Description
Amendment 1 - Discrepancies in due dates were corrected in P. 27 of the BAA document, Section D. Submission Instructions : Executive summaries and proposal abstracts should be submitted on or before 12:00 AM Eastern Time, 3 February 2027. Full proposals must be submitted on or before 12:00 AM Eastern Time, 3 March 2027. Opportunity Description - The Space Development Agency (SDA) is soliciting executive summaries, proposal abstracts, and proposals for novel architecture concepts, systems, technologies, and capabilities that enable leap-ahead improvements for future Proliferated Warfighter Space Architecture (PWSA) tranches, capability layers, or, enable new capability layers to address other emerging or evolving warfighter needs. NOTE - Although not required, SDA strongly encourages submitting an executive summary in advance of a full proposal to ensure interest and potential funding availability. SDA releases an updated Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) on an annual basis. Because SDA strives to always maintain an active BAA with similar focus areas, proposers are discouraged from submitting uninvited full proposals shortly before the BAA proposal due date simply to meet the submission deadline. They should consider instead submitting an executive summary to the subsequent BAA.
