What this contract is for

Agency: DEPT OF DEFENSE / DEPT OF THE AIR FORCE
Location: Wright Patterson AFB, OH
Set-aside: No Set aside used
Scope: Federal

The Air Force Research Laboratory, Tech Transition Office AFRL/RR, in coordination with the Information and Spectrum Warfare Directorate (AFRL/RI), is seeking information from industry to improve USAF understanding of domestic market capabilities and identify qualified vendors to collaborate with.

Specifically, AFRL is investigating technologies small enough to be installed on Group 2-3 unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) across two core pathways: 1.

Integrated GOTS/NDI Systems: Existing Government-Off-The-Shelf (GOTS) or Non- Developmental Item (NDI) radar electronic attack (EA) systems that have been proven or demonstrated for military use.

COTS Modular Enablers & Building Blocks: Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) hardware, open software-defined architectures, and high-performance RF components.

AFRL is highly interested in innovative commercial building blocks—including Radio Frequency System on Chip (RFSoC) technology, high-speed analog-to-digital converters, and edge compute chips—that can support receive, process, and transmit capabilities in a variety of active and passive military scenarios.

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.
Check the set-aside listed above and confirm your business actually qualifies for it before you spend time on a proposal. See our guide to set-asides if the category is unfamiliar.
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.
