About this opportunity

The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory seeks an engineering development model or mature Active Electronically Scanned Array antenna to fulfill requirements of its Next-Gen Multi-Mode Maritime Radar program. The antenna must include multiple transmit/receive channels, support MIMO operation and polarization, and demonstrate frequency and pulse agility. Offerors must deliver the system within one year of the September 14, 2020 proposal deadline, along with interim documentation. Proposals will be evaluated based on technical approach, past performance, and price.

No set-aside designations apply. The solicitation falls under NAICS code 334220 and PSC code 5821. The single-award IDIQ contract has a five-year period of performance and potential value of $25M. Offerors must demonstrate the antenna meets size, weight and power constraints for installation on the NRL's RC-12 aircraft, and specify how the system will withstand an airborne environment. Place of performance is Washington, D.C. The Secretary of the Navy, Office of Naval Research issued the solicitation.

Update #3 · Latest ·

The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) requires an engineering development model (EDM) or more mature Active Electronically Scanned Array (AESA) antenna that will be installed on the NRL RC-12 aircraft. This AESA is required to fulfill NRL’s Next-Gen Multi-Mode Maritime Radar program requirement of performing simultaneous radar search, track, and imaging. This antenna will be integrated in to our existing RF receiver, exciter and radar control system. The critical technologies that this antenna must include are multiple transmit and receive channels, multiple input multiple output (MIMO) operation, polarimetric operation, as well as frequency and pulse agility. To satisfy the objective of our flight test campaign, the product must be able to fit within the size, weight and power (SWaP) constraints of the aircraft, as well as survive the airborne environment.

Solicitation updated to add Exhibit CDRLs.

8/19/2020 -- The following statement is stricken from Section L-2, "However, prospective offerors shall have the required facility clearance in accordance with attached DD254 at the time of proposal and personnel available with final DoD granted personnel security clearances required for performance of the contract".

Section L-2 now reads as follows:

L-2 SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
