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 White Papers: Intelligence Resource Execution and Oversight (Project Argus)
Solicitation # HQ0034279R001
The Under Secretary of War for Intelligence and Security (USW(I&S)) is seeking a prototype solution under Project Argus to replace the legacy Budget and Intelligence Related Database (BIRD). The objective is to implement a modern, flexible, and extensible platform for the ingestion, cataloguing, analysis, and visualization of intelligence resource data to support senior leader decision-making and reduce manual workloads. Core requirements include a financial management query tool supported by Super Intelligence, user-defined visual dashboards, and a Congressional Justification Book (CJB) Generator. The system must be capable of operating across multiple classification levels, from unclassified development to Secret and Top Secret networks, and must remain transportable and operable across Impact Levels 2 through 7. The project requires a high level of security compliance, including TS/SCI facility and personnel clearances, and adherence to the Risk Management Framework, NIST, and DISA STIGs. Performance will take place primarily at the Pentagon and contractor-provided sites, with a requirement for direct, on-site engagement between developers and government analysts. The proposed system should be ready for deployment by September 2027, with the contractor providing at least 12 months of on-site sustainment following transition. If the new system is not ready by the deadline, the contractor must be able to sustain the legacy BIRD system on-site. This acquisition is being conducted via a structured competitive process using Other Transaction authorities. Interested respondents must submit a white paper by November 13, 2026, which will be evaluated in phases based on relevance, technical merit, feasibility, and schedule. Award decisions will be based on Best Value, considering technical merit, cost, and the potential benefits to the Government.
