About this opportunity

The Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), acting on behalf of the US Army Rapid Equipping Force (REF), is procuring a best-effort design, review, and testing service for a vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) unmanned aerial systems (UAS) in a tethered configuration. This procurement action was posted on October 18, 2013, with a response due date of November 14, 2013, and encompasses work within Fulton County and Atlanta City jurisdictions. The primary objective is to develop a persistent Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) and Force Protection system capable of meeting performance specification thresholds and objectives outlined in the Project Soter Performance Specifications document. The deliverables include the design, development, and testing of the UAS to ensure it meets or exceeds specified performance metrics for operation in austere and remote locations where small unit operations are conducted. Interested parties must follow all attached submission instructions for proposal responses, though specific evaluation criteria, technical qualifications, and detailed performance requirements are referenced in the Project Soter Performance Specifications provided with the solicitation.

The procurement documentation provided does not explicitly detail any set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise restrictions, or incumbent vendor information that would limit competition to specific organization types. No award value or budget range is specified in the available information, and no details regarding required infrastructure integration or technology compatibility are included in this summary document. Prospective respondents should consult the complete solicitation package and attached Project Soter Performance Specifications for comprehensive details regarding qualifications, evaluation methodology, and any restrictions on eligible vendors. Organizations interested in pursuing this opportunity should note the relatively short response window between the posting date and the November 14, 2013 deadline.
