The Department of the Air Force wants industry to submit research proposals to support the characterization and assessment of space domain awareness and space superiority.
According to the updated notice posted on Sam.gov Wednesday, the Air Force Research Laboratory is seeking submissions related to the design, development, demonstration and test of technologies for intelligent data tasking, collection, processing, exploitation, analysis and dissemination.
The AFRL expects to issue multiple awards for research services covering experimental techniques and applications from ground, orbital and cyber intelligence analysis. The awards have a combined estimated value of $99 million. Individual awards will likely fall between $1 million and $10 million and last up to four years, but exceptions could be made, provided they do not exceed the available contract ceiling amount.
Interested offerors may submit their proposals by Nov. 30 of each fiscal year beginning in fiscal year 2025 and ending in FY 2029.
