- Description
- The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) intends to award a sole source small purchase order under the simplified acquisition procedures on the basis of Other than Full and Open Competition IAW 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1). NRL will negotiate with Electro Optical Services Inc, 8704 Side Saddle Road, Springfield, VA 22152 to provide expert consulting services on electro-optical and infrared (EO/IR) technologies, components and systems in support of programs in Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), Infrared CounterMeasures (IRCM), Fiber Optics, and Microwave Photonics. The areas of technical investigation will: A)emphasize optimum exploitation of the spectral bands from ultraviolet through the infrared; B) examine alternative approaches using technologies such as fiber optics for sensing acoustic, radio frequency, magnetic and electric fields; C) investigate the use of optical technology for materials development, information processing, and communications; D) investigate optical technologies and devices for applications in reconnaissance, surveillance, targeting, intelligence collection, communications and electronic warfare; E) assess the state of the art in sensor technologies used in military applications through review of current technical literature in optics; F) identify devices, components, and techniques which could be used for improving the performance capabilities of EO/IR Electronic Warfare systems; G) assess potential tradeoffs using alternative systems or subsystems in the design of new EO/IR systems for Electronic Warefare to reduce cost, improve performance, improve system power efficiency, reduce size or reduce weight; H)provide a relative assessment of the use of VIS/EO/IR systems versus these alternative technical approaches; and I) provide a recommendation for which alternative systems should be pursued. The contractor may be required to develop program plans for the introduction of those technologies having the greatest benefit to the systems under consideration. Vendors who feel capable of providing the services stated above shall fully identify their interests and submit written data or other verifiable documentation that demonstrates conclusively the capabilities of their proposed services to meet the stated requirements within 15 days after publication of this synopsis. Responses received after 15 days or without the required documentation will be determined non-responsive to the synopsis, and will not be considered. NRL uses Electronic Commerce (EC) to issue Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and amendments to RFPs. Paper copies of the RFP will not be provided. All responsible sources believing to be capable of completing the requirements stated are welcome to submit capability statements.
