Opportunity description
1.0 Overview The U.S. Army Contracting Command (ACC), on behalf of Portfolio Acquisition Executive (PAE) Maneuver Ground, Project Manager Maneuver Medical Systems (PM M2S), is issuing this Request for Prototype Proposals (RPP) to solicit prototype project proposals for a modernized Anesthesia Workstation System (AWS). This RPP is issued pursuant to the Other Transaction Authority (OTA) under 10 U.S.C. � 4022. This is a DIRECT OTA and is NOT a solicitation for a procurement contract under the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). Consortium membership is not required to respond to this RPP. 2.0 Mission Need & Scope The U.S. Army requires a Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) or Non-Developmental Item (NDI) anesthesia workstation system capable of supporting life-saving medical operations in austere environments at Role of Care (ROC) 3 with little to no modification. The system must overcome the capability gaps of legacy systems, specifically regarding interoperability with Army Oxygen Generation Systems, heavy logistical footprint (weight), and proprietary maintenance constraints. The Government intends to award one (1) OT Agreement for the delivery of two (2) prototype units. These units will undergo rigorous operational testing by the Medical Test and Evaluation Activity (MTEAC) and environmental testing conducted in accordance with MIL-STD-810H. Proposed solutions must be FDA-cleared for human use and Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant. A high priority for this effort is organic supportability. The Government strongly prefers systems designed to be maintainable by military Biomedical Equipment Technicians (BMETs) at the Field and Depot levels without reliance on proprietary vendor service contracts. 3.0 Follow-On Production Authority In accordance with 10 U.S.C. � 4022(f), this OT Agreement is issued with a provision for follow-on production. Upon successful prototype completion and validation, the Government may award a follow-on production contract or OT Agreement for approximately one hundred and eighty (180) AWS units without further competitive procedures. 4.0 Proposal Submission Instructions All proposal instructions, technical specifications (CODS and APAs), and evaluation criteria are detailed in the attached Request for Prototype Proposals (RPP) document. Questions: All questions must be submitted in writing via email to the Agreements Officer and Agreements Specialist no later than 15:00 ET on 17 September 2026. Proposals: Proposals must be submitted via DoD SAFE file transfer or secure email no later than 16:00 ET on 01 October 2026.

GOVBIDFIT SCREENING LENS
What deserves attention before you spend bid time
These screening signals are generated from the public notice fields stored for this specific opportunity. They are not eligibility findings or predictions; they are prompts for a faster, more disciplined review of the official solicitation.
This record is in a solicitation stage, so submission instructions, evaluation factors, attachments and amendments should be reviewed before a bid/no-bid decision.
The stored response date leaves more than ten days, but amendments and pre-response milestones can shorten the usable preparation window.
The current feed does not show a program-specific set-aside restriction. That does not remove other eligibility, responsibility, registration or solicitation-specific requirements.
NAICS 334510 · PSC 6515 is the recorded classification. Use it as a screening clue, then compare the actual scope and deliverables rather than treating the code alone as proof of fit.
GovBidFit has stored substantive notice text for this record, but attachments, clauses, amendments and Q&A can still contain requirements that are not visible in the description alone.
The source data includes 2 public contracting contacts. Use the solicitation's stated communication rules and deadlines before contacting the buyer.

What this opportunity record tells you
SAM.gov identifies this as a solicitation from DEPT OF DEFENSE. The record was posted on September 8, 2026 and currently lists October 8, 2026 as the response deadline. GovBidFit keeps source facts separate from its matching guidance so you can see what comes from the federal notice.
The listed product or service classification is NAICS 334510 · PSC 6515. The set-aside field is Unrestricted. These fields help narrow your search, but they do not replace the full solicitation, amendments, attachments, clauses or eligibility language on the official source.
Before deciding to bid
GovBidFit is independent and is not a U.S. government website. GovBidFit stores a structured mirror of SAM.gov public opportunity data in its own database and keeps the compact snapshot as a fallback. The official SAM.gov notice remains the controlling source. The official SAM.gov notice controls if anything here differs from the source or a later amendment.
