They want innovative ideas to integrate into ground and air platforms, with a focus on securely transmitting data across the Army's network. This is an opportunity for businesses to contribute to the Army's efforts in Systems Integration, C5I Engineering, and Readiness Engineering.

This Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) is an open call for proposals, meaning the Army is looking for novel solutions rather than specific products or services. If your firm has expertise in these areas, this is a chance to present your research and development capabilities directly to the Army.

Key dates and what happens at the deadline

This solicitation was published on November 01, 2022. The deadline for submitting proposals is October 31, 2027, at 11:59 PM ET. This is a long-term open call, allowing vendors ample time to develop and submit their research proposals.

Companies with a background in secure data transmission, network solutions, and rapid prototyping for soldier-centric system design will find this BAA relevant. This is ideal for businesses that can propose cutting-edge solutions rather than just fulfilling existing requirements.
