Operating and Support cost Analysis Model (OSCAM) Services

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division is seeking to procure Operating and Support Cost Analysis Model (OSCAM) Services through a firm fixed-price contract on a sole source basis. The services encompass comprehensive support for the Navy's OSCAM family of software tools used in developing operating and support cost estimates for major acquisition programs, including software development and model upgrades using Delphi and PowerSim programming languages, user training course development and maintenance, website content updates, user support services, and conversion of historical datasets. The procurement is being justified as sole source to Decision Analysis Services Limited (DAS), a UK-based company with 24 years of specialized experience in OSCAM model design and coding that the government deems uniquely qualified for this work. A recent amendment modified the contract line item structure, changing CLIN 0001 from "Job" to "Hours" and CLIN 0002 from "Job" to "Job Visit" as units of measure. The solicitation response deadline is July 23, 2025 at 9:00 AM, and interested parties must submit quotes including pricing, company details, and capability demonstrations.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is classified under NAICS code 541511 (Custom Computer Programming Services) with a small business size standard of $34 million. Decision Analysis Services Limited, located in Basingstoke, Hampshire, United Kingdom, is positioned as the incumbent contractor with Point of Contact Stephen Curram, having developed unique expertise that the government estimates would take alternative contractors 6-12 months to acquire, representing 70-135% of the total contract effort. While the total contract value has been redacted from available documents, the procurement falls under the Simplified Acquisition Threshold. The contract will have a one-year period of performance from August 4, 2025 to August 3, 2026, with services to be performed in Westlake, Maryland. The specialized nature of OSCAM model support for Navy ship and aircraft operating and support systems requires contractors to demonstrate comprehensive capabilities in both technical development and training delivery.
