The Department of Defense (DoD) Office of Strategic Capital (OSC) is seeking innovative commercial solutions to support its mission of attracting and scaling private capital to technologies critical to national security. The Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) is a competitive selection process that consists of two phases: White Paper submission and Proposal submission. The CSO is open for a term of ten years, and Areas of Interest (AoIs) may be posted at any time during this term. Companies can submit White Papers in response to an AoI, and the Government will evaluate these submissions based on relevance, merit, and feasibility. Selected companies may be invited to submit a full proposal, which will be evaluated based on the evaluation criteria specified in the Request for Proposal (RFP) or Request for Prototype Proposal (RPP). The Government may award contracts or agreements to successful companies, which may include commercial firm-fixed-price contracts or prototype other transaction agreements. • The CSO is a competitive selection process that consists of two phases: White Paper submission and Proposal submission. • The CSO is open for a term of ten years, and Areas of Interest (AoIs) may be posted at any time during this term. • Companies can submit White Papers in response to an AoI, and the Government will evaluate these submissions based on relevance, merit, and feasibility. • Selected companies may be invited to submit a full proposal, which will be evaluated based on the evaluation criteria specified in the RFP or RPP. • The Government may award contracts or agreements to successful companies, which may include commercial firm-fixed-price contracts or prototype other transaction agreements.
