About this opportunity
Army Contracting Command–Red River Army Depot is conducting a continuous Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) under DFARS Subpart 212-70 to modernize the Organic Industrial Base through competitive procurement of innovative commercial items, technologies, and services, with continuous acceptance of Areas of Interest (AoIs) submissions through September 30, 2026, and fixed-price contracts awarded under FAR Part 12 Commercial Item Procedures.
The CSO targets modernization in agile and flexible facilities, connected digital enterprise, advanced manufacturing, digital twin, automation, and cybersecurity—collectively termed Convergent Manufacturing. Both traditional and non-traditional defense contractors are eligible. Contracting Officer evaluation will be conducted by scientific, technological, or other subject matter experts on a rolling basis as proposals arrive, with no obligation to issue requests for proposals or make awards.
As of September 10, 2026, seventeen numbered Areas of Interest remain active or recently closed, spanning manufacturing process automation (fixture removal for Bradley Fighting Vehicle hulls, track pin and bushing production, T-158LL track shoe assembly presses), facility and infrastructure upgrades (Building 325 comprehensive renovation, Building 406A conversion to Group F-1 Factory occupancy, Building 468 electrical services, platform lift installation, blast booth media recycling), vehicle logistics (two micro trucks for Equipment and Heavy Tactical Divisions), advanced test and support systems (power pack interface and test sets, camera monitoring system for test track, ATLAS Crane technical support and training), supply chain solutions (rubber strip stock manufacturing, wire harness production facility, Caterpillar engine sustainment support), workforce management (supplemental labor consolidation across four Army facilities), and specialized manufacturing equipment (overhead torque reaction systems for engine rebuild). Response deadlines range from current to September 30, 2026. All participants must register in SAM.gov and submit written solutions via email to usarmy.rrad.acc.mbx.cso@army.mil with specified subject lines. Inquiries should be directed to CSO AoI POC Jacob J. Horn or respective Contracting Officers identified in individual AoI documents.
Notice text
The U.S. Army recognizes that investments in producibility and advanced manufacturing will need to continue to be made to support a vast array of crucial activities, including but not limited to acquisition, sustainment, logistics, and ultimately the Army’s Modernization of its Organic Industrial base (OIB). In order to deliver impactful operational results, the US Army must modernize the OIB, particularly in the areas of Agile / flexible facilities, connected digital enterprise, advanced manufacturing, Digital Twin, automation, and cyber security. DEVCOM has coined these technologies collectively as Convergent Manufacturing.
With the focus on both “new capabilities” and “operational constructs” convergent manufacturing technologies will accelerate the OIB’s capability to get advanced solutions to the Warfighter while enhancing and optimizing the Defense Manufacturing Base for today and tomorrow’s missions.
This CSO will utilize a solicitation process authorized by DFARS Subpart 212-70. Under this CSO, the DoD will be allowed to competitively procure innovative commercial items, technologies, and services. CSO procedures provide a streamlined acquisition process and simplified contract terms resulting in FAR-based contracts awarded under Part 12 Commercial Item Procedures. Both traditional and non-traditional defense contractors may be awarded contracts under this CSO. Under a CSO DoD contracting officers may competitively select proposals received in response to a general competitive solicitation, similar to a broad agency announcement, based on a review of proposals by scientific, technological, or other subject matter experts.
