About this award
US Cyber Command awarded an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA), which sits outside the FAR, to Cryptic Vector, LLC, a small business limited liability company, with a ceiling value of $47.9 million on July 29, 2026. The OTA develops a prototype for offensive cyber operations capabilities that provide direct access to and effects on targets, within the C5ISR portfolio. The source traces the requirement to the Air Force Research Laboratory Information Directorate's pre-solicitation under the "Applications for Cyber Warfare: Genesis" Advanced Research Announcement (ARA FA8750-25-S-7006), posted September 30, 2025. That ARA seeks cyber operations prototypes for transition into operational Department of Defense platforms across technology areas including command and control, effects-based capabilities, predictive analysis, cross-domain capabilities, stealth delivery and persistence, and planning utilities. The ARA uses a two-step process in which only white papers are accepted initially, with proposals by invitation only, and it has no set-aside designation. It carries approximately $999 million in total estimated funding, with individual awards typically between $10 million and $50 million and up to $99.99 million possible. Individual awards will not normally exceed sixty months, and the solicitation contemplates Other Transactions under 10 U.S.C. 4021, 4022, and 4023. Performance is scheduled to end September 29, 2031, and the place of performance is Liberty Township, Ohio 45069.
