About this file

This file is a continuation of industry Q&A responses related to an RFI for a Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) titled "Tactical Oceanography Supporting Full-Spectrum Undersea Warfare."

The document addresses three specific industry questions. Question 16 clarifies that this is a new contract with no incumbent contractor. Questions 17 and 18 confirm NUWC's interest in prototype projects that extend beyond traditional sensor performance and data exploitation to include experimentation on deployment concepts, survivability, activation timing, and recovery of undersea devices. The government affirms that concepts involving long-duration, dormant undersea systems capable of command-activated deployment—including upward-moving or surfacing payloads—are responsive to the TACO (Tactical Oceanography) objectives outlined in the CSO.
