Rapid Assured Access (R2A)
The Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) is seeking potential sources to provide rapid, long-term assured semiconductor foundry access through its Rapid Assured Access (R2A) program. This Sources Sought Notice aims to gather information on vendor capabilities to help structure future IDIQ contracts for a full range of wafer manufacturing and related services, from prototype to production. The performance location for services is specified as domestic within the United States. The program's objectives are to rapidly deploy technology, increase production capacity, and reinvent the semiconductor acquisition system for the Department of War. Interested vendors are encouraged to submit a capabilities statement not exceeding twenty pages.
