About this opportunity
The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright Patterson Air Force Base is seeking industry input through a Request for Information (RFI) focused on advancing propulsion systems development. The RFI targets potential improvements in government policy, investment strategies, and acquisition processes for advanced propulsion technologies. Specific areas of inquiry include aligning government support with industry research and development timelines, exploring risk-sharing mechanisms, identifying regulatory challenges, and developing engagement approaches for early-stage development. Industry respondents are required to submit comprehensive written responses limited to 20 pages, with a deadline of January 15, 2025, at 6:00 PM EDT. Submissions must be transmitted via DoD SAFE to designated points of contact, Mr. Tanner Alley and Mr. Devon Banks, with separate protocols established for classified and unclassified/CUI responses.
This RFI is categorized under the National Defense R&D Services (PSC Code AC15-P) and does not constitute a commitment to issue a Request for Proposal or contract. While no specific set-aside designations are currently identified, the opportunity appears focused on gathering strategic input to accelerate propulsion system advancements, particularly in contexts addressing near-peer adversarial technological capabilities. The RFI suggests potential future industry engagement events may result from these information-gathering efforts. No specific award values or precise budget ranges are outlined in the current documentation. The broader objective seems to be enhancing the Department of Defense's ability to synchronize acquisition processes, complement industry research investments, and explore innovative funding structures for advanced propulsion technologies across new and legacy military fleet applications.
