REST_Proposal Templates_9-21-26.zip

This file is a proposal templates package for the Restorative and health-Enhancing Sleep Time (REST) program solicitation (ARPA-H-SOL-26-159) issued by the Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H) under the Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health. The template package provides standardized formatting and structure guidance for organizations responding to this solicitation and does not contain specific technical requirements, performance metrics, or contractual terms.

The REST program seeks to transform sleep health measurement and treatment through objective, home-based, closed-loop technologies capable of detecting health-relevant sleep microstructures and responding to them in real time. This solicitation employs a three-stage evaluation process: Solution Summaries reviewed on an encourage/discourage basis, Proposals evaluated on an invite/not invited basis, and Pitches evaluated on a selected for negotiation/not selected basis. The solicitation has undergone nine amendments addressing clarifications to technical requirements, success metrics, program milestones, proposal requirements, and the addition of this proposal template folder as an attachment to guide respondents in their submission preparation.
