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.

Solicitation # FA2391-23-S-2403

The Pioneering Aerospace Capabilities, Engineering and Research (PACER) program, under solicitation FA2391-23-S-2403, is a comprehensive Broad Agency Announcement issued by the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Aerospace Systems Directorate. This open, two-step solicitation is designed to fund research and development efforts that mature novel aerospace concepts and technologies to appropriate technology readiness levels, specifically targeting transformative capabilities for the warfighter. The program encompasses a wide array of specialized calls, including efforts for hypersonic weapon concepts (HAMWC), automated air-to-air refueling (CRONUS), advanced propulsion and power systems (SNAPP, AEPO, MSIPPT, HITEMP, INNATE), and multidisciplinary design and structures (MASTR, VOLARE, CC DROIDS). The acquisition process typically involves an initial white paper submission followed by full proposals from selected offerors, though some calls utilize a one-step process. Awards may take the form of contracts or assistance instruments, with anticipated types including Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF), Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP), and IDIQ task orders. Due to the sensitive nature of the research, strict security protocols are enforced, requiring offerors to comply with AFRLI 61-113 for Science and Technology Protection and meet CMMC Level 2 and NIST SP 800-171 standards to access Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). Proposals are evaluated based on the uniqueness and innovation of the approach, understanding of scope, technical soundness, and transition potential, with cost realism serving as a secondary substantial factor.
