About this opportunity
This Special Notice is issued by the Department of the Navy's Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) to inform vendors of an upcoming Request for Solutions (RFS) for low-cost, unmanned maritime prototype solutions. The RFS will be issued through the Expeditionary Missions Consortium - Crane (EMC2) consortium to address the need of the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane Division in support of the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering's Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Platforms and Enablers (OUSD R&E DASD P&E) Maritime Domain Portfolio.
The purpose of this RFS is to seek two different low-cost, unmanned maritime prototype solutions that vary in overall length and corresponding capabilities. The government intends to award an Other Transaction (OT) agreement in accordance with 10 U.S. Code § 4022 to evaluate the experimental performance of the prototypes and determine their viability for future military use. Interested vendors must be members of the EMC2 consortium, and the RFS is anticipated to be released on or around November 20, 2024 with a due date of November 20, 2024.

PROJECT OVERVIEW
NSWC Crane Division is seeking solutions for two different low cost, unmanned maritime prototypes that vary in overall length and corresponding capabilities. The two overall lengths are 0ft-20ft and 20ft-85ft. Procurement under 10 U.S. Code § 4022 authority will allow for the evaluation of experimental performance of the Low Cost Unmanned Maritime Solution to determine viability for future military use and provide development support for innovative technology prototypes, from concept definition through a phased approach to potential full rate production. Results of the experimentation and testing will be used to develop performance specifications, develop the technical data package and integrated payload capabilities, and collect a body of evidence to inform requirements for future acquisition decisions. This includes the need for processes, people, and technologies to achieve mission objectives.
