About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Air Force Research Laboratory's Sensors Directorate is soliciting proposals for the HEDORA (Call 03) research effort under the Kaiju Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) to develop electronic warfare assessment technology. The solicitation is a two-step process requiring white papers first, with vendors needing an active entity registration (CAGE code) and DD2345 to receive detailed technical information. White papers are due by September 13, 2024, with final proposals to be submitted at a later date. Evaluation criteria will focus on the uniqueness and innovation of the technical approach, offeror's understanding of the scope, technical approach soundness, and affordability. The research aims to facilitate the development and transition of electronic warfare technologies from models to prototypes, with a specific focus on RF modeling, simulation, anechoic chamber capabilities, and open-air instrumentation.

The procurement has a total program value of $20 million, with the government anticipating awards to two contractors by December 31, 2024. The 48-month period of performance will primarily involve on-site work at the RYWD in-house laboratory facilities in Wright Patterson, Ohio, with a potential small portion of off-site work. The anticipated funding will be split approximately 45% ($9 million) for Task 1 Modeling & Simulation Analysis and 55% ($11 million) for Task 2 Electronic Warfare Chamber and Open-Air Experimentation. The contract has a facility clearance level of SECRET and will require contractor access to Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) and non-SCI national intelligence information. No specific set-aside designations are noted for this opportunity, making it open to a broad range of potential contractors within the research and development sector.
