Specifically, DARPA seeks to obtain solutions or capabilities that deliver breakthrough technological advancements that are new as of the date of submission; or technologies, processes, research or methods that represent a new application as of the date of submission.
This initiative, entitled the “Expedited Research Implementation Series” will solicit, collect, assess, and curate the most disruptive, revolutionary solutions, and make those solutions available through rapid acquisition pathways. ERIS is a digital environment of post-competition video pitches.
The video solutions housed within the marketplace have been assessed through competitive procedures that exceed the competition requirements of 10 USC 4021, 10 USC 4022 and 10 USC 4023 and thus are readily available to be viewed, selected, negotiated, and awarded by DoD activities via the appropriate Other Transaction Authority.
ERIS provides a venue for Government organizations to search, view, review, compare, contrast, contact, negotiate, and procure breakthrough technologies and capabilities through rapid acquisition pathways. For industry, academia, and individual developers, ERIS is a valuable tool to promote revolutionary technologies, capabilities, and research to DARPA in an environment with a rapid acquisition, Other Transaction based, pathway.
