BAA for Advancement of Technologies for Use by Special Operations Forces

This publication is a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA), USSOCOM-BAAST-2020, as contemplated in

Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.102(d)(2) and 35.016. Solicitations requesting white papers or

proposals will be accomplished via amendments to BAA USSOCOM-BAAST-2015. BAA USSOCOM-BAAST-

2015 is issued in support of United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) Special Operations

Research, Development, and Acquisition Center (SORDAC) targeted research and development (R&D)

projects.

USSOCOM has a long-term goal to develop technologies to meet Special Operations Forces (SOF) mission

requirements. The intent is to accelerate the delivery of these innovative capabilities to the SOF warfighter.

Prior studies and analyses have determined technical challenges exist for SOF equipment that require

improvements for missions into the future. Those challenges are 1) trade space between weight, protection,

power, and mobility; 2) cost; and 3) system component integration.

***This BAA will remain open for 5 years until 31 December 2025, unless superseded, amended, or

cancelled.***

Periodically, but no less than annually, BAA updates, notices, or individual calls for white papers or proposals

for specific technology areas of interest will be place (via amendment and/or special noticie on the

Government Portal website, https://www.sam.beta.gov/) against BAA USSOCOM-BAAST-2020.

***Technology Areas of Interest will be added to BAA USSOCOM-BAAST-2020.***
