Identify any other solicitation(s) to which this concept has been proposed

[Prime Organization] affirms that neither it nor any proposed subcontractor currently provide scientific, engineering, and technical assistance (SETA), Advisory and Assistance Services (A&AS), or similar support services to any DARPA office(s) through an active contract or subcontract.

1. Phase I (up to five pages)

a. Proposed Approach [Provide a summary of the proposed technical approach to achieve HUBBLE’s goals and metrics. Methods to address the challenges in Phase I must be provided.

b. Technical Challenges [Identify specific challenges associated with this proposed approach. The proposer should include what they think the primary risks are to successful development of the HUBBLE program. In other words, what are the critical challenges related to the proposed approach?]

c. Technical Ability [Detail why the proposer believes their team has the ability to be successful at achieving the goals, if selected to participate in HUBBLE. The proposer may include past experience, organizational capabilities, team members’ qualifications, or anything else that demonstrates competence in designing and demonstrating desired HUBBLE outcomes.]

d. Estimated Cost [Include the estimated total labor cost, and estimated materials and ODCs (equipment, materials, travel, tuition). State if you plan to use the T&E government partner’s computing facility as part of your proposal. Total costs must not exceed $2.0M for 12 months of what would be Government funding. This may be presented as no more than half a page narrative or table and is not included in the five (5) written page limit.]

2. Phase II (up to one page)

a. Proposed Approach [Provide a brief summary of the proposed technical approach continue HUBBLE into Phase II. List differences from methods used in Phase I, if needed. List different challenges and risk mitigation]

d. Future Applications [Include a summary of future application spaces for the proposed approach/ technology developed under HUBBLE. Discuss any potential commercialization opportunities for successful performance under the program (e.g. synthetic cell applications, therapeutics, diagnostics, new fields, etc. ]

3. References [Provide a list of citations. References are not included in the page limit.] DARPA-PA-27-01 – HUBBLE Abstract
