United States Space Force (USSF) Battle Management, Command, Control, Communication and Space Intelligence (BMC3I) Satellite Communication Augmentation Resource (SCAR) Program Office (PMO) Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) Two Phase Closed Variant

Solicitation # HQ0860-26-S-C008

The United States Space Force (USSF) Satellite Communication Augmentation Resource (SCAR) Program Office, through the Missile Defense Agency, has issued a two-phase closed variant Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) solicitation (HQ0860-26-S-C008) to revitalize the USSF Satellite Control system. Utilizing the Nimble Options for Buying Layered Effects (NOBLE) process, the program seeks innovative prototype solutions to provide robust Telemetry, Tracking, and Commanding (TT&C) capabilities across all orbital regimes. The scope is categorized into three Areas of Interest: AOI 01 focuses on the rapid delivery and operation of Government-owned and Contractor-operated commercial TT&C capabilities, including Ground Entry Point (GEP) and Network Operations Center (NOC) integration; AOI 02 involves the exclusive use of leased commercial antenna capacity; and AOI 03 addresses high-reliability service through commercial sites. Resulting awards may be executed as either Other Transaction Agreements (OTAs) or FAR-based firm-fixed price contracts. The solicitation follows a two-phase evaluation process where Phase 1 requires a five-page White Paper focused on technical feasibility, innovation, and Technology Readiness Level (TRL) substantiation. Phase 2 is reserved for selected offerors and requires a full proposal including a Statement of Work (SOW) that aligns with the program's Statement of Objectives (SOO). Evaluation is primarily based on technical merit and importance to SCAR program requirements, which are considered substantially more important than price. Security is a critical component; offerors must possess a valid U.S. security clearance of Secret or higher and an active Facility Security Clearance (FCL). Access to the Offeror’s Library, which contains Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and Export Controlled (EXPT) documents, requires a CMMC Level II Self-Assessment and, for EXPT data, an active DD Form 2345. The deadline for Phase 1 White Paper submissions is 14:00 MDT on October 15, 2026.

The Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Grounds (ACC-APG) Orlando Division, on behalf of the Capability Program Executive Simulation, Training, Test & Threat, is issuing a Call for Solutions (CFS) under Army Open Solicitation W9128Z-25-S-A002. The objective is to modernize the Synthetic Training Environment (STE) Virtual Software (VSW) to deliver a certifiable Table II virtual collective gate for mounted maneuver and aviation units. Key operational priorities include establishing a doctrinal gate to live fire, creating a true combined arms environment, ensuring full mission command concurrency, and implementing an open system architecture with published SDKs and APIs. The project is structured into five capability lots: Common Core Software (Lot 1), Simulation Application Software (Lot 2), HIL Integration (Lot 3), AAR/Analytics (Lot 4), and Enterprise Integration Support (Lot 5). The total approximate project ceiling across all lots is 250 million dollars. The acquisition process involves a multi-phase evaluation focusing on schedule aggressiveness, technical merit, and viability, with a strong emphasis on the lowest overall project risk. A critical organizational conflict of interest rule prohibits any entity performing on Lot 5 from participating in Lots 1, 2, or 4. The Lot 5 awardee is specifically responsible for providing the physical laboratory facility and network infrastructure in Orlando, Florida, as the government will only provide the crew station cockpits and computing equipment as government furnished equipment. Solutions were due by September 29, 2026, with anticipated awards for Lots 1, 3, and 5 scheduled for November 13, 2026. Technical requirements emphasize a DevSecOps CI/CD pipeline, Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) management, and compatibility with an unclassified Controlled Unclassified Information environment.
