Background
The Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Cyber, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C5ISR) Center is part of the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command (DEVCOM). DEVCOM's mission is to lead in the discovery, development, and delivery of technology-based capabilities that enhance the lethality of Soldiers to ensure victory in warfare while ensuring their safe return.

This Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) aims to solicit proposals for research and development efforts that align with the needs of the ESI Directorate.

Work Details
This BAA allows for White Paper (WP) submissions at any time until its expiration. The evaluation process consists of a two-step selection approach: Step-One involves submitting descriptive WPs instead of full proposals. Selected Offerors from Step-One will be invited to submit full proposals in Step-Two.

The BAA encourages participation from various entities including small businesses and educational institutions. Proposals must include a detailed technical approach outlining objectives, tasks, key personnel, facilities needed, and related prior work. Additionally, Offerors must address technical risks and mitigation plans, compliance with cybersecurity standards (NIST SP 800-171), and provide a Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) cost estimate for evaluation.

The evaluation criteria include technical merits, capabilities of personnel involved, relevance to ESI Directorate's mission, schedule feasibility, and affordability.

Place of Performance
The geographic locations for performance are not explicitly stated but are implied to be within the United States as part of the U.S. Army's operational framework.
