About this opportunity
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) is seeking proposals for revolutionary research ideas across a wide range of technology areas, including advanced electronics, photonics, materials, manufacturing, and defense applications. The BAA solicits proposals for early-stage research studies as well as longer-term projects, with the goal of addressing topics not currently being addressed by ongoing MTO programs or other published solicitations. Proposals may be submitted on a rolling basis, with abstract deadlines on January 6, 2024 and full proposals due by March 16, 2024. Awards are expected to begin approximately 120 days after proposal submission and may take the form of procurement contracts, grants, cooperative agreements, or other transactions.
This opportunity is not set-aside for any specific business category. DARPA anticipates making multiple awards, but does not specify any incumbent contractors or potential award values. The solicitation encourages proposals from for-profit organizations, educational institutions, and other nonprofits, with the option for academic institutions to utilize a streamlined proposal preparation process for studies 12 months or less in duration and costing $500,000 or less. Cost-sharing is encouraged but not required.
