About this opportunity
This Special Notice is a Notification of Intent published by the Naval Air Warfare Center (NAWCAD), a subordinate command of the Department of the Navy Naval Air Systems Command, on March 5, 2026. The notice announces an anticipated procurement for Battlespace Modeling and Simulation (BMS) Engineering Services and provides a draft Performance Work Statement for review. This is classified as a sources sought notice intended to inform the contracting community, including potential prime contractors and subcontractors, of the government's requirements and to solicit constructive feedback on the anticipated solicitation. The government emphasizes that all information presented is draft in nature and not final until the formal solicitation is released. The notice explicitly encourages industry feedback to refine the procurement strategy prior to full solicitation release.
The primary objective of this notice is to gather input from potential contractors on a comprehensive BMS engineering services contract that encompasses research, design, development, and engineering support for battlespace and distributed simulation requirements. Interested parties must submit constructive feedback by March 17, 2026 at 12:00 PM EDT to the listed Contract Specialist, Karen Joachim. The work requires approximately 30 percent performance at the government site in Patuxent River, Maryland, with the remaining 70 percent at contractor facilities within 20 miles of NAS Patuxent River, and successful contractors must establish a GENSER Secret level laboratory of at least 3,000 square feet and maintain a minimum of 30 classified network workstations within 90 days of award. Contractors must have personnel with security clearances ranging up to TOP SECRET/Sensitive Compartmented Information and must demonstrate compliance with NIST SP 800-171 controls and extensive cybersecurity, OPSEC, and information security standards. The contract encompasses multiple critical areas including simulation tool development and maintenance, warfare scenario development, entity model integration, software testing, and comprehensive program and project management support.
