Website: BAA - Technology Focused Areas of Interest
Description: The US Army Business Interface Office is looking to identify and develop technologies for the purpose of generating future armament systems. This Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) sets forth research areas of interest to the RDECOM-ARDEC, Business Interface Office, and is issued under paragraph 6.102(d)(2) of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), which provides for the competitive selection of proposals. The ARDEC research, development, and engineering facility is responsible for the full life-cycle of small, medium, and large-caliber ammunition and weapons, including mortars, tank guns, and artillery cannons for howitzers. Additionally, ARDEC provides tank turret support for ABRAMS and Crew Cooling for ABRAMS, Bradley, and LAV combat vehicles and supports the Army's industrial base at the Watervliet Arsenal. Efforts under this BAA should focus on the development and demonstration of technology for current and future generation munitions and armament systems.
This shall be accomplished via investigative efforts in the following general technology areas:
Advanced Materials / Testing Methodology / Electronics / Manufacturing Sciences / Modeling and Simulation / Optics / Biometrics / Power, Energy and Environmental Management Sciences / Acoustics / Data Fusion / Advanced Design Technologies / Sustainment, Health Monitoring and Supply Chain Management / Technology Exploitation
