Kronos Family of Systems Commercial Solutions Opening

The Space Systems Command’s Kronos Program Office is issuing a competitive Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) under DFARS 206.102‑70(a) to acquire commercial, prototype‑level innovations that close capability gaps and advance mission‑critical technology. Offerors must submit a Phase IA PowerPoint and white‑paper package that demonstrates alignment with the listed Areas of Interest (AOIs)—including AOI 01 for end‑to‑end operational command and control—technical validity, and a clear milestone plan. Submissions are evaluated on government interest, technical merit, security posture (compliance with applicable cybersecurity frameworks), and vendor viability; awards will be made primarily using Other Transaction Authority (OTA) and are not competitive against other vendors within the same AOI. If selected, offerors may be invited to a Phase IB pitch (optional) and subsequently to submit a Phase II proposal containing a detailed Technical Approach, a stand‑alone Statement of Work (SOW) with objective, scope, tasks, and milestones, pricing, and any vendor investment. Required deliverables include a cover sheet with CSO/AOI identifiers, company information, CAGE/UEI, size classification, socioeconomic status, point of contact, and facility clearance level. Proposals must also address cybersecurity compliance, risk management, and, when applicable, a Small Business Subcontracting Plan per FAR/DFARS requirements.
