Description

The Army Contracting Command Rock Island (ACC-RI), on behalf of the Product Manager (PdM) for the Army Contract Writing System (ACWS), is seeking feedback from industry on capabilities to sustain, modernize, and integrate contract writing and administration solutions. These solutions will support the Army's acquisition community by automating the contracting lifecycle, modernizing legacy systems, and integrating intelligent automation. The Government is interested in solutions from all sources, including commercial, government, traditional, and non-traditional defense contractors. We are specifically seeking innovative approaches to implement Secure Environments (IL-5/IL-6), merge Virtual Contracting Enterprise (VCE) capabilities, and proactively integrate Agentic AI and machine learning. While the current ACWS utilizes an Appian foundation, the Government is taking a platform-agnostic approach and encourages solutions that optimize performance and prevent vendor lock-in, whether leveraging the existing platform or proposing an alternative architecture. The input received from this draft phase will be used to inform the evaluation criteria, technical requirements, and acquisition strategy for the Final Call for Solutions. This posting is intended to advertise the Army s intent to solicit under the Army s Open Solicitation (AOS) Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) via a Draft Call for Solutions. This is solely for market research and planning purposes; no proposals or formal Solution Briefs are being requested at this time. Interested parties are directed to review the attached Draft CFS document for complete details on the program requirements. Industry Day and Submission of Questions: The Government will host a virtual Industry Day regarding this requirement on Thursday July 23, 2026 at 1000 CST / 1100 EST. To streamline the collection of feedback, the registration form for this event includes a section for submitting initial questions about the Draft CFS. To RSVP and Submit Questions: Interested vendors must use the following link: https://forms.osi.apps.mil/r/xq9F9m64kX Deadline: Registration and submission of initial questions must be completed no later than 1000 CST / 1100 EST, Monday July 20, 2026. Meeting credentials and the final agenda will only be provided to registered attendees. The Government intends to address submitted questions during the Industry Day.
