Subject: Army Applications Lab Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for Disruptive Applications
Due Date: Immediate Inactive Date: 16 May 2024
Government Organization: U. S. Army Applications Lab (Army Futures Command)
Description: AAL is seeking technologies that address a wide range of Army needs consistent with CFT capability focus areas and associated programs and lines of effort as well as potentially disruptive new capabilities that augment or enhance Army capability overmatch. A key focus for AAL is to identify and transition new technologies, methodologies, and concepts related to:
1. Translational Research - Approaches and methodologies that accelerate the Army’s innovation cycle through the translation of emerging technologies to Army capability objectives, including the Army’s six modernization priorities and associated programs and lines of effort.
2. Fourth Industrial Revolution Technologies - Approaches and methodologies that are characterized by a fusion of technologies in the physical, digital, and biological spheres. Specific technologies of interest include robotics; artificial intelligence; autonomy; augmented and virtual reality; nanotechnology; quantum information systems; synthetic biology and biotechnology; Internet of Things (IoT); space systems; advanced networking, communications, and command and control technology; additive manufacturing; and power and energy systems.
3. Commercialization - Approaches and methodologies that support the research and development of dual-use solutions - i.e., solutions that support both emerging Army needs and scalable commercial markets.
