Command and Control Experimentation (C2X) Project

This pre-solicitation notice seeks proposals from Hubzone small businesses to continue development efforts under the Command and Control Experimentation Project. Specifically, the selected contractor will provide technical analysis, research and development, software development, integration, testing and evaluation for advanced C2 technologies. The contractor shall develop container-based software utilizing microservices, containers, service mesh and kubernettes. The work includes design, implementation, research, analytics, user story capture and associated documentation. Proposals are due by September 5, 2023. The Department of the Navy Information Warfare Systems Command will evaluate proposals.

There is no set-aside designation. The contractor will continue development previously performed under the C2X Project. The solicitation does not provide NAICS, PSC codes, budget ranges or timelines. As the incumbent contractor performed similar work, they may have an advantage competing for this follow-on effort. The notice lacks specifics typically included in full solicitations.
