This Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) seeks revolutionary research ideas for topics not being addressed by ongoing IPTO programs or other published solicitations.
Potential proposers are highly encouraged to visit the IPTO technical office page (https://www.darpa.mil/about/offices/ipto) to view current and upcoming IPTO programs and solicitations in order to avoid proposing efforts that duplicate existing activities or that are responsive to other published IPTO solicitations.
IPTO seeks groundbreaking information science, technology development and fundamentally new information capabilities centered on AI Innovation and Execution, Inherent Security and Privacy, and Resilient Megasystems, and will also consider novel capabilities outside those thrusts promising decisive information or computational advantage. Proposed research should enable revolutionary advances using unconventional approaches outside the mainstream, with specifically excluded work that primarily results in evolutionary improvements, and awards may be made as procurement contracts, research Other Transactions, prototype Other Transactions, cooperative agreements or grants.
We post new science & technology research opportunities in Virginia as agencies publish them. Get them in one email — free, and unsubscribe whenever.

One prequalification covers both — on this bid and the next.
A surety’s written statement that it expects to bond you up to a stated amount, subject to final underwriting. It’s what an agency asks to see before they take your bid seriously.
