CRFQ-0313-DEP2700000006-3 | DLR - Starlink Mini, or equal, Satellite Internet Service
Solicitation # CRFQ 0313 DEP2700000006
The West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection, Division of Land Restoration, is establishing an open-end contract for the procurement of 40 All-in-One Portable Satellite Internet Terminals, specifically Starlink Mini or an equivalent model. The scope includes the hardware kits, one-time activation and set-up fees, and ongoing monthly data service and support plans. Each kit must be ruggedized for field use with a minimum IP54 rating, capable of operating between -20°C and +50°C, and include a 15-meter DC power cable, kickstand, pipe adapter, flat mount, and a dust-tight plug. Technical requirements specify a minimum download speed of 100 Mbps, an upload speed of 10 Mbps, and a monthly data allocation of at least 50 GB per unit, with speeds throttled to 1 Mbps upon reaching the cap to avoid automatic overage charges. The contract will be awarded to the vendor meeting all technical specifications at the lowest overall total cost. Vendors must provide 24/7 telephone and email support with a maximum response time of four hours and grant the agency access to a customer portal for real-time performance metrics. Administrative requirements include consolidated monthly billing, payment via electronic funds transfer or P-Card, and a minimum 24-month limited warranty per unit.

SATELLITE TELEVISION PROGRAMMING SERVICES
Solicitation # 36C26127Q0113
The Department of Veterans Affairs is soliciting quotes for satellite television programming services for the VA Palo Alto Health Care System. This procurement is a 100% set-aside for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) under NAICS code 517410. The contract consists of a base period and four option years, with a total duration not to exceed five years. The scope of work requires a programming solution providing at least 100 channels, including specific regional sports and San Francisco Bay Area local programming, and the integration of a head-end solution with the existing Master Antenna Television infrastructure. A critical requirement is the maintenance of uninterrupted service during a 90-day transition period from the existing system to new equipment. Quotes will be evaluated based on best value, considering technical approach, past performance—with a preference for healthcare or hospital facility experience—and price. To be eligible, offerors must be SBA-certified SDVOSBs with active SAM registration and must provide pricing for every CLIN. Submissions must include a technical volume detailing the transition plan, equipment approach, channel compliance, and maintenance procedures, along with a completed SF 1449 and the VAAR 852.219-75 certification. All quotes must be submitted electronically to the contract specialist by December 9, 2026, at 11:00 AM PST.

Space Environment Technologies and Science (SETS) Broad Agency Announcement (BAA)
Solicitation # FA9453-23-R-X001
The Space Environment Technologies and Science (SETS) Program is a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) issued by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) under NAICS 541715. The program seeks research and development to understand, quantify, and mitigate the impacts of the space environment on Department of Defense and national security systems. The scope is divided into five primary technical areas: Solar, Solar Wind, and Ionospheric Effects; Thermosphere, Satellite Drag and the Reentry Environment; Plasma Physics and Chemistry; Particle Effects and Radiation Belt Environment; and the Cislunar Environment. The objective is to enhance the capability to predict and exploit environmental effects that could disrupt operational systems, including impacts on spacecraft, radar, and positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) systems. This is a closed BAA that remains active for eight years, with specific requirements and deadlines issued through individual Calls. Proposals may follow a one-step or two-step process, with the latter requiring an initial white paper for evaluation based on technical merit and affordability. Deliverables vary by Call but typically include hardware, software, prototypes, and technical reports. All offerors must maintain active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM) and provide a Unique Entity Identification number. Depending on the specific Call, some efforts may require a U.S. security clearance of Secret or higher and a classified facility clearance. Award selection is based primarily on overall scientific and technical merit, subject to the availability of funds.

Neutron Strategic Technology Advanced Research (Neutron-STAR) Advanced Research Announcement (ARA)
Solicitation # FA9453-23-R-A004
The Neutron Strategic Technology Advanced Research (Neutron STAR) Advanced Research Announcement (ARA), solicitation FA9453-23-R-A004, is an open call issued by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Geo Space Division. Utilizing the authority of 10 U.S.C. 4023 for Procurement for Experimental Purposes, the program seeks innovative research and development to enhance national nuclear deterrence capabilities. The scope is divided into five primary technical topic areas: nuclear system development, nuclear systems integration, nuclear system flight experimentation and evaluation, nuclear explosion monitoring, and nuclear command, control, and communication. The solicitation employs a hybrid approach, featuring an open request for white papers alongside potential one-step or two-step individual solicitations. For the open announcement, interested parties must first submit an unclassified white paper and a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate to the Neutron STAR Org Mailbox. These submissions are evaluated based on technical merit and best value, with successful candidates invited to submit full technical and cost proposals. Awards may be issued through various instruments, including FAR-based contracts, Other Transactions (OT), or assistance instruments such as grants and cooperative agreements. Submission dates are currently indefinite, and the announcement remains active until further notice. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and are required to submit a Security Program Questionnaire and Standard Form 424 for key personnel to assess Science and Technology protection risks. The program maintains an unrestricted ceiling, and the government anticipates making multiple awards based on technical soundness, cost realism, and funding availability.
