Sources Sought: Call For Technology Independent Verification &Validation (IV&V) 27-1: Spectrum Proof
Solicitation # IVV271
The US Army V Corps, in partnership with the Defense Innovation Unit, is conducting an open sources sought for the Spectrum Proof Independent Verification and Validation (IV&V) event to identify and evaluate emerging Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) technologies aligned with the Eastern Flank Deterrence Initiative. The initiative seeks capabilities that enable the U.S. Army and NATO forces to achieve electromagnetic spectrum superiority in dense, contested, and denied environments by providing seamless sensing, identification, targeting, and non-lethal disruption of adversary systems across all echelons. Submissions must demonstrate alignment with five key verticals: Electromagnetic Support and Surveillance, Common Services, Electromagnetic Attack, Sensor-to-Shooter Integration, and Resilience in Degraded Environments. Technologies must be optimized for Size, Weight, Power, and Cost (SWaP-C), support open architectures like MOSA and SOSA, incorporate AI/ML for real-time signal classification and automation, and operate effectively in DDIL (Distributed, Disaggregated, Integrated, Limited) conditions without relying on robust network connectivity. Respondents are required to submit a ten-page whitepaper detailing the technology’s development, operational history, current Technology Readiness Level (TRL), and specific alignment with one or more verticals, along with a single-page technology quad chart that summarizes capability, prior deployments, TRL, and a full technical point of contact. Submissions must be unclassified and properly marked for proprietary or sensitive information. The government will evaluate submissions through a peer review panel of military, industry, and academic experts based on technical merit, mission alignment, and integration potential. Participation in the Spectrum Proof event, scheduled for November 2–6, 2026, at Fort Knox, Kentucky, is not guaranteed, and no costs incurred in response to this sources sought will be reimbursed. There is no obligation to award any contract from this effort, but selected technologies may be invited to participate in a follow-on experimentation event in the EUCOM theater in third quarter fiscal year 2027 under authorities including 10 U.S.C. 4021, 4022, and 3458. Offerors must affirm they are acting solely as technology demonstrators and will not evaluate other submissions to prevent conflicts of interest. Government support contractors with access to proprietary data are bound by strict non-disclosure obligations, and all evaluation results will remain within government control with Letters of Observation issued to participants.
