See attachment for full Request for Information (RFI) The Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, Architecture and Integration Directorate, (AFLCMC/XA) is conducting market research of Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) capabilities related to rapidly evolving and emerging requirements. AFLCMC/XA seeks to better characterize the technological, manufacturing, and performance capabilities of the industrial base to develop and produce upgrades to DE prototypes and related C-UAS subsystems, and enabling relevant engineering efforts. AFLCMC/XA will use this information to inform its trade space analysis of solutions for engagement and mission level modeling and simulation and program cost estimates for potential further technical maturation of the DE C-UAS systems. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. It is important to note that this RFI is not a Request for Proposal (RFP). This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes. It does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) or a promise to issue an RFP in the future. This RFI is issued to characterize industry capabilities to develop C-UAS capabilities. The information provided in this RFI is subject to change and is not binding upon the U.S. Government. This RFI does not commit the U.S. Government to contract for any supply or service. AFLCMC/XA is not seeking proposals at this time, and will not accept unsolicited proposals.

This notice shall not be construed as a commitment by the Government to issue a solicitation or ultimately award a contract, nor does it restrict the Government to a particular acquisition approach. Any information provided to the Government as a result of this RFI is voluntary. The information, data, comments, or reactions obtained may be used as research for a future solicitation. Respondents will not necessarily be notified of the results of the review from this RFI. All submissions will be used for review in the context of this RFI or related potential future solicitations, and will be held and used for these purposes only. Submissions will not be returned to the respondent. UPDATE: Thank you for your interest in RFI-CUAS-20-01, Counter Unmanned Aerial Systems (C-UAS) Capabilities. The Government is preparing an upcoming RFP to be released soon via Advanced Battle Management Systems (ABMS) IDIQ, Category 6 – Effects Integration. Please note that you must be included in that category pool to compete for requirements under that category via the Fair Opportunity process. Please take necessary action(s) to ensure you can compete for the upcoming RFP. BAA for ABMS ID/IQ Contract: https://beta.sam.gov/opp/1b02b34f0b0c4f6893dae6d1c18fa7ce/view
