Redefining Possible - 2022

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Tactical Technology Office seeks executive summaries, proposal abstracts, and proposals for applied research, advanced technology development, platform demonstrations, or systems studies to redefine future warfighting across air, ground, maritime, and space domains through revolutionary system architectures that are disaggregated, dispersed, diversified, disruptive, and instill doubt in adversaries. Proposals are due by June 21, 2023 and should address focus areas including technologies for next generation unmanned air systems, distributed ground systems, maritime systems enabling a dispersed system-of-systems architecture, and new space architectures that complicate adversary counter-space capabilities.

No set-aside designation is specified. Awards are anticipated to be less than $1 million for periods of up to 18 months, though larger awards and extended performance periods through follow-on options are possible. Proposers must complete the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's Standard Cost Proposal Spreadsheet including labor rates, indirect rates, subcontractors and consultants, other direct costs, and total projected costs by fiscal year. Potential incumbents were not named.
