Fast Assessment of Solutions, Therapeutics, Pharmaceuticals, and SupplieS (FASTPASS) Innovative Solutions Opening
Solicitation # ARPA-H-SOL-26-160
The Fast Assessment of Solutions, Therapeutics, Pharmaceuticals, and Supplies (FASTPASS) program, under solicitation ARPA-H-SOL-26-160, is an initiative by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) to develop a near real-time, non-destructive, AI-enabled screening system. The goal is to identify contamination, adulteration, and quality defects in pharmaceutical products through their packaging at ports of entry and other supply-chain nodes using multi-modal sensing and data fusion. This 54-month program is structured into three 18-month phases, culminating in a fieldable platform with validated training materials and integrated documentation capabilities. This procurement is conducted as a multiple-award Other Transaction (OT) Agreement rather than a standard federal contract, meaning it is governed by specific OT articles instead of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. Awards are based on the most advantageous proposals, with primary evaluation factors including innovation, soundness, execution planning, risk management, and team expertise. Payments are fixed and triggered by the successful completion of milestones, managed through the Payment Management System. Proposers must be registered in SAM.gov and provide detailed technical and cost proposals, including a milestone payment schedule and research security disclosures. Amendment 01 specifically updated the cost proposal narrative model and workbook to correct typographical errors and rename appendices.

Simulation-augmented, Real-time Platform Adaptive Seamless Trials (SURPASS)
Solicitation # ARPA-H-SOL-26-164
The Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) is soliciting proposals for the Simulation-augmented, Real-time Platform Adaptive Seamless Trials (SURPASS) program under solicitation ARPA-H-SOL-26-164. This five-year initiative aims to create a reusable blueprint for future adaptive seamless platform trials through the integration of three technical areas: a Phaseless Design Engine, Continuous Inference, and Agentic Operations. The program is divided into two stages, with Stage I focusing on capability buildout, FDA engagement, and the onboarding of at least three intervention arms over 24 months, followed by a 36-month Stage II dedicated to validation and deployment. A critical go/no-go milestone is obtaining FDA authorization for the platform Master Protocol IND and at least one investigational arm by the end of Stage I. The government intends to make multiple awards via Other Transaction Agreements to proposers offering the most advantageous solutions based on innovation, feasibility, and technical merit at reasonable prices. Eligible entities must possess a Unique Entity Identifier and active SAM registration. Proposals are submitted in a phased approach, beginning with a Solution Summary and potentially progressing to a Solution Pitch package. Performance will be measured by the successful integration of the three technical areas and the achievement of specific program metrics. All work must adhere to ICH E6(R3) Good Clinical Practice and strict regulatory standards to ensure inspection readiness and participant safety.
