Description

The United States Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) is conducting market research to identify sources capable of delivering a modular, platform‑agnostic Unmanned Systems (UxS) controller. This controller must provide a common operator interface and open, extensible software architecture to command and control unmanned air, ground, surface, and subsurface assets. The solution should integrate vehicle management, payload control, mission planning, execution, communications, data dissemination, and decision‑support while ensuring interoperability with both legacy and emerging systems. • Modular, COTS‑based controller supporting all UxS domains (air, ground, surface, subsurface) • Open, extensible software architecture with a common operator UI • Integration of vehicle management, payload control, mission planning/execution, communications, and data dissemination • Must be compatible with legacy and future unmanned platforms; CUI handling required for attachment access

Budget estimate

$1,000,000 – $5,000,000

While the solicitation is only a market research RFI with no award amount disclosed, a full‑scale development and integration contract for a modular UxS controller for the Air Force would likely be a multi‑year, multi‑million‑dollar effort. Based on comparable unmanned‑systems software integration programs, an estimate ranging from $1 million to $5 million is reasonable, depending on scope, required certifications, and integration depth.
