About this opportunity
This Broad Agency Announcement from the Naval Research Laboratory seeks innovative research proposals across multiple technical topics to advance science and technology. Proposals will be evaluated through a scientific review to assess technical approach and potential benefit to the Government weighed against cost. Contracts, grants, cooperative agreements and other transactions may be awarded. Interested parties must first submit a white paper including a rough cost estimate by March 1, 2024, after which time invitations to submit formal proposals under specific Summary Topics may be extended.
There is no set-aside designated for this opportunity. Awards are expected to be in the form of various contractual vehicles at the Department of the Navy with performance carried out in Washington, D.C. Encouragement is given to proposals from educational institutions, small businesses, small disadvantaged businesses and historically black colleges and universities. The attached BAA announcement provides full details on research areas, proposal requirements and evaluation.

Awards under this BAA are expected to take the form of Contracts, Grants, Cooperative Agreements and Other Transactions may also be awarded if appropriate. NRL encourages Educational Institutions, Small Businesses (SBs), Small Disadvantaged Business Concerns (SDBs) and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Minority Institutions (MIs) to submit proposals under this BAA.

Selection of proposals for award will be based on the potential benefits to the Government weighed against the cost of the proposals, in view of the availability of funds.
