Summary
The Request for Information (RFI) Special Notice for Quantum Timing Technology, issued by the Washington Headquarters Services Acquisition Directorate, seeks to identify and evaluate quantum timing technologies specifically designed for defense applications. This initiative is part of a trilateral test under the AUKUS partnership, aiming to integrate advanced quantum timing solutions into military platforms. Contractors with expertise in quantum technology, particularly those capable of providing prototype devices that meet specific technical specifications and are at a Technology Readiness Level of 4 or above, are encouraged to respond. The selected technologies will undergo environmental testing to assess their performance under various conditions, with the goal of enhancing the United States' national security capabilities in quantum-enhanced Position, Navigation, and Timing (PNT).
