ARMY APPLICATIONS LABORATORY BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT FOR DISRUPTIVE TECHNOLOGIES
Solicitation # W911NF-24-S-0008
The United States Army Futures Command, through the Army Applications Lab, has issued Broad Agency Announcement W911NF-24-S-0008 to solicit disruptive technology applications. This initiative aims to modernize the Army by leveraging civilian research, development, and innovation ecosystems to create a first-mover advantage. The program focuses on seven key priorities: Long-Range Precision Fires, Next Generation Combat Vehicles, Future Vertical Lift Platforms, the Army Network, Air and Missile Defense Capabilities, Soldier Lethality, and Contested Logistics. The effort is structured around three main lines of action: the discovery of novel capability concepts, the acceleration of technology demonstrators that provide a significant improvement over current capabilities, and the translation of these innovations into scalable Army advantages. The Army is specifically seeking advancements in Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies, including artificial intelligence, robotics, autonomy, quantum information systems, synthetic biology, and advanced power and energy systems. There is a strong emphasis on translational research and the development of dual-use solutions that serve both military needs and commercial markets. This solicitation, managed by the Army Contracting Command in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, remains active from April 5, 2024, through April 5, 2029, with performance centered in Austin, Texas.

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Multi X Office is soliciting proposals for the Atomically Precise Molecules (APM) program under solicitation DARPA-PS-26-141. The program aims to develop innovative synthesis techniques for programmable precision polymers (PPPs) and nonlinear optical (NLO) materials to overcome performance gaps in optical communications and LiDAR. The primary objective is the creation of scalable, fit-for-purpose materials, culminating in a prototype demonstration of a revolutionary NLO material integrated into a government-provided electro-optic modulator. Research focusing solely on inorganic materials or incremental improvements to the state-of-the-art is specifically excluded. This 36-month effort is structured in two technical phases, with Phase I focusing on developing PPP synthesis capabilities over the first 12 months. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction (OT) for Prototype Agreements under 10 U.S.C. 4022. Key requirements include CMMC Level 2 self-assessment compliance and adherence to a program-specific Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) guide. Non-US organizations, FFRDCs, UARCs, and government entities are ineligible to serve as prime performers, though FFRDCs and UARCs may participate as subawardees provided they meet specific certification and conflict of interest mitigation requirements. Proposals must be submitted via the Broad Agency Announcement Tool (BAAT) by December 18, 2026. Submissions must include a technical and management volume, a price proposal with a detailed spreadsheet, a Task Description Document, and a schedule of milestones and payments. Evaluation will be based on the technical approach, relevance to the DARPA mission, budget realism, and the capability to transition the technology to military or commercial sectors.
