Mobile Integrated Launch Capability

Solicitation # 26-MDA-12366

The Missile Defense Agency (MDA) is seeking industry partners to develop a Mobile Integrated Launch Capability (MILC) to replace or augment current air-drop C-17 target launch systems through a two-phase contract effort. Phase I focuses on detailed design, engagement analysis, and cost estimation for candidate concepts, while Phase II involves prototyping, ground testing, and live launch of a selected target system from a global location. Proposals must demonstrate an innovative, novel approach with high execution potential, strong alignment with MDA’s mission objectives, and a fast-paced schedule that enables frequent testing, all while maintaining low lifecycle costs. Offerors are required to submit a white paper not exceeding ten pages in a specific format with sections including an executive summary, program description, milestone chart, prior work, and a Rough Order of Magnitude. White papers may be submitted at Unclassified, Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), or Secret levels, with strict handling protocols for CUI and Secret materials, including banner and portion markings and restricted distribution statements like FEDONLY or FEDCON. Secure submissions must use approved channels including SIPRnet, courier, or hard copy only; electronic files must be unzipped, unpassworded, and under 10MB for unclassified submissions. Contract performance will require an active Secret Facility Clearance Level and compliance with Secret safeguarding standards, as verified by MDA prior to award. Offerors must also disclose any Organizational Conflicts of Interest using the MDA Form DA-78-F2, and adhere to FAR and DFARS provisions regarding procurement integrity, cybersecurity (NIST SP 800-171, CMMC), export controls (ITAR/EAR), and government rights in technical data. The contract may be awarded as a fixed-price, cost-reimbursement, or Other Transaction Agreement, with selection based on a trade-off evaluation emphasizing technical merit and strategic value over lowest cost. Performance periods are set at up to six months for Phase I and twenty-four months for Phase II, though objectives are 3 and 12 months respectively. All work will be performed with the primary point of performance at Redstone Arsenal, Alabama, though launch operations are designed for global deployment. No formal packaging, preservation, or physical item marking standards are specified, though use of COTS/GOTS components and open architecture is required. The solicitation remains open with no firm deadline, accepting submissions continuously via email until further notice, with offerors responsible for maintaining active SAM registration, providing updated UEI

The Department of Defense, through the Transformation and Training Command (T2COM) and the Army Applications Laboratory (AAL), has issued a long-term, open call solicitation titled "DevX Autonomy" to seek advanced technology solutions related to autonomy and unmanned systems. This effort aims to support research, development, testing, procurement, and sustainment of both hardware and software solutions that enhance autonomous unmanned system capabilities. The solicitation, governed by DFARS regulations, specifically targets proposals that address capability gaps, meet requirements, or push the state of the art in autonomy technology. Submitted solutions will be evaluated and potentially integrated via rapid acquisition pathways to expedite deployment. The solicitation number for this combined type contract is W911NF26S0040, posted on December 23, 2025, with a response deadline of July 31, 2026. It falls under NAICS code 541715 and is managed by the Department of Defense office located in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The primary place of performance is Austin, Texas. Interested parties can direct inquiries and submissions to the DevX Autonomy email contact provided by the Army Applications Laboratory.

HADES (Hybrid Architecture and Development for Experimental Systems) Request for Proposal

Solicitation # FA8809-26-R-B002

The Hybrid Architecture and Development for Experimental Systems (HADES) contract, identified by solicitation FA8809-26-R-B002, is an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) vehicle issued by the Space Systems Command’s Innovation and Prototyping Delta at Kirtland Air Force Base, New Mexico. The base ordering period spans three years from February 2027 through February 2030, with four one-year option periods available, potentially extending performance through February 2034. The contract supports satellite ground system engineering, development, integration, and sustainment services, primarily at the Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation Support Complex (RSC) at Kirtland AFB, utilizing a mix of Cost-Reimbursable with Cost-Plus-Award-Fee, Firm-Fixed-Price, and Cost-type contract line items. All personnel must hold at least a Secret clearance, with many roles requiring Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) eligibility due to the classified nature of the RSC environment and mission-critical operations. The contract is structured around task orders issued during the ordering period, with pricing determined at the task order level and structured to comply with fiscal law requirements, including annual pricing as outlined in Section L Appendix A and Section M Table 27. The technical evaluation criteria are prioritized in a strict hierarchy: Technical > Past Performance > Cost/Price, with no numerical weights applied. The Technical factor, which is the most critical, has been refined into five subfactors: Program Management Administrative Requirements (Pass/Fail), Program Management Staffing/Labor Profile (Adjectival), Program Management Emerging Requirements Response (Adjectival and the primary discriminator), Systems Engineering Approach and Methodology (Adjectival), and Systems Engineering Configuration Management (Pass/Fail). The Emerging Requirements Response subfactor serves as the key differentiator among proposals. Past Performance will be assessed holistically for confidence in successful execution, while Cost/Price is evaluated for reasonableness and consistency but considered least important in the trade-off. Offerors must submit proposals in five volumes with strict page limits, excluding certain front matter from counts. The evaluation is a best-value trade-off, not a lowest-price, technically acceptable approach. Section L imposes significant requirements including a mandatory OCI Mitigation Plan, compliance with DoD cybersecurity standards via NIST SP 800-171, implementation of a Small Business Subcontracting Plan, and workforce constraints including a maximum of
