Description

As published on SAM.gov.

AFRL Rocket Lab ARA is a two-step open ARA with the ability of issuing future calls that enable study efforts on novel concepts, as well as research and development contracts to mature specific technologies to appropriate technology readiness levels (TRL) depending on end use. Specific award details are described below, but the Government anticipates awarding multiple contracts of varying duration and value. However, the maximum single award value issued against this ARA is currently no more than $500M. This ARA allows consideration of white papers as well as calls issued by the Government when specific requirements are identified.

Amendment 01: Updated ARA to reference RFO language and change to contracting POC
