About this opportunity
The Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) is seeking industry input for designing, fabricating, installing, and testing six Damage Control Wet Trainer (DCWT) devices for the US Navy's Surface Warfare Schools Command. These training devices will be used to simulate realistic shipboard damage control scenarios, focusing on flooding, pipe ruptures, and ship collisions, with the capacity to accommodate up to 3,500 students annually. The devices will replace existing trainers at six locations including Great Lakes, IL; Norfolk, VA; Mayport, FL; San Diego, CA; Pearl Harbor, HI; and Yokosuka, Japan. Interested vendors must submit an eight-page response detailing their design concept, rough order of magnitude cost estimate, and high-level project schedule by 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on April 14, 2025. Responses must be electronically submitted to Lisa Castelli and Mark Johnson, referencing solicitation number N6134025R0044, and should include company information, socio-economic status, and potential subcontracting plans.
The pre-solicitation notice does not indicate a specific set-aside for small businesses, though the NAICS code 541330 (Engineering Services) has a small business size standard of $47.0M. While no specific incumbent contractors are mentioned, the current trainers are 30-35 years old and in need of replacement. The RFI emphasizes that this is a market research document and does not guarantee a subsequent contract award, with responses being strictly voluntary. The project will require a brick-and-mortar building at most sites, potentially reusing existing structures, though construction costs are not included in the current rough order of magnitude pricing request. Vendors should note that while previously managed by NAVFAC, this effort will be primarily managed by a different sponsor and stakeholder within the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command.
