Defense Innovation Unit Commercial Solutions Opening

Solicitation # HQ0845-20-S-C001

The Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) is utilizing a streamlined Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) to award funding agreements to traditional and nontraditional defense contractors for prototype projects. These projects aim to enhance military effectiveness and national security through the adoption of innovative commercial technologies, processes, or business practices. Awards are executed as Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) under the authority of 10 U.S.C. 2371b, allowing for an iterative prototyping process that includes concept demonstrations, pilots, and agile development. The procurement is administered by the DIU in coordination with the Washington Headquarters Service and the Army Contracting Command. The competitive process consists of three distinct phases: the submission of a Solution Brief in response to specific Areas of Interest (AOI), an invitation to a pitch session to demonstrate technical and business viability, and the submission of a full written proposal. Evaluation is based on the merit of the proposed concept, specifically focusing on relevance to the AOI, innovation, uniqueness, and technical feasibility. Eligible respondents must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM), possess a DUNS number, and be determined responsible by the Agreements Officer. While the government requires a total price proposal for the prototype project, the Agreements Officer will negotiate final terms, conditions, and payments directly with the selected company, including the potential consideration of company-proposed service or user license agreements.
