    Brief

    This procurement seeks a design and integration partner to continue supporting the Tactical Networks (TacNet) Dismounted Data System (DDS), a tactical communications and situational awareness platform. The DDS combines software and hardware development with sensor and effector integration to enhance the operational capabilities of the 4th Light Brigade Combat Team (4LBCT). The selected contractor will support continuous spiral development and scaling of this capability across all Light Force Brigades, with the objective of significantly increasing brigade lethality by decade's end. Prospective partners should have expertise in tactical communications systems, sensor integration, software development, and experience working with military organizations on field-deployable systems.
