Synthetic Training Environment (STE) Virtual Software (VSW)
Solicitation # STE-VSW-26-0006
The Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Grounds Orlando Division, on behalf of the Capability Program Executive Simulation, Training, Test and Threat, is issuing a Call for Solutions for the Synthetic Training Environment Virtual Software project under Army Open Solicitation W9128Z-25-S-1002. The objective is to acquire a modernized virtual software ecosystem with a total combined value of approximately 250 million dollars. The government seeks a technically sound and cost-effective solution to achieve four primary operational outcomes: a doctrinal gate to live fire, a true combined arms environment, full mission command concurrency, and an open system architecture featuring published SDKs and APIs for rapid integration. The scope of work is divided into five capability lots: Lot 1 for the foundational software platform, Lot 2 for specialized applications, Lot 3 for hardware-in-the-loop integration and test, and Lot 5 for independent enterprise integration support. A strict organizational conflict of interest firewall prohibits the Lot 5 vendor from proposing on or providing software for Lots 1, 2, or 4. Technical requirements include native ingestion of One World Terrain data, alignment with TC 3-20.0 Integrated Weapons Training Strategy, and a secure-by-design foundation leveraging FedRAMP authorizations to accelerate the RMF Open Network Authority to Operate timeline. The acquisition follows a phased selection process where the technical schedule, technical approach, and recent relevant experience are the primary evaluation factors. Initial submissions must include an anonymous technical concept to ensure impartial assessment. Key milestones include a final solution deadline of September 28, 2026, followed by down-select notifications on October 2, demonstration pitches from October 20 to 22, and anticipated awards for the lots by November 13, 2026. Offerors must be registered in SAM and WAWF, and the process includes specific representations regarding non-traditional defense contractor status and Section 889 telecommunications compliance.

Resilient
Solicitation # DARPA-PA-25-07-04
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Defense Sciences Office is soliciting innovative basic or applied research through the Resilient Disruption Opportunity (DARPA-PA-25-07-04). The program aims to develop a fundamentally new methodology for accelerated materials testing and prediction for concrete, utilizing physics-informed scalability models and transportable material accelerators to predict macro-scale structural lifetimes in weeks rather than decades. This effort moves beyond traditional ASTM tests by requiring the use of specific rate-limiting kinetic equations, such as modified Arrhenius or Nernst-Planck. The project is structured into two sequential phases over a total period of performance not exceeding 24 months. Phase 1 is a 12-month base effort focused on the design and fabrication of a benchtop Material Accelerator and initial scalability model development. Phase 2 is a 12-month option period dedicated to refining the accelerator for higher rates and validating the scalability model. The total award value is limited to 2,000,000 dollars, with a maximum of 1,000,000 dollars allocated to each phase. Awards will be issued as Other Transaction for Prototype Agreements, utilizing the Wide Area Workflow system for invoicing and payments. Eligible proposers must meet strict cybersecurity requirements, including CMMC Level 1 compliance and current status in the Supplier Performance Risk System. Proposals must be submitted via the DARPA BAA Portal by October 19, 2026, and must include a technical concept, a data and sourcing narrative, and a signed data sharing agreement. Additionally, any proposal involving University Affiliated Research Centers must include an organizational conflict of interest mitigation plan. Key deliverables include a v1.0 Scalability Model by month 12 and a v2.0 model and transportable prototype by month 24.

ACC-DTA Ground Maneuver Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO)
Solicitation # W912CH-26-S-0001
The ACC-DTA Ground Maneuver Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) is a streamlined acquisition initiative authorized under DFARS Subpart 212-70, designed to rapidly procure innovative commercial technologies, products, and services to enhance Army modernization and operational readiness. The program focuses on the development, integration, and sustainment of ground vehicle systems capabilities through a multi-phased competitive process involving solution briefs, presentations, and commercial solution proposals. Awards may be structured as fixed-price contracts, including fixed-price incentive fee contracts, and can be executed via FAR Part 12 commercial procedures, non-FAR transaction agreements under 10 U.S.C 4022, or Cooperative Agreements under 31 U.S.C. 6305. The CSO is active through 2028 and allows the government to add or modify Areas of Interest (AoIs) to meet evolving needs. Key Areas of Interest include the TIGER Readiness program for the Abrams Main Battle Tank's AGT 1500 engine, focusing on supply chain resilience and advanced manufacturing, as well as the Light Tactical Trailer Heavy Chassis (LTT-HC), M2A2 Aiming Circles, and additive manufacturing for component production. Evaluation is based on technical approach, realistic performance schedules, and price affordability, with proposals rated as either acceptable or unacceptable. To be eligible for award, companies must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) with a Unique Entity ID and be determined responsible by the Contracting Officer. Specific requirements for certain AoIs include strict adherence to the Buy American Act, Specialty Metals clauses, and NIST SP 800-171 compliance for handling controlled unclassified information.

Perrseus
Solicitation # DARPA-PS-26-127
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Multi X Office is soliciting proposals under solicitation DARPA-PS-26-127 for the Perrseus program. The objective is to develop architectures and processes for microscale ultra-high-vacuum (uUHV) packages with pressures less than 10^-10 mbar. These systems must integrate cold-atom neutral/ion quantum sensors, MEMS, and photonic sensors, focusing on reducing size, weight, and power (SWaP) while enabling high-volume manufacturing.
