Amendment 2: This Amendment deletes the original Attachment 4 and replaces with Attach 4 - Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) dated 20210327. This Amendment also adds a new Attachment which includes the Questions & Answers (Q&A) for this BAA. Amendment 1: This Amendment deletes bullet “Potential game-changing approaches to HPEM generation such as Ultra-short Pulsed Laser (USPL) based Sources” from page 5 of the BAA solicitation to match the task order SOO for the five (5) technical areas of the initial task order. This Amendment also establishes a deadline for questions to be submitted to the contracting points of contact on page 8. This is a Closed, One-Step Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) (without Calls) to solicit proposals for the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Directed Energy Directorate (RD), High Power Electromagnetic Division (RDH), Advanced High Power Electromagnetic Source Research (AHSR) program. The objective of AHSR is to conduct research addressing the AF and DoD requirements for HPEM technologies - the research phase. It aims to develop successful HPEM source technologies and components required for consideration to address future mission requirements. This program researches the physics of HPEM technologies such as tunable high power oscillators, broad frequency bandwidth high power amplifiers, structures to radiate the generated high power pulse, and ancillary technologies such pulsed power, cathodes, System Engineering and safety. AFRL/RDH’s HPEM Sources has been successful in developing and demonstrating the potential for HPEM systems to provide game-changing capabilities in combat operations. The Full Text Announcement is included as an attachment. There will be no other announcement issued for this requirement. Offerors must monitor beta.SAM.gov in the event this BAA is amended.
