The Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Procurement Headquarters issued a draft solicitation for the AMAC (AFRL Multiple Award Contract) IDIQ vehicle on May 13, 2026, with feedback due by June 15, 2026. This is not a formal solicitation and does not obligate the Government to award a contract; AFRL actively seeks industry input and constructive feedback on draft documentation to refine the final solicitation. All responses must be submitted in writing to afrl.amac.mailbox@us.af.mil.
The AMAC is designed to streamline acquisition of Science and Technology research across AFRL and Space Force, covering nine work categories including basic and applied research, data science, technology development, modeling and simulation, manufacturing and fabrication, experimentation and testbed development, integration and demonstration, and technology transition. Five primary technical domain areas are specified: air domain (14 sub-areas), space domain (9 sub-areas), cyberspace/electronic warfare (19 sub-areas), cross-cutting technologies (24 sub-areas), and basic research (28 sub-areas).
Initial awardees receive five-year IDIQ contracts with three one-year renewal options. The Government intends to award multiple contracts under both unrestricted and small business competition pools. Foreign firms and companies under Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence are prohibited. Proposals require three volumes: executive documentation and representations, technical narratives demonstrating S&T maturation and area of interest proficiency within the past seven years (five pages each), and small business participation commitments and subcontracting plans with goals of 33% small business, 12% small disadvantaged business, 8% women-owned small business, 5% service-disabled veteran-owned small business, and 1% HUBZone participation. All delivery orders and task orders will be unclassified. The Government reserves the right to re-open competition to add contractors or remove underperformers after 30 days' notice.

The procurement is a 100% competitive 8(a) set-aside, restricted to certified 8(a) small businesses.
Place of performance is Portsmouth, Virginia and Kittery, Maine, with work potentially performed remotely or at other government locations as directed. The contract spans a base period from April 17, 2027 through April 16, 2028, plus four one-year option periods through April 16, 2032. The government establishes a per-order minimum of $10,000 and maximum of $20,000,000, with a total contract ceiling of $100,000,000 across all periods.
The solicitation addresses NAICS 541990, All Other Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services, with a size standard of $19.5 million. Approximately 44 labor categories are required, spanning architecture, engineering, construction management, planning, and administrative disciplines, including specialized positions such as Extreme Weather Hazards and Geological Hazards Resilience Specialist. Most labor categories are priced at $1,920 per hour (1,920 estimated hours per year), with three exceptions: Construction Scheduler – Senior at $3,840 per hour, Construction Engineering Technician at $15,360 per hour, and Construction Engineering Technician 2nd Shift at $17,280 per hour. All rates are fully burdened; no indirect rate markups apply to subcontractors, other direct costs, or travel.
Contractor personnel must be U.S. citizens capable of obtaining a Common Access Card (CAC) with a favorable National Agency Check/Tier 3 investigation. Employees must be onboarded within 30 days and are prohibited from serving as voting members on source selection boards or holding inherently governmental positions. Service Contract Act wage determinations apply for York County, Maine and Portsmouth-area Virginia/North Carolina counties.
The incumbent contractor is Bristol Infrastructure Design Services under Contract N6247022D0004. Historical staffing includes 3 Administrative Assistants, 9 Construction Managers, 2 Senior Construction Schedulers, and 8 Construction Engineering Technicians on an annual basis.
Award will be made on best-value basis weighing price and three equally-weighted non-price factors: Corporate Experience (up to five recent projects valued $5 million or more demonstrating multi-location project management and key personnel qualifications), Safety (five years of DART and TCR rates with trend analysis plus safety management system narrative), and Past Performance (CPARS evaluations or Past Performance Questionnaires from clients). Projects completed or substantially completed within ten years of the solicitation release date are acceptable for both evaluation factors.
Amendment 0003 (effective May 28, 2026) contains responses to previous inquiries. Offerors must acknowledge receipt of all three prior amendments before the June 4 deadline or face rejection. Proposals must be submitted via the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) Solicitation Module.

Aberdeen Proving Ground announced the 2026 Advance Planning Briefing to Industry (APBI) for 21-22 April 2026 at Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland, offering a hybrid format with both in-person and virtual attendance via Microsoft Teams. The event is a non-competitive government-to-industry briefing on anticipated contracting opportunities for Fiscal Years 2028-2029; the government will not receive formal bids. No procurement set-aside applies to this briefing event itself.
The APBI showcases contract opportunities across multiple Army organizations including the Capability Program Executive (CPE) Intelligence and Spectrum Warfare, CPE Command and Control Integrated Network, CPE Science and Technology, CPE Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Defense, CECOM, ATEC, DEVCOM C5ISR Center, and Army Research Laboratory. Briefed opportunities span hundreds of millions to billions of dollars and include engineering and technical assistance services, cyber protection enterprise platforms, simulation and training systems, field support services, test and evaluation capabilities, and logistics support across dozens of specific programs. Contract vehicles advertised include cost-plus-fixed-fee, firm fixed-price, indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity (IDIQ), multiple-award task orders on existing vehicles (RS3, MAPS, GWAC, OTA), and other transaction authorities.
Industry was invited to complete a preference survey by 20 March 2026 to indicate interest in specific contract opportunities for deeper discussions and one-on-one interactions. In-person attendance required registration through Eventbrite through 21-22 April. Virtual attendees accessed Microsoft Teams broadcast links without prior registration. An industry social was held 22 April 2026, 6-8 PM, at Watchtower Brewing Company in Aberdeen, Maryland.
