The DOE Quantum Genesis Q Competition

Solicitation # DE-FOA-0003657

The Department of Energy Office of Science has launched the Quantum Genesis Q Competition under solicitation DE-FOA-0003657 to accelerate the development and deployment of the first fault-tolerant, scientifically relevant quantum computing (SRQC) capability. This initiative, part of the broader Genesis Mission, seeks domestic commercial entities capable of delivering a first-generation SRQC by 2028, with some flexibility extending to 2030. The program is designed to scale quantum hardware, software, and enabling technologies to support national scientific advancement and establish a foundation for next-generation SRQCs at National Laboratories through the 2030s. The competition is administered via Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) rather than standard FAR-based contracts, utilizing a milestone-based funding structure with a total estimated value of 215 million dollars over the first 30 months. Funding is distributed through initial plan approvals at 250,000 dollars, prototype milestones at 1.25 million dollars, and a 100 million dollar general incentive pool for achieving first-generation goals. Additional bonus pools of 50 million dollars each are available for achieving 150 and 200 total logical qubits, respectively. All work and capabilities must be built and performed within the United States. Applications are evaluated on a merit-based system prioritizing scientific and technical feasibility, operational feasibility, impact on the DOE mission, and contributions to the U.S. quantum ecosystem. Due diligence reviews for research, technology, and economic security are mandatory for all applicants. Eligible domestic commercial entities must be registered in SAM.gov and submit their applications via Grants.gov by October 19, 2026. Awardees are subject to strict intellectual property terms, research security training requirements, and must maintain comprehensive conflict-of-interest policies.
