Air Force - Small UAS & Asymmetric Capabilities - Commercial Solutions Opening

Solicitation # FA8629-26-S-C001

The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, specifically the Special Operations and ISR Directorate, has established a Commercial Solutions Opening to solicit innovative solutions for future requirements. This initiative is managed by the Special Operations and Personnel Recovery Division and the Capabilities Development Office at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Rather than a single request for proposals, the government will announce specific needs through individual Problem Statement Calls, each containing its own submission instructions and requirements. Awards resulting from this process may be granted under Federal Acquisition Regulation Part 12 or through Other Transaction authority. The CSO is open for a twelve month period ending September 3, 2027, with the possibility of annual renewal. Currently, the government is not accepting unsolicited proposals and no funding has been obligated under this specific notice.
