STATEMENT OF WORK

1.0 SCOPE

This Statement of Work (SOW) defines the effort required for the design, development, engineering, fabrication, and test of prototype components and systems for Department of Defense (DoD) vehicles and mobility platforms such as: Ground Mobility Vehicle, Mine Resistant Ambush Protected, Lightweight Tactical All-Terrain Vehicle, Joint Light Tactical Vehicle, Non-Standard Commercial Vehicle, trailers, auxiliary power systems, autonomous operation and testing, and any system that contributes to operational safety, logistics, maintenance, lethality, mobility, reliability, durability, availability, overall mobility range, suitability and effectiveness of the warfighter. The scope of this effort shall include concept, Preliminary and Critical Design Reviews 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, developed, engineered, fabricated, and tested for compliance with the individual DO SOO requirements. It is not expected that all DOs 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 DO level. Section 3.0 of this SOW describes the technical requirements that may be required to complete for each individual DO. Not every technical task listed under paragraph 3.0 will be required for completion of each DO, 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/plans, and Contract Data Requirements List (CDRL) Deliverables.

DOs where end items are intended for combat evaluations or quick reaction capability may have abbreviated testing and schedule requirements.

For all DOs, final product acceptance and final service report evaluation will be conducted by the Government Requiring Technical Activity (RTA). Paragraph 1.2 describes the Technology Areas for the types of DOs awarded in this contract. The Technology Areas are all Mobility focused tasking but are separated to align specific technical categories of tasking to facilitate bringing industry expertise to complete each DO. This is a Multi-Award Contract where interested vendors shall propose on any or all Technology Areas by providing historical documentation and current capabilities for each individual Technology 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 Technology Areas. Individual DO SOO shall be sent to specific Technology Area awardees for proposal. Technology Area vendors shall submit a SOW that includes technical plan, tasks, cost, and schedule to accomplish the requirements of the DO SOO. DO proposals shall be evaluated by DO Technical Evaluation Team and NSWC Contracting for award.

1.1 BACKGROUND

Being at the forefront of the combat forces engaged in our current war efforts requires the constant research and implementation of latest technologies into the mobility platforms to increase operational safety, lethality, maintainability, mobility, reliability, durability and availability. To continually adapt to evolving warfare landscapes and mission scenarios, various DoD agencies require a contract mechanism which provides the capability to design, acquire and test prototype vehicle components, enabling the ability to provide the best material solutions for new and legacy ground mobility vehicles.

In conjunction with the requirement to prototype vehicle components is the requirement for the ability to conduct studies forming a basis for an analysis of alternatives to assist in programmatic decisions. Technical Studies required under contract can include transportability testing of in-process design components and systems with defined mission profiles and test track requirements.

NSWC Crane, Mobility Systems Engineering Branch (MXPQ) provides project oversight, engineering, and logistics for mobility platforms across the life cycle, from conceptual design development to engineering field support. MXPQ Subject Matter Experts shall utilize this 5-year multi-award contract to effectively reach industry leaders in mobility engineering and integration and successfully develop prototype solutions to advance the current mobility performance and develop new vehicle technology areas. Prototypes developed under DO shall be considered for Limited Rate Production Quantities for Engineering Development Models, Training Assets, and Test Assets. The need for this contract is to create a prototyping development mechanism to advance mobility technology with industry partners to facilitate an efficient transition of conceptual ideas to integrated production at systems and sub-system levels.
