Disruptive Capabilities for Future Warfare

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Tactical Technology Office seeks executive summaries, proposal abstracts, and proposals for applied research, advanced technology development, and platform demonstrations to enable disruptive capabilities for future warfare. Concepts are solicited across air systems, ground systems, maritime systems, space systems, and crosscutting themes in support of DARPA's mission. Proposals will be evaluated based on overall scientific and technical merit, potential contribution and relevance to DARPA's mission, cost realism, and experience. Proposals are due by 4:00 PM Eastern Time on June 11, 2019.

There is no set-aside designated. Relevant NAICS codes include 541715 for research and development in physical, engineering, and life sciences and 561210 for space research and technology. Multiple awards are anticipated for initial efforts of up to 18 months in duration and less than $1 million, though follow-on options extending timelines and increasing budgets are possible. Evaluation will consider technical approach and qualifications without regard for potential contractors.
