ARM Announces New Technology Project Call

Concept papers are due on January 15, 2020

December 2019 –ARM has been chosen to facilitate and manage a NEW technology project call for the Department of Defense, focused on Sustainment. The call and supporting documents are now available for download here.

In November, members of the DoD sustainment community attended the ARM Member Meeting to better understand ARM, and the strong engagement of our Members convinced them to proceed with the project call.

This is in addition to project calls already planned for 2020.

This call will follow the typical ARM technology project guidelines for project length/amount, teaming, priming, and submission. Cost share requirements will be at minimum of 1:1; higher cost share will be looked upon favorably. This project call will utilize a quick two-step down-select process. The final selections are anticipated to be made in late February.
