- Description
- The Naval Undersea Warfare Center, Division Newport, RI (NUWCDIVNPT) intends to award on a Sole Source basis, a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF), Indefinite Delivery, Indefinite Quantity contract to PROGENY SYSTEMS CORPORATION, CAGE Code 04JN4, Manassas, VA 20110-2210, for the continued development, upgrade, and application of the Data Analysis Reporting Tool Set (DARTS) on all United States Navy's Submarines currently deployed. This includes the SSN-688 class, SSN-21 Class, SSN 774 Class and the Ohio Replacement Class Submarines. The contractor shall upgrade the Data Analysis Reporting Tool Set (DARTS) technology to provide a means to collect and analyze Submarine Non Propulsion Electronic System (NPES) data for test and evaluation (T&E) reporting purposes. This includes developing and maintaining various DARTS hardware and software variants for each class of US Submarines. The contractor shall utilize the DARTS to provide Subsystem test, evaluation, integration, engineering, technical, and DARTS support services to NUWC and other Navy activities and organizations to perform required system level testing to government approved test procedures, software and hardware testing, systems engineering, integration, installation, and certification of Submarine combat system related electronics during new construction and at the Command and Control Module Off-Hull Assembly and Test Site (COATS). Progeny Systems owns, and has full rights and title to the data that was developed under SBIR contract N66604-11-D-0978 awarded on 30 Sept 2011. The Government will attain data rights in said data after a period of not less than 5 years from completion (last date of delivery) of that contract. The Government may not release the source code or other relevant data to competitors without the permission of Progeny Systems. Progeny will not release the source code. This fact prohibits other vendors from being able to perform any DARTS related upgrade efforts without starting over which is cost prohibitive. This acquisition is a follow-on to N66604-11-D-0978 with Progeny Systems and it is anticipated that 308,053 manhours will be required over the five-year period of performance. The NAICS Code is 541712 and the size standard is 500 employees. The notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. All responsible sources may submit a capability statement which will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed acquisition based on responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. Further details will be released upon issue of RFP# N66604-14-R-2396, which is anticipated to be on or about 07 July 2014. Information should be submitted via email to the following point of contact: Nick Sanginario at Nicholas.sanginario@navy.mil.
