- This notice is for market research purposes only and does NOT constitute a request for proposal. This notice shall not be construed as a contract, a promise to contract, or as a commitment of any kind by the Government. The Government is NOT seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals. This SOURCES SOUGHT NOTICE is issued by the Department of Defense (DoD) Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), on behalf of the Program Executive Office (PEO) Integrated Warfare Systems (IWS) 6.0 Command and Control Directorate. This office is conducting market research in accordance with FAR Part 10, to determine if sources possess the requisite capabilities to successfully perform the requirement stated herein. The Naval Sea System Command (NAVSEA) intends to issue a Full and Open Competitive solicitation for the development of Maritime Integrated Air and Missile Defense (IAMD) Planning System (MIPS) Software. The MIPS systems, located in the Maritime Operations Center (MOC), are situated ashore and afloat. MIPS provides IAMD planning and near real-time situational awareness capabilities not found in any other U.S. Navy software suite. These capabilities allow for improved planning for ship placement to achieve improved Air and Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD). MIPS Software must comply with a System Requirements Document (SRD) which includes open architecture standards, OPNAV Instruction 9420.2A requirements, and International Maritime Organization (IMO) regulations. This procurement includes the addition of Air and BMD modeling updates to remain current with Aegis capabilities including, but not limited to, BMD Engage on Remote (EOR) functionality. Additionally, effort includes software updates to the MIPS suite, continued maintenance of existing modeling, interface development updates, system sustainment, maintenance, information assurance, and obsolescence of the overall MIPS software suite. Software documentation will be prepared and delivered in support of the software. The Technical Data Package (TDP) shall be managed by the Contractor in a manner that incorporates all impacts to the baseline made from all concurrent efforts (development, maintenance and sustainment) in an efficient and integrated manner. Program and design reviews, and a configuration management process will be required. The proposed North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) code is 541512. At this time, the Government intends to conduct a full and open competition, or possibly set aside the procurement for small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses or eligible socially and economically disadvantaged businesses that are certified by the SBA for participation in the SBA's 8(a) Program, if responses from this request for information indicate that it is in the Government's best interest to do so.
