The US Department of Defense is partnering with industry and academia on an initiative to advance the state of the art in advanced ruggedized sensors and computational analysis tools to diagnose material, component, and system failures operating in extreme environments. The overall goal is to pilot a new approach to collecting and analyzing data to determine failure points on a specific legacy combat vehicle, as well as validating, verifying, and developing potential technologies that can maximize system availability, performance, and reliability.

Special emphasis will be placed on finding common tools and approaches to assess failure points and accelerate development cycles for solutions that can reduce costs and maintenance and sustainment activities. The selected industry team must have expertise in edge computing, telematics, smart sensors and enhanced cognition AI.

If you feel your organization has the technical capabilities and would like to be considered for this project, please complete the form below and upload your organization’s technical capabilities statement.

Interested Submissions Due by 8/20/25.

We encourage participation of Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBEs), including Minority Business Enterprises (MBEs) and Women’s Business Enterprises (WBEs).
