About this opportunity
The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory issued a sole-source notice on 17 July 2026 announcing its intent to modify the current task order N0017320F2029 with Arcfield for Research and Development Efforts for High Performance Computing, with a response deadline of 27 July 2026. The modification is justified under 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 6.103-1 on the basis that only one responsible offeror and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.
The purpose of the bridge modification is to provide continuity of specialized RDT&E services to the Information Technology Division at NRL in Washington, DC. The effort encompasses comprehensive research to improve end-to-end computer network performance across the enterprise network stack, including displays, GUI applications, data, storage, security, and the protocols, policies, and directives governing the enterprise, extending from tactical edge to the High Performance Networking Center.
The bridge period runs for six months, with a revised period of performance from 29 July 2026 through 28 January 2027. Work is performed at NRL, Washington, DC. The procurement is classified under NAICS 541715 (Research and Development in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences) and PSC AJ12 (General Science and Technology R&D Services).
