This is a Request for Information (RFI), not a solicitation, seeking sources for a Soldier-worn Blast Overpressure Sensor System (BOSS) that tracks, stores, and transmits blast exposure data to support congressionally mandated longitudinal health studies. The Government wants industry input to assess capability, risk, and feasibility against the Key Performance Parameters and Critical Logistic Specifications detailed in the mandatory requirement document. Vendors must complete and submit the required Excel remarks attachment along with the requirement document as part of their response package. The response should provide sufficient technical data to demonstrate how the vendor fully meets the requirements, with formatting and submission instructions specified in the RFI. This is solely for market research and planning purposes; the Government will not pay for any response costs.

Congress has mandated longitudinal studies on blast overpressure exposure, driving the need for a Soldier-worn Blast Overpressure Sensor System (BOSS) that tracks, stores, and transmits blast events to support brain health monitoring and policy decisions. The Government is issuing this Sources Sought/RFI to identify qualified sources that can meet the system’s Key Performance Parameters and to assess industry capability, risks, and feasibility. The responses will help shape acquisition planning and refine requirements for the BOSS. Interested parties must submit an electronic response in a specified format, including a cover page and completed attachments, via email. This is strictly a Request for Information, not a solicitation, and the Government will not compensate respondents for their submissions.
