Area of Interest: OSW Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation (CAPE) Modeling and Simulation
Solicitation # HQ003427AOI5
The Washington Headquarters Services is soliciting innovative commercial solutions under solicitation HQ003427AOI05 to establish a next-generation modeling and simulation architecture for the Office of the Secretary of War Cost Assessment and Program Evaluation. The objective is to replace legacy infrastructure with a unified computational backbone that compresses the cycle time between budget queries and warfighting insights. This architecture must integrate three functional layers: a high-performance simulation execution layer for large-scale model runs, a machine-learned surrogate emulation layer for hosting government-developed models, and an intuitive self-service quantitative analysis layer for visualization and sensitivity analysis. The technical requirements specify a high-performance compute environment capable of executing between 1,200 simulations in 10 hours for light cases and up to 150,000 simulations within two weeks for heavy cases. The system must operate at Impact Level 6, support network throughput between 100 Mbps and 1 Gbps, and be accessible from the Pentagon and Mark Center. It must accommodate a diverse software ecosystem including Python, R, Java, PyTorch, and large language models. While the government will retain exclusive operational tenant administration and control over data and security permissions, the commercial provider will be responsible for turnkey managed IT operations, including hardware availability, patching, and cybersecurity hardening. Interested respondents must submit white papers by November 12, 2026, in accordance with Commercial Solutions Opening procedures.

Tactical Resupply Unmanned Aircraft System Increment II Cargo UAS Industry Demonstration
Solicitation # NAWCAD-SN-26-TRUASII
The Direct Reporting Portfolio Manager for Robotic and Autonomous Systems 4.0, Air Warfare Program Management Office, is seeking industry participants for the Tactical Resupply Unmanned Aircraft System (TRUAS) Increment II Cargo UAS industry demonstration. Scheduled for January 25 through February 5, 2027, in Huntsville, Alabama, this event aims to identify unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and enabling technologies to support the Marine Corps Unmanned Logistics System – Air (ULS-A) mission for last-mile tactical distribution in expeditionary environments. The government is inviting applications from all qualified participants, including small businesses and non-traditional defense contractors, provided they are U.S. citizens or companies with U.S.-based offices. Participants must demonstrate a UAS with a maximum gross take-off weight of up to 350 lbs that can perform specific autonomous flight missions. These include a 40 nautical mile round trip with a 100 lb payload and a 10 nautical mile round trip with at least a 150 lb payload, both without refueling. Systems must maintain an airspeed of at least 50 knots, operate below 1,000 feet AGL, and launch and recover without mechanical assistance. Technical requirements include FIPS 140-3 Level 2 radio encryption, compliance with MIL-STD461G and MIL-STD464C, and the ability to operate in degraded environments using alternative positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) solutions. Selection for the demonstration is based on a white paper and questionnaire evaluated against a specific rubric focusing on country of origin, weight, range, payload capacity, and unit cost. Successful performance during the demonstration may lead to the award of an Other Transaction (OT) prototype agreement under 10 U.S.C. section 4022, which could potentially result in a follow-on production contract without further competition. To be eligible for such an award, selectees must join the Naval Aviation Systems Consortium (NASC). Applications are due by November 30, 2026.

Building America Subject Matter Expert Technical Support
Solicitation # RFP-2026-10245()
The National Laboratory of the Rockies (NLR) is soliciting proposals under RFP-2026-10245 to engage technical subject matter experts (SMEs) in support of the Department of Energy's Building America program. The scope of work focuses on two primary areas: new construction support, which emphasizes factory optimization, product design, materials innovation, and digital modeling to lower costs and increase speed of construction; and envelope retrofits, which aims to reduce utility bills and first costs by addressing moisture, humidity, and infiltration. SMEs will be responsible for research, field validation, data collection, industry analysis, and knowledge transfer to provide actionable guidance to industry stakeholders. The procurement seeks up to ten firm fixed price subcontracts, each featuring a 12-month basic period with four 12-month options, for a total potential duration of 60 months. Each agreement has an anticipated annual ceiling of 100,000 dollars and a five-year ceiling of 500,000 dollars. Awards are based on best value, with a heavy emphasis on qualitative merit—specifically technical expertise, research capabilities, collaboration, and knowledge transfer—rather than price alone. Proposals must be submitted electronically in PDF format, including a technical proposal limited to 8 pages, a labor rate break-down, and required representations and certifications.

Request for Information (RFI) for a Cislunar Space System (CSS)
Solicitation # 10302026-01
The Department of the Air Force is conducting market research via a Request for Information to inform the acquisition strategy for a Cislunar Space System (CSS). The objective is the rapid development and fielding of up to five space vehicles by late CY29 to serve as seed vehicles for a potential future proliferated cislunar constellation. The system requires a comprehensive solution including spacecraft buses, a ground segment for mission management and telemetry, launch integration for government-provided National Security Space Launch boosters, and ongoing operations and maintenance. Technical requirements specify a payload capacity of up to 2,000 kg, power thresholds between 1 kW and 3 kW, three-axis stabilization with 6-DOF thruster control, and the implementation of NSA Type-I encryption. The government is seeking low-risk solutions with minimal non-recurring engineering, prioritizing buses that have flown within the last three years or will complete system-level integration within 24 months. Design life thresholds are set at three to five years with 0.6 reliability, and end-of-life disposal must comply with Orbital Debris Mitigation Standard Practices. Based on the RFI responses, the government may award up to five Firm Fixed Price preliminary design study contracts. Evaluation of respondents will focus on technical, schedule, and production risks, as well as overall execution ability and prior domain expertise in cislunar-qualified vehicles. Responses must be submitted electronically by November 13, 2026, and include a completed Summary Response Template and a technical narrative limited to fifteen pages.
