Autonomous Resupply Sources Sought/Request For Information

The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) is seeking industry sources capable of providing autonomous resupply capabilities suitable for contested environments in Europe. This Pre-Solicitation Notice requests that potential vendors submit brief descriptions, white papers, or brochures detailing their proposed autonomous resupply solutions. The Government is in the early information-gathering phase to assess market capabilities and identify qualified sources before issuing a formal solicitation. Vendors should be prepared to demonstrate technical feasibility, operational viability in contested settings, and relevance to European theater operations. The deadline for submitting source information is January 1, 2026, providing interested parties approximately four weeks to prepare and submit their responses. While specific evaluation criteria have not been detailed in this Pre-Solicitation Notice, USSOCOM will likely assess submissions based on technical capability, innovation, operational effectiveness, and organizational capacity to deliver solutions meeting special operations requirements. Interested contractors should monitor the Federal Procurement Data System or relevant contracting channels for updates regarding the formal solicitation timeline and additional requirements.

No set-aside designations have been applied to this procurement opportunity, meaning all eligible contractors regardless of size or ownership classification may compete. The Pre-Solicitation Notice does not identify any incumbent contractors or current service providers, suggesting this may represent a new capability requirement or expansion of existing programs. Award values, budget ranges, and specific contract quantities have not been disclosed at this stage, as USSOCOM is still in the market research phase. Timeline details for contract performance, delivery schedules, or service commencement have similarly not been specified in this notice. Potential respondents should expect that detailed technical specifications, performance metrics, and contractual terms will be provided in the formal solicitation expected to follow this information-gathering period.
