Army Reprogramming Analysis Team (ARAT) Research & Development Effort ACCAPG_ARAT_2026
Summary
AI-generated · Jan 28, 2026Provide engineering support and R&D for ARAT under the Army’s CECOM ASIC, including strategic technical planning, system engineering and planning, system analysis and integration, resource determination for return on investment, contingency/mission support, program oversight, and analysis of emerging technologies. In addition, deliver Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) R&D support: EW Test Modernization to upgrade laboratory infrastructure for developing and testing Mission Software Products (MSP); EW Requirements Optimization to accelerate MSP requirement development and testing; and enhancements to a software portal that distributes MSPs and threat modeling/simulation products to soldiers and joint service reprogramming centers.
This effort is needed because there is insufficient Government staff at the specified locations to perform the projected R&D activities over the period of performance.
The requirement is for the US ARMY Communication Electronics Command (CECOM) Army Software & Innovation Center (ASIC) Army Reprogramming and Analysis Team (ARAT) engineering support and ARAT Electromagnetic Warfare research and development. ARAT Research and Development engineering support includes strategic technical planning, system engineering and planning, system analysis and integration, strategic planning, resource determination to ensure reasonable return on investment, contingency and mission support, program oversight, and analysis of emerging technologies. ARAT Electromagnetic Warfare R&D support includes Electromagnetic Warfare Test Modernization tasks, needed to enhance laboratory infrastructure to develop and test Mission Software Products (MSP); EW Requirements Optimization tasks to more rapidly develop MSP requirements for development and test; and enhancements to a software portal to distribute MSP and threat modeling and simulation products to soldiers and joint service reprogramming centers. The Government requires this support due to having both insufficient Government staff and insufficient Government staff available at the specified locations to perform projected research and development efforts over the projected period of performance.
