Request for Information: Multi-Source PNT UE

Notice ID:MultiSourcePNT_RFI_01

The Space Force has issued a market-research RFI seeking industry input on Multi-Source PNT user equipment for the NAVWAR Objective Force, covering terrestrial military platforms, disadvantaged/high-value users, and space service volume small and large satellite users. The RFI emphasizes modular open system architectures, onboard fusion of M-code/CA/commercial and other PNT sources, and technical details to support SWAC force-design analysis. Respondents must describe security, cybersecurity, and supply-chain posture, including facility/personnel clearances, COMSEC, CUI/CDI safeguarding under NIST SP 800-171/SPRS/CMMC Level 2+, NDAA Section 889 compliance, SCRM, and IP/data rights. Unclassified responses are page-limited to 15 single-sided pages and submitted via DoD Safe, classified submissions are accepted with coordination, foreign firms may participate only as subcontractors, and PNT modernization signals are projected to be available by 2035. This RFI is solely for planning and market research, does not commit the government to contract or pay respondent costs, and may inform future mechanisms such as AFRL STAR, SSC SpEC OTA, or reverse industry days.

Request for Information: Multi-Source PNT UE

Notice ID:MultiSourcePNT_RFI_01

This RFI is for market research only and seeks analytical information on industry capabilities for Multi-Source PNT User Equipment supporting the NAVWAR Objective Force. It focuses on terrestrial military platforms, disadvantaged users, high-value assets, and space users across various orbits, using Modular Open System Architectures and an onboard fusion engine with M-code, CA, and commercial signals. Respondents must address facility/personnel clearances, CUI/CDI safeguarding, NIST SP 800-171, SPRS, CMMC Level 2+, NDAA Section 889, supply chain risk management, and expected data rights. M-Code is available today, while PNT modernization signals are projected to be available by 2035. Foreign firms cannot participate as prime contractors but may subcontract if eligible, and responses must be unclassified via DoD Safe, limited to 15 pages, with possible sharing to AFRL/SWAC support contractors unless restricted.

Request for Information: Multi-Source PNT UE

Notice ID:MultiSourcePNT_RFI_01

The Space Force, in cooperation with the Space Warfighting Analysis Center, is conducting this RFI for market research on Multi-Source PNT user equipment (UE) to support the NAVWAR Objective Force, not as a solicitation or commitment to contract. Areas of interest include terrestrial and space user equipment using MOSA, onboard fusion engines, support for M-Code/CA/commercial signals, disadvantaged users, high-value military assets, and small/large satellite users. The military-specific M-Code is available today, while PNT modernization signals are projected to be available by 2035. Respondents must address security, cybersecurity, and supply-chain posture, including facility and personnel clearances, CUI/CDI safeguarding, NIST SP 800-171, CMMC Level 2 or higher, NDAA Section 889 compliance, SCRM, and data rights/IP restrictions. Foreign firms cannot participate at the prime contractor level but may participate as subcontractors if eligible, and responses may be shared with AFRL/SWAC support contractors unless a restriction is stated.
