About this opportunity

The Department of Defense's Air Force Cryptologic Office (AFCO) is soliciting innovative commercial technologies through Commercial Solutions Opening FA7037-21-S-C001, with a response date of September 30, 2027. No set-aside is used. A November 12, 2026 amendment removed Topics 2 and 4, leaving AFCO-CM-001 (Electromagnetic Warfare) and AFCO-CM-003 (Electromagnetic Digital Communications) in scope. Phase I requires a one-page quad chart and a two-page white paper, accepted at any time before the response date and sent to 16AF.AFCOCM.BIZOPS@us.af.mil. Phase I evaluation uses peer or scientific review of technical merit and applicability, importance to the AFCO/CM mission, and fund availability. Selected offerors are invited to submit Phase II proposals within 30 calendar days of invitation, including a technical proposal (maximum 10 pages), detailed pricing, and a Statement of Work (3-5 pages). Offerors must be SAM-registered and responsible contractors with satisfactory performance records. Awards are Firm Fixed Price or Fixed Price Incentive contracts, or other transactions under 10 U.S.C. 2371b, with individual awards expected to range from $50,000 to $50,000,000 over 1-5 years. The Government may fund all, some, one, or none of the proposals and may fund incrementally. Projects should ideally demonstrate field capability within one year and support open architecture approaches such as SOSA, OMS/UCI, and containerization. Administrative inquiries go to Contracting Officer Ms. Carissa Heuertz at carissa.heuertz@us.af.mil.
