The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) has released a draft solicitation for its upcoming AFRL Multiple Award Contract (AMAC) IDIQ vehicle, a major effort designed to streamline science and technology acquisitions across AFRL and the U.S. Space Force.
The contract is expected to cover a broad range of research and development activities, including data science, modeling and simulation, advanced manufacturing, technology development, experimentation, and technology transition. It will support work across five major technical domains: air, space, cyberspace/electronic warfare, cross-cutting technologies, and basic research.
Why contractors are watching: AMAC could become a significant long-term R&D vehicle, with multiple awards planned through unrestricted and small business pools. Awardees are expected to receive five-year base contracts with three one-year option periods, creating recurring task-order potential across high-priority defense technology areas.
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is conducting market research for a potential Cyber Technology Services contract supporting its Cybersecurity Division Threat Hunting Sub-Division.
The effort would provide mission-critical cyber, IT, engineering, analytics, and operational support services across multiple CISA locations. The requirement covers eight functional areas, including program management, IT architecture, software engineering, data analytics, cybersecurity operations, laboratory support, and service desk functions.
Contractors may respond if they can support all eight task areas or at least four of the identified functional areas.
Why contractors are watching: The anticipated contract includes a one-year base period and four option years, with performance expected in Virginia, Washington, D.C., Florida, and Idaho. It is especially relevant for firms with federal cybersecurity experience, advanced threat-hunting capabilities, and cleared personnel.
The U.S. Coast Guard is seeking administrative support services for multiple operational and logistics functions supporting its Aviation Logistics Center and related organizations in Elizabeth City, North Carolina.

The effort includes approximately 51 full-time equivalents across roles such as administrative assistants, procurement technicians, logisticians, training specialists, and protocol support personnel.
Work will primarily be performed in Elizabeth City, with limited support in Washington, D.C. Personnel must be able to obtain government facility access and required background clearances.
