About this opportunity
The Air Force Research Laboratory seeks proposals for the Decision Advantage Sprint for Human Machine Teaming (DASH) Event, a two-week technical demonstration and prototype development activity focused on command and control decision advantage, with proposals due June 5, 2026, at 5 p.m. Wright-Patterson AFB time. This is an unrestricted BAA solicitation with no set-aside; small businesses are encouraged.
The event runs July 13–23, 2026, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Government anticipates awarding one or more firm fixed-price contracts with a total estimated program cost of $216,000 and a maximum of $36,000 per selected offeror. Multiple awards are anticipated. Award notification is expected on or about June 18, 2026.
Offerors must possess Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 1 (Self) assessment to be eligible. All contractor personnel requiring access to USAF bases, AFRL facilities, or U.S. Government IT networks must be U.S. citizens, with limited exceptions for foreign nationals under international personnel exchange agreements and dual citizens possessing U.S. citizenship. All covered individuals (senior and key personnel contributing substantively to R&D) must submit a Research and Related Senior and Key Person Profile, Security Program Questionnaire, and Privacy Act Statement consent forms at proposal submission. Foreign-owned firms must notify the Contracting Officer before responding; foreign industry is not authorized at the prime contractor level.
The solicitation is closed and requires full technical and cost proposals (not white papers), including a Statement of Work, Technical/Management proposal, Cost/Business volume, Security Program Questionnaire, Senior Key Person Profile Worksheet, Privacy Act forms, and Section K Representations and Certifications. Proposals must address only the two-week event demonstration and prototype development. Evaluation focuses on demonstrated functional relevance and contribution to human-machine team decision-making, with contractors delivering a working Minimum Viable Product and final outbrief during the event.
NAICS code is 541715. The Government retains data rights including unlimited rights to technical data, computer software, and documentation, with commercial computer software to receive customary commercial licenses. Amendment 3 (issued June 3) extended the deadline by two days from June 3 to June 5. Amendment 2 (issued June 1) added Attachment 6 (Pre-submission AMA Briefing slides from May 29) and Attachment 7 (Q&A document from June 1).

BAA No. FA2384-26-S-B004, Joint All-Domain Transformational Model II
Solicitation No. FA2384-26-S-B006, Decision Advantage Sprint for Human Machine Teaming (DASH) Event
The Joint All Domain Persistent Adaptive Collaborative Technologies (JADPACT) Project seeks to develop Human-Machine Teaming (HMT) concepts that leverage AI/Automation capabilities to support Battle Managers. C2 Decision Advantage events provide support for the ABMS Transformational Model decision functions and an opportunity to learn about and explore many different AI/automation approaches for Battle Management. Furthermore, the events and R&D aim to ensure warfighter involvement in the development of AI/autonomy and further identify areas where autonomy would support Battle Managers. The goal is to include industry to ensure work being done to develop and adapt the latest, cutting-edge AI/automation approaches can be leveraged and adapted to the needs of Battle Managers. This will be accomplished by seeking unique and innovative solutions to accomplish the defined technical requirements.
The Combined Joint All-Domain Command and Control (CJADC2) Campaign Plan 2030 defines decision advantage as the ability to consistently make better, timelier decisions than the adversary. Current DAF command and control (C2) systems and processes are optimized for low intensity conflict and do not address decision advantage over the pacing challenge. Deriving effective C2 capability development toward decision advantage requires a clear understanding of what C2 decisions are. The DAF Advanced Battle Management System (ABMS) Cross Functional Team (CFT) provides a quantitative model for the Joint Warfighting Function of C2 as the Command, Plan, and Battle Management decision domains. Each of these decision domains are decomposed in the Transformational Model for Decision Advantage (TM-DA) using model-based systems engineering which bring these C2 decisions to light in a detailed manner.
The Decision Advantage Sprint for Human-Machine Teaming (DASH) event is tentatively scheduled for 13 July - 23 July 2026 in Las Vegas, NV. A virtual Ask Me Anything session is scheduled for 29 May 2026 at 1100 EST (Details in paragraph 2.2 of the Call).
