TTO Office Wide (OW) BAA 2025
Funds hardware and platform proposals across DARPA's Tactical Technology Office, covering four focus areas from rapid builds to disruptive concepts.
The Pentagon increasingly worries about being out-built, not just out-invented. DARPA's Tactical Technology Office exists to close that gap β turning cutting-edge ideas into hardware that can actually be produced at meaningful scale.
This is TTO's office-wide door, standing open across four named focus areas at once: Design/Build/Buy, Surge and Sustain, Long Range Effects, and Disruptive Innovatiβ¦
Hardware and platform proposals for DARPA's Tactical Technology Office across four standing focus areas β Design/Build/Buy, Surge and Sustain, Long Range Effects, and Disruptive Innovation β favouring designs that manage complexity and can be manufactured responsively and affordably at meaningful scale.
