About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Naval Supply Systems Command (NAVSUP) has released a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for the Irregular Warfare Technical Support Directorate (IWTSD) seeking research and development proposals across ten critical mission areas including Advanced Analytics, Chemical/Biological/Radiological/Nuclear/Explosives, Explosive Ordnance Disposal, and Tactical Offensive Support. The BAA utilizes a three-phase proposal process requiring a one-page Quad Chart, a 12-page White Paper, and a 50-page Full Proposal, all to be submitted through the BIDS system. Proposals must demonstrate compliance with cybersecurity requirements and the Risk Management Framework, with an emphasis on innovative solutions in areas like robotics training, artificial intelligence marksmanship systems, and tactical communication capabilities. The solicitation encourages participation from industry, academia, and government labs, with an Industry Day scheduled for March 6, 2025, to discuss draft requirements. The anticipated final BAA release date is March 26, 2025, with proposal submissions due by April 20, 2025.
The solicitation does not include any specific set-aside designations, meaning all qualified entities can compete for potential contracts. Anticipated contract structures are firm-fixed-price with performance periods ranging from 12-24 months, focusing on experimental development services within the National Security and Defense R&D services sector. While specific award values are not explicitly stated, the comprehensive scope of mission areas suggests substantial potential contract values. The primary place of performance is located in Washington, DC 20032, with the government seeking licensing rights rather than full intellectual property ownership. Classified submissions up to the SECRET level will be accepted, subject to special handling procedures. The BAA supports national defense objectives by seeking innovative solutions across multiple technical and operational domains, with a strong emphasis on supporting irregular warfare capabilities and technological advancements in military research and development.
