In support of the AFRL Information and Spectrum Dominance Directorate (AFRL/RF), the objective of the ADEPT effort is to develop pre-emptive or reactive countermeasure solutions —including expendable, directed energy, and novel developmental solutions in the EO spectrum—to protect U.S. aircraft and aircrew in contested environments.
The ADEPT program is divided into two separate technical areas:
Hardware & Executable Analysis of Threats (HEAT)
Advanced Countermeasure Engineering (ACE)
The ADEPT program is divided into two technical areas: Hardware & Executable Analysis of Threats (HEAT), focusing on threat hardware and software exploitation to generate foundational understanding of foreign EO-guided threats and produce high-fidelity modeling inputs; and Advanced Countermeasure Engineering (ACE), focusing on providing continuous scientific and engineering support to characterize emergent threats, execute laboratory and open-air testing, and iteratively develop digital threat models. An overarching task is countermeasure design, requiring collaboration between all technical areas. The contractor shall conduct experimentation, evaluation, and assessment; deliver data, software, and hardware; and participate in flight test and evaluation. The period of performance is 84 months overall (81 months technical plus 3 months for final reporting).

One prequalification covers both — on this bid and the next.
A surety’s written statement that it expects to bond you up to a stated amount, subject to final underwriting. It’s what an agency asks to see before they take your bid seriously.
