Request for Information (RFI) for C-sUAS Kinetic Hard-Kill Solutions FA4659-RFI-CSUAS Kinetic v5 Request for Information (RFI) for C-sUAS Kinetic Hard-Kill Solutions for Group 1-3 Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Introduction: The Point Defense Battle Lab (PDBL) is seeking information from industry to improve USAF understanding of market capabilities and identify qualified vendors to collaborate with who are capable of providing Counter Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-sUAS) integration, development, training, and sustainment services. Responses to this RFI will help identify businesses with C-sUAS technologies and expertise capable of collaborating with the PDBL to carry out its mission to “develop and validate Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures necessary to advance C-sUAS detection, tracking, interception, and neutralization, improving the ability of units to secure Air Force assets, personnel, and continuity of operations.” All interested and qualified businesses (i.e., Small Business, Other than Small) submit your information on the PDBL Vendor Landing Page at the following link. https:// www.grandforks.af.mil/Point-Defense-Battle-Lab/PDBL-Vendor-Landing-Page/ The Government intends to keep this RFI continuously active to maintain open communication with industry and support dynamic market research. Rather than serving as a one-time RFI closure, the Response Date (or expiration date) published on SAM.gov represents the target milestone when PDBL anticipates publishing an updated Plan of Action and Milestones (POAM). Periodic POAM Updates To maintain program alignment, the Government will periodically update this notice with a current POAM. This updated schedule will demonstrate program milestones, acquisition timelines, and prospective windows showing vendor availability to be scheduled for engagement. Submission Windows & Administrative Process Upon publication of each updated POAM, the Government will issue an administrative amendment to this RFI, resetting the SAM.gov Response Date to the next projected update cycle. Industry partners are encouraged to monitor this notice continuously and submit capabilities packages in alignment with the active POAM schedules. Your submission should be organized in accordance with the instructions in this document to permit a thorough and accurate review by the USAF. All interested and qualified businesses (i.e., Small Business, Other than Small) submit your information on the PDBL Vendor Landing Page at the following link. https:// www.grandforks.af.mil/Point-Defense-Battle-Lab/PDBL-Vendor-Landing-Page/ Security: This RFI is unclassified. Do not include any classified information submitted in response to this RFI. Proprietary information should be clearly marked. Disclaimer: THIS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION IS SOLELY FOR INFORMATIONAL AND PLANNING PURPOSES AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION. In accordance with FAR 15.101(c), Requests for Information. The Government does not currently intend to award a contract, but wants to obtain delivery, market, or capabilities information for planning purposes. Responses to RFIs are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of the RFI or otherwise pay for the information requested; and Responses will be treated as information only and not as a proposal. Information received in response to an RFI must be safeguarded adequately from unauthorized disclosure.
