Accelerate Innovation
With WARCRY.

Inspired by our Airmen serving at the tactical edge, WARCRY accelerates ideas through rapid product development. WARCRY is designed to expedite an Airman’s ingenious concept into fielded capabilities that make a difference.

From an Idea to the Field in Months, not Years.

Spanning development to acquisition, WARCRY breaks down traditional barriers that inhibit Airmen ideas from transitioning into fielded products. Starting with end-user concepts, WARCRY swiftly delivers real-world solutions through world-class product development and delivery. Collaboration between industry, end-users, and government stakeholders ensures innovation happens at the speed of relevancy. Complemented by a simplified acquisition process, an online marketplace enables products to be deployed swiftly.

The goal of WARCRY is clear: accelerate capabilities, dismantle traditional development barriers, and cultivate a culture of innovation that allows Airmen to witness their ideas become reality!

FAQ

  • WARCRY is a program, in collaboration with Tesseract, that expedites Airmen ideas to market through collaboration between Airmen, Tesseract, and Bunker. The objective of WARCRY is to provide a means for AF end-users to develop their ideas/concepts and turn them into functional products available through an online marketplace, where the Air Force can purchase operational solutions. To learn more, please email sales@bunkersupply.us.

  • Bunker (AKA Bunker Supply) is the execution engine behind the custom development of Airmen ideas. With over 15 years of custom product development experience and after bringing 100s of ideas to market, the Bunker team are experts in product development for function, cost, scale, and sustainment.

  • Have an idea with support from your command? Looking for a team of experts to work with you to help commercialize your idea? WARCRY is the program for you! Essentially any innovator within the DoD can have their credible and supported ideas developed, tested, refined, produced and brought to market. Submit your idea now to sales@bunkersupply.us.

  • WARCRY uses a Bunker Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Phase III SBIR award vehicle to enable collaboration between the DoD and Bunker. All forms of funding may be used under this IDIQ. The pricing spreadsheet consists of pre-negotiated pricing for each task, and is tiered into complexity of Small, Medium, and Large. Please reach out to sales@bunkersupply.us to discuss the scope of your project further.

  • Expect a high degree of communication and collaboration with Bunker throughout the project. A number of deliverables will be provided throughout the duration of the project such as a Work Plan Definition (WPD) outlining timing and milestones, a Product Requirements Document (PRD) detailing key functionality, usability, and other important product features, a series of Prototypes accompanied by Test & Evaluation (T&E) Reports, and production-equivalent samples. The final product can then be purchased via Government Purchase Card (GPC or P-Card) or Task Order through an online marketplace. More questions on deliverables and what to expect? Email sales@bunkersupply.us.

  • Traditionally, SBIR topics are developed internally within the DoD and are solicited to industry for proposals. Proposals are submitted from industry, and Phase I winners are selected with the potential to transition to Phase II (and beyond). Normally, the process from idea generation to TRL 5/6 prototype in a Phase II can take up to 3 years (or more)! WARCRY focuses on rapid innovation, where ideas are developed and fielded within months, not years. The competition requirement for WARCRY has already been completed — breaking down acquisition barriers and creating a seamless process from idea input to project kick off.

  • Yes! WARCRY is open for collaboration across all branches and agencies. It is a DoD-wide accessible program.
