Disruptioneering Program Announcement
Solicitation # DARPA-PA-25-07
The DARPA Defense Sciences Office (DSO) Disruptioneering Program, under solicitation DARPA-PA-25-07, seeks to identify and leverage nascent scientific advances for national security through high-risk, high-payoff research. The program utilizes Disruption Opportunities (DOs) to rapidly investigate new concepts, enabling the initiation of unclassified efforts in less than 120 calendar days from inception. Awards are issued as Other Transaction (OT) agreements for prototype projects under 10 U.S.C. § 4022, focusing on proofs of concept, pilots, and the demonstration of technical or operational utility. Proposals are not submitted to the general program announcement but must be responded to via individual DOs. Selection is based on a weighted evaluation of overall scientific and technical merit, potential contribution to the DARPA mission, and price reasonableness, which serves as a mandatory pass/fail gate. Proposals are evaluated on their own individual merit rather than against each other. Awardees must comply with strict cybersecurity standards, including NIST SP 800-171 for safeguarding Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and reporting cyber incidents. Administrative requirements include registration in the Wide Area Workflow (WAWF) for electronic invoicing and the provision of SAM Unique Entity Identifiers.
