Bolstering Underutilized Industry by Leveraging Technology Transfer (BUILTT) pilot program
Solicitation # 10292026-LR-27
The Department of Energy, in partnership with the National Nuclear Security Administration, has announced the Bolstering Underutilized Industry by Leveraging Technology Transfer (BUILTT) pilot program. This initiative, conducted by the Nevada National Security Sites, Y-12 National Security Complex, and Kansas City National Security Campus, aims to assist qualified U.S. small and medium-sized businesses in manufacturing low-volume, high-impact technologies developed by DOE/NNSA Labs, Plants, and Sites. These technologies, which include specialized optical imaging, radiation and chemical sensing systems, precision electrical components, and advanced materials, often have limited commercial markets but are critical for government mission requirements. Under the program, selected businesses may receive a Cost Reduction License (CRL) for a nominal fee, granting them the rights to produce specified technologies for sale to the DOE, NNSA, and other government customers at pre-negotiated prices. Eligibility is limited to U.S.-based SMBs, with preference given to those near participating sites or those with SBA 8(a) or HUBZone designations. Interested parties are evaluated based on their technical and manufacturing capabilities, financial capacity, and ability to meet regulatory and security requirements. Responses must be submitted to the Technology Partnerships and Intellectual Property Office by April 1, 2027, and are categorized under NAICS code 541715.

Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Enterprise Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO)
Solicitation # FA865226SC003
The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Enterprise Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO), solicitation FA8652-26-S-C003, is an overarching enterprise framework designed to acquire innovative commercial products and services. Issued under the authority of 10 USC 3458 and DFARS Subpart 212.70, the CSO establishes a structure for issuing competitive solicitations known as Spirals. These Spirals target a wide range of Areas of Interest (AOI) across the Air, Space, Cyberspace/Electronic Warfare, and Cross-Domain technology domains, including hypersonics, cybersecurity, quantum technologies, and human-machine teaming. Resulting awards may take the form of fixed-price FAR Part 12 contracts or Other Transactions for Prototype (OTP). Foreign participation is strictly prohibited. The acquisition process typically follows a two-step approach for Spirals. In Step One, offerors submit a Commercial Solutions Brief (CSB) consisting of a PowerPoint briefing and a white paper. Those categorized as Selectable are invited to Step Two to submit a full Commercial Solutions Proposal (CSP), which includes a technical proposal, a Statement of Work, and a price proposal with an editable Excel pricing model. Evaluation is conducted via subject-matter expert peer review, focusing on technical merit, applicability, importance to agency programs, and funding availability. Strict security and compliance requirements are in place, including mandatory security risk reviews for all senior and key personnel to mitigate foreign influence. Offerors must also perform an Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) analysis and adhere to DoD item unique identification standards (MIL-STD-130) for delivered hardware costing $5,000 or more. Contract administration, including invoicing and payment, is managed electronically through the Wide Area WorkFlow (WAWF) system.

Systems for Phenotypic Evaluation, Clinical Trajectories, Response, and Agency (SPECTRA)
Solicitation # ARPA-H-SOL-26-163
The Systems for Phenotypic Evaluation, Clinical Trajectories, Response, and Agency (SPECTRA) program, issued by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) under solicitation ARPA-H-SOL-26-163, aims to advance the understanding and treatment of autism by identifying evolving developmental trajectories across the lifespan. The program focuses on the nonlinear interactions between genetic, biological, behavioral, and environmental factors to move toward personalized intervention. The scope of work is divided into four Technical Areas: Multi-Factor Analysis and Trajectory Identification (TA1), Population-Scale Modeling and Data Integration (TA2), Precision Intervention and Trajectory Testing (TA3), and Technologies for Communication, Quality of Life, and Embedded Assessment (TA4). Key deliverables include an operating federated network with at least ten live nodes, open-license data standards, a versioned model registry, and the development of technologies that combine clinical assessment with tools to improve daily function and quality of life. Awards will be made via Other Transaction (OT) instruments to proposers determined to be the most advantageous to the government based on scientific merit, capabilities, price/value analysis, and relevance to the ARPA-H mission. The program utilizes a milestone-based acceptance process with gates at 12, 24, and 48 months. Technical requirements emphasize privacy-preserving linkage, differential privacy, and secure execution. Proposers must be registered in SAM.gov and are required to use specific templates for Solution Summaries, with staggered submission deadlines ranging from October 2026 through January 2027. ARPA-H prioritizes entities that will conduct the funded work within the United States.

Full Description

Show more
The Space Development Agency (SDA) is responsible for defining and monitoring the Department of Defense's future threat-driven space architecture and accelerating the development and fielding of new military space capabilities necessary to ensure our technological and military advantage in space for national defense. To achieve this mission, SDA will unify and integrate next-generation space capabilities to deliver the National Defense Space Architecture (NDSA), a resilient military sensing and data transport capability via a proliferated space architecture primarily in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). SDA will not necessarily develop and field all capabilities of the NDSA but rather orchestrate those efforts across DoD and fill in gaps in capabilities while providing the integrated architecture. Initially the NDSA is comprised of the following layers, addressing the critical priorities for space identified within the DoD Space Vision: - Transport Layer, to provide assured, resilient, low-latency military data and connectivity worldwide to the full range of warfighter platforms; - Battle Management Layer, to provide architecture tasking, mission command and control, and data dissemination to support time-sensitive kill chain closure at campaign scales; and - Tracking Layer, to provide global indications, warning, tracking, and targeting of advanced missile threats, including hypersonic missile systems; - Custody Layer, to provide 24x7, all-weather custody of time-sensitive, left-of-launch surface mobile targets (e.g., to support targeting for advanced missiles); - Navigation Layer, to provide alternate position, navigation, and timing (A-PNT) for GPS-denied environments; - Deterrence Layer, to deter hostile action in deep space (beyond Geosynchronous Earth Orbit (GEO) up to lunar distances); - Support Layer, to enable ground and launch segments to support a responsive space architecture. SDA is seeking industry feedback on an Optical Intersatellite Link (OISL) Open Standard to inform SDA's need for interoperability and to inform future solicitations, including the Transport Tranche 0 solicitation anticipated for Spring 2020. Please see the Attachment for additional details and response submission instructions.
