1. BACKGROUND

The Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) China Lake, California is the Department of the Navy’s Center of Excellence for Weapons and Armament. The mission of NAWCWD is to provide the Armed Forces with effective and affordable integrated warfare systems and life-cycle support to ensure battle space dominance. NAWCWD operates the Navy’s largest Western Land and Sea Range Test and Evaluation Complex which is used to verify and validate proof of concepts to operationally fielded capabilities by applying new technologies and performing Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E), including logistics and in-service support for guided missiles, free-fall weapons, targets, crew systems, and electronic warfare systems.

Meeting the mission of RDT&E and operational readiness for today’s Navy requires the need for engineering support services to provide concurrent engineering and subject matter expertise across many different weapons systems. ESS offers the Government an infrastructure that fosters a unified collaborative approach for integrating engineering and management specialists across traditionally segregated phases of the acquisition life cycle – starting with concept refinement, encompassing new technologies in current or existing systems, development, demonstration, production, fielded deployment, and sustainment of weapons systems.
