FY25 Long Range Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for Navy and Marine Corps Science and Technology

US · DC Office of Naval Research (ONR) grant open #N0001425SB001
Response due Sep 30, 2026 · 00:00 UTC

Summary

The Office of Naval Research (ONR) is soliciting research and development proposals across a broad range of science and technology areas in support of the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. This is a Long Range BAA covering the full FY2025–FY2026 period, meaning proposals may be submitted on a rolling basis throughout the open window. The announcement is intended to attract innovative basic and applied research from academia, industry, and other research organizations. No single specific topic is prescribed — the BAA is open to a wide spectrum of S&T areas relevant to naval missions.

What they want

Offerors are invited to submit white papers and/or full proposals for scientific research and technology development relevant to Navy and Marine Corps requirements. The BAA covers basic research, applied research, and advanced technology development. Topics span the full range of naval science and technology interests as defined by ONR program officers. Submissions are accepted on a rolling basis from the open date through the close date.
Technical requirements
  • Proposals must address science and technology areas relevant to Navy and Marine Corps missions
  • Submissions accepted on a rolling basis from 10/01/2024 through 09/30/2026
  • Both white papers and full proposals are typically accepted under ONR BAA structure

How they evaluate

  • Scientific and technical merit
  • Relevance to ONR / Navy and Marine Corps S&T priorities
  • Qualifications and capabilities of the proposed team
  • Reasonableness and realism of cost
Submission: Grants.gov federal portal (rolling submissions of white papers and/or full proposals)

Risks & flags

  • No specific red flags identified — BAA format is inherently open and competitive by design
  • Rolling 2-year window is standard for long-range ONR BAAs but may disadvantage offerors unfamiliar with ONR program officer engagement practices
