Description

As published on SAM.gov.

The mission of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) includes rapid identification and development of new technologies to counter emerging threats. Traditional procurement contracts are used to purchase supplies and services for the direct benefit and use of DHS, while assistance is provided through grants and cooperative agreements.

Recognizing that those traditional instruments do not cover all the DHS needs, Congress provided DHS with authority to enter into “Other Transactions” in the same manner as the Department of Defense. DHS has developed a framework to utilize the flexibility of the Other Transaction Authority (OTA).

This “Innovation Other Transaction Solicitation” (OTS) is a vehicle to engage with organizations that do not usually work with the Government in order to carry out prototype projects and possibly transition successful projects to production. This engagement is intended to assist new companies, so they have more opportunities to work with DHS through targeted non-dilutive funding and provide opportunities for operational testing and market access.

Through the DHS Science and Technology Directorate’s (S&T’s) Silicon Valley Innovation Program (SVIP), DHS intends to incentivize product developers to open the aperture of their development roadmaps to include homeland security solutions. Please see additional information regarding this opportunity in the attached document. The Government is not requesting applications at this time.

Submission requirements, content, and formatting for applications and other required documentation shall be in accordance with each Technical Call. Applicants should periodically check the SAM.gov website for any amendments to this solicitation and the associated Calls. 8/7/2024 Update - Provision of Revision 1 to OTS 70RSAT21R00000006.
