Place of Performance:
The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Microsystems Technology Office (MTO) seeks information on domestically manufactured products and processes applicable to, but not yet utilized in, microsystems. DARPA is interested in identifying an untapped microsystem lifecycle for American-made products within its industrial base.
The goals of this Request for Information (RFI) include, but are not limited to:
• Assess the breadth of existing U.S. manufacturing capabilities that could be leveraged or redirected to support microsystems production and repair
• Explore nontraditional pathways for enabling microscale manufacturing, including through repurposing, retrofitting, or adaptation of existing technologies and products
• Inform future investment and policy decisions by identifying infrastructure, expertise, or equipment at risk of being lost, or currently underutilized
• Strengthen national resilience by uncovering overlooked resources that could reduce reliance on external supply chains and prevent technological strategic surprise
Responses to this RFI will be used to assess the feasibility of leveraging existing U.S. manufacturing capabilities for microsystems production and to inform future investment, policy, and programmatic decisions in this domain.
