Scope
This notice constitutes a combined synopsis and Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the acquisition of research and development (R&D) in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation 35.016, “Broad Agency Announcement,” as supplemented with additional information included in this notice.
No other solicitation will be issued.
Only the information provided in this notice is available.
Requests for other forms of solicitation shall be disregarded.
This BAA will remain open for five (5) years and has a ceiling of $50 Million.
The DLA Research and Development (R&D) Program Office is looking for White Papers that support the scope of the BAA as identified in Section 2: Technical Areas of Interest.
Offerors are encouraged to propose innovative solutions.
Consideration will be given to all approaches that enable improved processes aligning with both DoD and DLA Strategic Initiatives.
A White Paper is an abbreviated document (limited to 8 pages) in which a submitter shall describe a technical R&D concept.
If such a technical concept is deemed by the Government to be of interest, the Government may request full cost and technical proposals.
Full proposals submitted through this White Paper process may result in contract awards - either Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts or one-time, definitive contracts.
The Government reserves the right to select all, some, or none of the proposals submitted for award.
The primary basis for selecting proposals for acceptance will be technical, importance to agency programs, and funding availability.
Cost realism and reasonableness will be considered to the extent appropriate.
The full BAA has been uploaded to this notice as an attachment and should be referenced for submissions in relation to the BAA.

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.
