About this opportunity

This Special Notice is a Notification of Intent for the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD) Battlespace Modeling and Simulation (BMS) Engineering Services contract re-compete, published by the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command Naval Air Warfare Center. The notice relates to an earlier Sources Sought Notice posted on May 2, 2025, and represents the government's formal announcement of its procurement strategy moving forward. The agency plans to pursue a single-award Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract through an unrestricted, full and open competition approach. Market research conducted by the government identified eight responding organizations across two NAICS codes, comprising four large businesses and four small businesses. However, only two small businesses were determined to be technically capable of executing the complete requirement. The contract falls under NAICS code 541715 for Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences.

The purpose of this notification is to inform industry of the government's intent to proceed with the BMS contract re-compete and provide transparency regarding the planned procurement approach and timeline. The proposed contract structure will consist of approximately 85% Level of Effort severable services task orders and 15% performance completion-based non-severable delivery orders, with performance split between 30% at the government site and 70% at the contractor site. The evaluation criteria will include Small Business status, Corporate Experience, Past Performance, Management and Resourcing, and Cost/Price, with technical factors weighted more heavily than price considerations. The government plans to conduct an industry day and one-on-one meetings during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026 to further engage with potential contractors. Interested parties may submit questions to the Contract Specialist via email, and updates will be posted on SAM.gov as the procurement process advances. All contractors interested in this defense research and development opportunity should monitor for future announcements regarding the formal solicitation release.
