What innovations are we looking for?

This competition is looking for disruptive innovations that change our approaches to delivering pervasive, resilient Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) and agile effects using Radio Frequencies (RF), supported by Position, Navigation and Timing (PNT) as a Service (PNTaaS), into future Defence & Security Electromagnetic Spectrum (EMS) landscapes.

This competition is comprised of 5 challenges:

• challenge 1- Distributed RF sensing
• challenge 2- Integrated sensing and effects
• challenge 3- Integrated sensing and effects enablers
• challenge 4- PNT as a service
• challenge 5- Novel concepts and architectures for advanced RF sensing and effectors

We welcome proposals from as low as fundamental technical principles or concepts (Technology Readiness Levels 1 or 2) and at the end of the project, outputs should be at Technology Readiness Levels 3 to 6.

Successful proposals will present credible plans for progressing new, advanced technologies which enable pervasive, resilient ISR and agile effects delivery.

Total funding available

The total funding available for Phase 1 of this competition is up to £2.8m and is expected to fund 15-20 proposals.

Submission deadline

Midday on Tuesday 26th April 2022

Where do I submit my proposal?

Via DASA Online Submission Service for which you will require an account. Only proposals submitted through the DASA Online Submission Service will be accepted.
