Opportunity Information: Apply for HQ003422NFOEASD06
Commercial Technologies for Maintenance Activities V (CTMA V) is a Department of Defense opportunity run through the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) and administered by Washington Headquarters Services. The program is aimed at pushing forward practical, commercially relevant technologies that improve maintenance and sustainment across a wide range of defense and related platforms. In plain terms, the government is looking for ideas and solutions that can reduce downtime, improve readiness, and make it easier and more cost-effective to keep complex systems running over their full life cycles. The scope is broad and includes ships and submarines, aircraft, ground vehicles, non-traditional weapons systems, and other warfighter support systems, which suggests the program is interested in technologies that can transfer across domains rather than being limited to a single niche platform.
The activity sits in the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category and will be funded using a cooperative agreement. A cooperative agreement typically implies that, if selected, the awardee should expect more active government involvement than in a standard grant, often including collaboration, technical direction, and coordination to support technology maturation and eventual insertion into real maintenance environments. The stated mission also makes clear that this is not only about research for research's sake; it emphasizes technology development and insertion, meaning the DoD is looking for credible paths to implementation and operational use, not just concept papers or early laboratory demonstrations.
This specific posting covers stage one of a multi-stage application process, so applicants should treat it as an initial screening or entry step rather than the full and final submission. The notice directs interested parties to the NFO (Notice of Funding Opportunity) for the detailed rules, required content, evaluation criteria, and what is expected in later stages. In many staged processes, the first stage focuses on assessing basic fit, technical merit at a high level, and the proposer’s capability, with invitations to submit more detailed proposals coming later for the most promising submissions.
Key administrative details from the opportunity listing include the opportunity number HQ003422NFOEASD06 and CFDA number 12.225. It is categorized as discretionary funding, meaning awards are competitive and based on merit and program priorities rather than entitlement. Eligibility is listed as "Others," with the instruction to consult the additional eligibility text in the full announcement for specifics, which commonly means eligibility may include a mix of entities such as commercial firms, nonprofits, academic institutions, consortia, or other organizations depending on the program rules.
On funding scale, the listing shows a very high award ceiling of $10,000,000,000 and an expectation of about three awards. Listings with extremely high ceilings sometimes reflect a maximum potential program value across multiple years, options, or a broad contracting/grant framework rather than what any single awardee will realistically receive, so the NFO is the place to verify likely award sizes, periods of performance, and whether the ceiling is program-wide. The notice was created on July 24, 2023, with an original closing date of August 25, 2023, indicating the initial submission window for stage one.Apply for HQ003422NFOEASD06
