ERIS Shopping Notice - Thermal Management RFP
DARPA's Defense Sciences Office (DSO) is actively shopping the ERIS Marketplace for game-changing, foundational thermal-management mechanisms rather than modular, integrated cooling packages. The effort targets technologies that can disrupt legacy thermodynamic limits across Department of Defense application spaces, including hypersonic vehicles and directed-energy weapons. Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis under DARPA-PS-25-05, and the active Special Notice closes September 30, 2026 at 11:59 p.m. EDT; it is a contract opportunity rather than a grant.

ERIS Shopping Notice: Distributed Decentralized Control & Estimation
DARPA IPTO will actively “shop” the ERIS Marketplace for innovative, post-competitive, awardable solutions. The notice seeks modeling, simulation, and software-defined technical approaches supporting decentralized, distributed, and horizontally integrated command and control for heterogeneous combat agents, including sensing grids, unmanned aircraft systems, satellite constellations, collaborative aircraft, and ground or surface capabilities. SAM.gov classifies it as an active Special Notice rather than a grant, with responses due July 31, 2027 at 11:59 PM EDT.
