AI Contract Overview
The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is soliciting innovative and cost-efficient alternatives to current air drop C-17 target launches through the Mobile Integrated Launch Capability (MILC) program. The objective is to develop mobile launch platforms capable of deploying short to long range target missile systems from any location worldwide to increase launch cadence and reduce lifecycle costs. This effort is structured in two phases: Phase I focuses on detailed design, engagement analysis, and prototype costing with an objective period of performance of three to six months; Phase II involves prototyping, ground testing, and the delivery of one launch platform for a flight demonstration, with an objective timeline of twelve to twenty-four months. The procurement process is a two-step competitive selection starting with the submission of white papers, which are evaluated based on technical merit, innovation, potential utility to agency programs, schedule adherence, and the realism of the Rough Order of Magnitude cost estimates. The MDA is open to various contract vehicles, including FAR-based procurement contracts (fixed price or cost reimbursement) and Other Transaction (OT) agreements. Proposed concepts must utilize open system architecture and maximize the use of commercial off-the-shelf or government off-the-shelf components. Due to the nature of the work, selected awardees must possess an active Secret Facility Clearance (FCL) and adhere to strict security protocols for handling Secret and Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Offerors are required to disclose any organizational conflicts of interest and comply with specific cybersecurity standards, including DFARS requirements for safeguarding covered defense information.
