- Description
- The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) has an active program of research in the remote sensing, modeling and scientific analysis of the Earth's atmosphere, oceans, land surfaces, and of space (astronomy). NRL designs, tests, and operates space-based, air-based and surface and subsurface sensors, and develops new remote sensing capabilities and methods of nalyzing data. Current projects include: spectral imaging for the remote sensing of coastal water and of land surfaces; passive polarimetric microwave sensing of the ocean surface (Windsat, AAAPMIR, MIS, and follow-on sensors); passive NUV, VIS NIR and passive microwave sensing of the atmosphere; SAR; bistatic radar and reflectometry; radio, IR and optical astronomy; lidar sensing of the atmospheric boundary layer and water column contents; passive sensing of direct and diffuse near-surface sunlight; and laboratory and field studies of hydrosols, aerosols, foam and bubbles, and fluid flow. NRL performs modeling, field laboratory experiments, calibrates and validates sensors, carries out feasibility studies, designs instruments, experiments and algorithms, and performs simulations and scientific analyses. The contractor shall provide technical and scientific support within the scope of the SOW. Task deliverables will consist of scientific and engineering services, any hardware that is fabricated or purchased under the contract, and documentation and data as defined by the Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) of the base contract. The tasks involve activities both on-site (at NRL) and off-site, and may require extensive travel. Tasks may include: supporting concepts design and feasibility studies; assembly and testing of components or equipment, laboratory, in-field or in-flight (in-air or in-space) calibration, validation and operation of deployed systems, analysis of engineering and scientific data; and the development and use of algorithms for analyzing the data. Facilities will be provided by the Government for field laboratory experiments, and for assembling, testing, calibrating, and using hardware developed or purchased under the contract. The contractor shall perform work assignments and provide all necessary personnel to accomplish the work. Period of performance will be three (3) years. A complete Statement of Work (SOW) will be available as part of the solicitation. It is anticipated that a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) contract will be made as a result of this solicitation. 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. The Government does not intend to use FAR Part 12, Acquisition of Commercial Items. All responsible sources may submit a proposal which shall be considered by the agency. Other business opportunities for NRL are available at our website: http://heron.nrl.navy.mil/contracts/rfplist.htm
