- Description
- The Naval Research Laboratory has a requirement for Remote Sensing - Scientific and Engineering Research and Development Support Services. Vision statement: Provide world class engineering and operational support services for space, air, and surface based remote sensor systems used to model and perform scientific analysis of the Earth's ocean and land interface with the atmosphere and improve worldwide weather prediction capabilities. Specifically, the Contractor shall provide scientific and engineering R&D services to support the Remote Sensing Division's formulation, design, development, fabrication, integration, testing, verification, operation, and data analysis of laboratory, field and spaceflight and ground system hardware and software, including the development and validation of technologies to enable future science missions. Tasks range from supporting mission concept design and feasibility analyses through to the laboratory, in-field or flight (including on-orbit operation) of deployed systems, the analysis of engineering data obtained from them, and the development and operation of algorithms for analyzing data. The requirement includes providing on/off-site multi-disciplinary scientific, engineering and management services to support the development, implementation and use of components, subsystems, systems, and scientific instruments for NRL laboratory and "field experiments". Field experiments may include ground-based experiments, in-water experiments, experiments on spacecraft, and experiments on suborbital craft such as UAVs, balloons, and aircraft. Hardware to be developed may include instruments, Ground Support Equipment (GSE), simulators, non-flight models and prototypes. The solicitation and a detailed statement of work, specifications and other supporting information including contract data requirements will be posted approximately 15 days from the posting of this notice. Based on a survey of the market, the government has determined that the services to be acquired do not meet the definition of a commercial item. Therefore, the government does not intend to use the procedures as outlined in FAR Part 12 for this acquisition. It is anticipated that an Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) with an ordering period of three years contract will be awarded as a result of the solicitation. The current contract, N00173-08-C-2056, was awarded to Praxis, Inc. NRL uses Electronic Commerce (EC) to issue Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and amendments to RFPs. Paper copies of the RFP will not be provided. The actual closing date for proposals will be stated in the solicitation when issued. This solicitation is issued as a 100% small business set-aside. All responsible sources may submit a bid, proposal, or quotation, which shall be considered by the agency. Other business opportunities for NRL are available at our website: http://heron.nrl.navy.mil/rfplist.htm.
