Industry Day: DARPA Documentation & Decision Support Sprint (D2)

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Biological Technologies Office is hosting an Industry Day on September 22, 2026, for the Documentation and Decision Support Sprint (D2), a prize competition with registration closing September 20, 2026, at 5:00 PM ET; attendance is limited to the first 1,000 registrants and requires advance registration at https://events.sa-meetings.com/D2IndustryDay.

The D2 competition aims to catalyze advancements in combat medicine through two distinct competition lanes. Lane 1 seeks algorithms that autonomously populate digital DD Form 1380 (TCCC Card) using passively collected sensor data. Lane 2 seeks algorithms providing accurate, real-time clinical decision support to non-medics aligned with Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (CoTCCC) Guidelines and Joint Trauma System Clinical Practice Guidelines (JTS CPGs). Competitors will receive representative data sets including audio, video, and accelerometry data from approximately 20 minutes of simulated casualty care scenarios.

To be eligible to win a cash prize, teams representing entities must be incorporated and maintain a U.S. primary place of business; individuals must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Industry Day participation is voluntary and not required to compete. Interested parties may submit one-page teaming profiles by September 22, 2026, to identify potential team members and capabilities. The event will be conducted at the Unclassified level. Technical inquiries should be directed to Jeremy Pamplin, BTO Program Manager, or D2Sprint@darpa.mil.
