About this opportunity
The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Materials and Manufacturing Directorate (RXC) is soliciting white papers for the Experiments, Prototypes, Research, and Evaluation Supporting Systems (EXPRESS) contract opportunity. The purpose is to provide experimentation, evaluation, and assessment of structural materials and processes technologies for Air Force and Space Force applications. Key objectives include meeting validated system requirements, sustaining or modernizing installations/operations, demonstrating new/improved structural materials in prototypes or fielded systems, and transitioning materials and processes to ensure required capabilities are available for national defense. Proposal solicitations for specific Closed Calls will be requested under separate solicitations, each with its own requirements. The evaluation criteria and important dates, such as the February 14, 2027 due date, are not provided in the materials.
This is an unrestricted opportunity, with no set-aside designations. The place of performance is WRIGHT PATTER, OH 45433, USA. The total estimated value or budget range is not disclosed. The NAICS code is 541715 - Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences, and the PSC code is AC13-P - National Defense R&D Services.
Notice text
The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Materials and Manufacturing Directorate (RXC) are soliciting white papers on the research efforts described in Attachment 1, EXPRESS Statement of Objectives (SOO). Proposal solicitations pursuant to Closed Calls will be requested under separate Closed Call solicitations. Each Closed Call will contain specific requirements pertinent to that particular Closed Call. Unless otherwise stated in a specific Closed Call, all other requirements are listed within this ARA.
The purpose of this effort is to provide experimentation, evaluation, and assessment of structural materials and processes technologies for Air Force and Space Force applications aimed at meeting validated systems requirements or to sustain and/or modernize installations or operations required for general research, development, test, and evaluation, provide demonstration of new and improved structural materials in experimental prototypes or upgraded fielded or nearing production systems, and to provide transition of materials and processes to ensure required capabilities are available for the national defense.
