the Personnel Investigations Processing System (PIPS). The proposed contract structure consists of a five-year base period followed by five one-year option periods. While the work will primarily leverage virtual capabilities, the contractor must be capable of providing in-person interviews across the United States and potentially internationally, including support for various languages. The government intends to use a best-value tradeoff evaluation across two distinct tracks. Workload allocation will initially be based on the lowest unit price, with semi-annual performance evaluations using a dynamic points system that weights price, timeliness of delivery, quality of products, and pending inventory age. Strict security and cybersecurity standards are required, including CMMC Level 2 Third-Party Assessment compliance and adherence to DFARS 252.204-7012 for safeguarding covered defense information. All materials containing personally identifiable information must follow rigorous double-wrapping, manifesting, and tracking protocols. The government maintains final authority over the inspection and acceptance of all investigative products based on DCSA policies and quality assessment standards.
