Each Topic constitutes a separate competitive opportunity under this solicitation authority. All eligible Offerors under this solicitation will be permitted to submit one proposal per Topic as the prime. Offerors submitting proposals under more than one topic shall submit a separate, complete proposal for each individual topic.

Overview
The purpose of this solicitation is to acquire technology maturation, risk reduction, and capability demonstration efforts in five technology areas that address lunar and cislunar infrastructure technology gaps. These efforts are intended to generate the knowledge foundation NASA needs to support informed technical and programmatic decisions. The scope of this solicitation is derived from NASA Space Technology’s Civil Space Shortfalls and focuses on near-term mission-relevant lunar and cislunar technology priorities. 

The Government is seeking innovative solutions in the following five technology areas (hereafter referred to as “Topics”): 

• Topic 1: Vertical Solar Array 
• Topic 2: In Situ Resource Utilization (ISRU) Oxygen from Regolith Production System 
• Topic 3: Radioisotope Stirling Generator System 
• Topic 4: In Space Advanced Manufacturing 
• Topic 5: Innovative Nanomaterials Production 

Each Topic constitutes a separate competitive opportunity under this solicitation authority. All eligible Offerors under this solicitation will be permitted to submit one proposal per Topic as the prime. Offerors submitting proposals under more than one topic shall submit a separate, complete proposal for each individual topic. 

These Topics are focused on technology and manufacturing maturation, as well as ground-based demonstration activities, to advance capabilities toward Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) 5–6 and reduce technical, programmatic, integration and operational risk associated with future mission applications. 

Through this acquisition, industry partners will be expected to design, develop and demonstrate prototype systems and generate validated performance data, analytical models, and operational insights through testing and demonstration activities. These efforts should provide evidence necessary to assess system performance and reduce technical, programmatic, integration and operational risks.

NASA anticipates active collaboration with selected Offerors through ongoing Government insight and oversight activities to evaluate technical progress and support achievement of program objectives. Offerors are expected to apply independent scientific and engineering judgment in selecting approaches that best satisfy the objectives and outcomes identified for the Topic(s) to which they are proposing. 

Topic-specific attachments provide additional technical objectives, desired performance outcomes, scope considerations, and reference requirements (see Section 11 Attachments). Offerors are strongly encouraged to review the applicable attachment(s) in their entirety prior to preparing and submitting proposals.

Limiting Language 
For FY 2026, there is a five application limit on the number of Regular/Standard or Collaboration applications that can be submitted by an institution. Per clarification from NIFA, the bridge grant is a subset of the standard/regular grant and thus are also part of the 5 application limit.

Executive Summary
The HSI Education Grants Program, under assistance listing number 10.223, will promote and strengthen the ability HSIs to carry out education, applied research, and related community development programs. This program encourages innovative teaching, education, or related community development proposals with the potential to impact and become models for other institutions at the regional or national level. Applications may propose, as part of a formal education and teaching program, that students gain experience with an applied research and community outreach activity. While HSIs are the only eligible entities to apply for this NOFO, funded projects should benefit the entire population at the institution, not solely the Hispanic population.

Request Ticket // Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 1

Limiting Language
Applicants are only allowed to submit one proposal per organization. If more than one proposal is submitted from an organization, all proposals from that institution will be considered ineligible for funding. Organizations may form a consortium and submit a combined proposal; however, one organization should be designated as the lead applicant and other organization(s) listed as sub-recipient partner(s).

Overview
The Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs (INL) of the U.S. Department of State announce an open competition for organizations to submit applications to carry out a project to develop a software-based weighted, random case-allocation system to prevent selective prosecution of transnational organized crime and money laundering cases. Political interference in the prosecution service remains a barrier to fighting transnational organized crime and achieving other U.S. objectives in Serbia. As requested by the High Prosecutorial Council, the body responsible for oversight of the prosecution service, this grant will reduce political manipulation of prosecutions and improve outcomes in extradition cases and cases involving high-level corruption and transnational criminal organization (TCO) leaders whose activities harm U.S. national security interests through random allocation of cases.

Executive Summary
The Bureau of Emerging Threats (ET) leads the Department of State in anticipating and responding to national security challenges arising from adversary use of new technologies across cyberspace, outer space, critical infrastructure and undersea domains, quantum technologies, and artificial intelligence (AI). ET focuses on protecting U.S. national security in these areas of strategic and technological competition using diplomatic tools and interagency capabilities as part of coordinated foreign policy responses.

Within ET, the Office of Critical Infrastructure Security (ET/CI) is responsible for addressing novel threats and disruptions to critical infrastructure that threaten lives, economic stability, and national power. ET/CI addresses threat vectors targeting major critical infrastructure sectors, including energy systems, communications networks, transportation and logistics, financial systems, healthcare, and water, and works to coordinate “upgrade and secure” efforts with allies and partners, counter attacks against data centers, and protect against cloud security vulnerabilities.

In the Western Hemisphere, adversaries have exploited weak cyber defenses in government networks and critical infrastructure to gain intelligence advantages, potential coercive leverage over sovereign decision-making, and latent access pathways that may extend to U.S. interests. Argentina, under the Milei administration, has signaled that it seeks close alignment with the United States on strategic and economic issues, including a deliberate transition away from untrusted foreign digital infrastructure suppliers in favor of trusted, market-oriented partners.

Persistent and sophisticated cyber threats—including advanced persistent threats (APTs), targeted ransomware, and espionage campaigns—continue to target Argentine ministries and critical infrastructure. Without a mature national-level Security Operations Center (SOC) with clear authorities, mission, charter, and well-trained staff, a country’s ability to detect, analyze, and respond to such threats in a coordinated manner remains limited.
