REQUEST FOR WHITE PAPER ORGANIC PRECISION FIRES - MEDIUM (OPF-M) SYSTEM

The United States Marine Corps is issuing a Request for White Paper (RFW M67854‑26‑I‑1047) to gather market information on Organic Precision Fires – Medium (OPF‑M) loitering‑munition systems. Respondents must submit a 15‑page white paper that details their baseline system—including air vehicle, launcher, ground control station, transport, datalink, encryption, anti‑jamming, GPS‑denied/contested navigation, EO/IR sensors, payload options, explosive weight, endurance, ESA‑D, battery, and set‑up/launch times—and demonstrate how the solution meets or exceeds the Baseline System Capabilities (BSC). Required content also includes company identification (name, address, UEI/DUNS, CAGE, NAICS), small‑business status and subcontracting goals, historic production quantities, lead time to deliver 50 All‑Up‑Rounds, 10 GCS kits, and 10 ancillary test kits, and quantitative data on TRL, MRL, supply‑chain partners, and prior test‑evaluation results. The white paper must address the Government’s Capability Growth Areas: (1) expanded payloads for maritime, drone, personnel, and electromagnetic effects; (2) navigation and operation in GPS‑contested environments (M‑Code, APNT, vision‑based); (3) advanced target identification via digital communications and automatic target recognition; and (4) communication resiliency against RF interference. The Marine Corps anticipates a prototype Other‑Than‑Full‑Rate‑Award (OTA) solicitation in FY26 Q4, with prototype awards in FY27 and potential production awards beginning FY28 after verification of a minimum viable product. The RFW is strictly market research; no contract award, payment, or solicitation is implied, and classified information will not be accepted.
