REQUEST FOR INFORMATION - OPERATIONAL TEST AND TRAINING READINESS DIVISION - DevSecOps

Solicitation # OTTI_2026_RFI_SpecDevOps

Space Systems Command is conducting market research through a Request for Information to evaluate the feasibility of a no-cost Prototype Other Transaction Agreement under 10 U.S.C. section 4022. The primary objective is to design, engineer, and validate a secure, multi-node, multi-vendor continuous software development and delivery architecture. This prototype aims to connect commercially owned and operated secure facility nodes directly to secure Government cloud environments, enabling scalable DevSecOps pipelines and improving software accreditation and deployment reliability by overcoming high-to-low security boundary bottlenecks. The project utilizes a two-phase approach, starting with a public phase to identify commercial capabilities followed by a controlled phase for vetted vendors under non-disclosure agreements. Participating vendors must be entirely U.S.-owned and operated, maintain a Facility Security Clearance, and provide 100% of the cost-share for physical facilities and cleared personnel. Technical requirements include the use of DevOps toolchains, containerization, and Kubernetes. Successful demonstration of a secure connection and software transmission may lead to potential sole-source follow-on production contracts. Interested parties must submit a white paper of no more than five pages by September 11, 2026, including specific business information and security posture details submitted via secure channels.

The DARPA Research Solutions Opening (DARPA-PA-26-08) is a long-term open call issued on June 2, 2026, designed to engage academic researchers and Intergovernmental Personnel Act candidates from accredited U.S. colleges and universities. The program seeks to fund independent research ideas and revolutionary solutions that address complex technical challenges and hard problems within DARPA's investment portfolio. This initiative is structured as an Other Transaction (OT) for Research under 10 U.S.C. 4021, moving away from standard FAR-based contracts to a set of structured articles governing scope, term, and management. The solicitation is open for abstract submissions on a rolling basis until June 1, 2027. The award process follows a two-phase scientific review. In the first phase, eligible applicants must submit either a written abstract, limited to four pages, or an oral abstract consisting of a coversheet, certification statements, and a summary slide via the Broad Agency Announcement Tool. Only those who receive a formal government invitation may proceed to the second phase of submitting a full proposal. Evaluation is based on overall scientific and technical merit, technology transition strategy, and the nomination of at least one candidate for the DARPA IPA Mobility Program. While specific contract values are not listed in the solicitation, a sample streamlined agreement suggests a fixed-milestone approach for research valued at 2 million dollars or less, with payments processed through the Wide Area Work Flow system.
