sources sought/request for information (RFI) related to the Soft-Kill (SK) Active Protection System (APS) system development program. It announces the postponement of Industry Day #1 and all follow-on engagements regarding the SK APS acquisition program until later in fiscal year 2021, with no specific timeframe identified at the moment. The RFI emphasizes that it is for information and planning purposes only, with no contract/agreement to be awarded based on responses. Respondents are instructed to mark any proprietary information clearly and are advised that responses containing proprietary data may receive limited consideration due to restrictions on disclosure.

The RFI outlines the intent to collect data on existing SK APS capabilities, including system developers and subsystem/component technologies, to inform the PdM VPS SK APS acquisition strategy. The document provides details on the anticipated schedule of major events, including the deadline for responses, Industry Day dates, and a tentative request for prototype proposal (RPP) release in July 2021. It also describes the different categories of APS capabilities, focusing specifically on soft-kill EW capabilities in this RFI.

Additionally, it mentions that an Industry Day engagement planned for January 2021 will involve a recorded presentation from PdM VPS APS at the Controlled Unclassified Information level, with instructions for contractors to request access due to export control restrictions.
