Scope: Federal

The Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is issuing a Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) pursuant to DFARS Subpart 212.70.

Under this CSO, all products, technologies, and services shall be treated as commercial items; products, technologies, and services do not have to be “commercially available” to be submitted in response to this solicitation.

If the solution meets the requirements of the regulation, the solution is treated as commercial whereby the Contracting Officer will utilize commercial procedures to develop and execute the resultant award.

The DoW High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP) is seeking innovative solutions to establish a new high-performance computing (HPC) system acquisition and support services model that leverages industry best practices to transform how the HPCMP procures, operates, and maintains its newest HPC systems for 2027.

The HPC systems being considered are a combination of compute-intensive architectures and artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) platforms operating in either unclassified or classified (secret and above-secret) environments.

The systems would be geographically distributed at up to three of the five HPCMP DoW Supercomputing Resource Centers (DSRCs).

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.
