APEX Arsenal Solutions Marketplace

The Department of War (DoW) Office of Industrial Base Growth (IBG) in conjunction with its marketplace
manager, the Applied Research Institute (ARI), and supported by the Washington Headquarters Services
Acquisition Directorate (WHS/AD), is initiating this long-term, open call for solutions to support the
DoW in advancing the development, demonstration, scaling, testing, procurement, production, fielding, and
sustainment of hardware, software, systems, subsystems, components, materials, manufacturing capabilities,
workforce development, and service solutions that strengthen the defense industrial base and deliver critical
capabilities to the Warfighter. Specifically, the IBG seeks to obtain solutions or potential capabilities that fulfill
requirements, close capability gaps, or provide potential technological advancements. This initiative, entitled
the “APEX Arsenal Solutions Marketplace (AASM)” will solicit, collect, assess, and curate solutions supporting
critical production and sustainment, commercialization and scaling of emerging technologies, domestic
workforce development, critical materials and components, weapon and space systems, and broader
industrial base readiness, and make those solutions available for procurement through rapid acquisition
pathways.
