Solicitation # FA238424S2233
The Continuing Human Enabling, Enhancing, Restoring and Sustaining (CHEERS) program is a Multiple Authority Announcement (MAA) managed by the Air Force Research Laboratory Human Effectiveness Directorate and the United States Air Force School of Medicine. The program provides a comprehensive strategy for science and technology research, progressing from basic research to technology maturation to optimize and protect Airman capabilities across Air, Space, and Cyberspace. The scope is divided into three primary areas: Airman Biosciences, which focuses on biotechnology and aerospace medicine; Bioeffects, which addresses battlefield environmental stressors; and Warfighter Interactions and Readiness, which enhances mission execution. The MAA utilizes a flexible procurement framework, employing various authorities including Broad Agency Announcements, Other Transaction agreements for research and prototypes, and grants. Awards are generally anticipated to be cost-plus-fixed-fee. The selection process typically involves a two-step approach requiring an initial five-page white paper and rough order of magnitude cost, followed by a full technical and cost proposal for selected candidates. Evaluation is prioritized by technical merit, specifically focusing on innovation, understanding of scope, technical soundness, and transition potential, with cost realism serving as a secondary factor. Recent updates include several moratoriums to preserve competition, specifically closing technical areas related to BRDEE, Information Mastery in Cognitive Warfare, and Holistic Models for Decision-Making for six-month periods following specific proposal closing dates. All contractor personnel must undergo a minimum Tier 1 background check for positions of trust, and offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management.
