About this opportunity

This Broad Agency Announcement from the Missile Defense Agency seeks white papers and research proposals across a wide range of advanced technology topics in support of applied research efforts without a focus on any single system. Offerors are invited to submit proposals for evaluation in areas such as radar and RF systems, sensors, directed energy, computer science, mathematics, materials, phenomenology, space systems, modeling and simulation, and artificial intelligence. Evaluation will consider factors including the soundness of technical and management approaches, the qualifications of key personnel, and the realism of proposed costs, with all white papers due no later than April 1, 2021.

There is no set-aside designation specified. Research areas align primarily with NAICS code 541712 for research and development in physical, engineering and life sciences as well as PSC code R408 for advanced technology development. Any resulting contracts would have a period of performance between one to three years to support applied research without directing development of hardware or systems. No minimum or maximum award values were provided but work under this announcement is intended for advanced research before directed development of hardware or systems.
