What this contract is for

Request for White Papers for the Organic Counter Small Unmanned Aircraft System (O-CsUAS) Dismounted Sensor System. The intent of this invitation letter is to request respondents to provide solution papers on sensor systems that can provide self-defense for dismounted Marines.

The requests for these documents can be requested at any time prior to solution paper submission, but as part of the request, the respondent must provide its CAGE Code to be granted access. Once the Government verifies that the respondent holds an active registration in SAM.gov with no active exclusions, the documents will be provided to the requester no later than close of business the following day of the request provided the requester is a U.S. citizen. The requests of all foreign parties will be required to go through the foreign disclosure process for release authorization.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
