1.0 SCOPE

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the effort required for the design, engineering, fabrication, and test of prototype components and systems for Department of Defense (DoD) vehicles and mobility platforms such as Ground Mobility Vehicle (GMV), Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP), Light All-Terrain Vehicle (LTATV), Joint Light Tactical Vehicle (JLTV), Non Standard Commercial Vehicle (NSCV), trailers, auxiliary power systems, and any system that contributes to operational safety, lethality, mobility, availability, overall mobility range and effectiveness of the warfighter. The scope of this effort shall include concept and detailed design prototyping for form, fit, and function verification, and validation of determined requirements and performance parameters defined by each individual Delivery Order (DO) issued under this contract. Each DO will require the delivery of a final prototype and/or test report to meet the Statement of Objectives (SOO) requirements. Individual DO requirement scope will range from integration prototypes, engineering development models (EDM), and low rate initial production (LRIP). System prototypes, EDMs, and LRIPs shall be designed, engineered, fabricated, and tested to satisfy the individual Delivery Order Statements Of Objectives (SOO) requirements. It is not expected that all Delivery Orders will require the end-to-end development described in the contract level SOW due to variations in product maturity and required timelines for development at the Delivery Order level. Section 3.0 of this Statement of Work describes the technical requirements that may be required to complete for each individual Delivery Order. Not every technical task listed under paragraph 3.0 will be required for completion of each Delivery Order, but a combination of these tasks will be required to be performed to ensure individual DO requirements are met. Each individual DO shall provide technical requirements and Key Performance Parameters (KPPs) of the prototype to be developed along with development schedule, test requirements, and Contract Deliverables (CDRLs). Delivery Orders where end items are intended for combat evaluations or quick reaction capability may have abbreviated testing and schedule requirements. For all Delivery Orders, final product acceptance and final service report evaluation will be conducted by the Government Requiring Technical Activity (RTA). Paragraph 1.2 describes the Technical Areas for the types of Delivery Orders awarded on this contract. The Technical Areas are all Mobility focused tasking, but are separated to align specific technical categories of tasking to facilitate bringing industry expertise to complete each Delivery Order. This is a Multi-Award Contract where interested vendors shall propose on any or all Technical Areas by providing historical documentation and current capabilities for each individual Technical Area proposed against for evaluation by NSWC Mobility Systems Engineering Branch Technical Evaluation team for contract award. Interested Vendor proposals shall determine award in any or all Technical Areas. Individual Delivery Order SOO shall be sent to specific technical area awardees for proposal. Technical Area vendors shall submit a statement of work that includes technical plan, tasks, cost, and schedule to accomplish the requirements of the DO SOO. Delivery Order proposals shall be evaluated by DO Technical Evaluation Team and NSWC Contracting for award.
