About this opportunity
The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) is seeking proposals to provide personnel, equipment, and facilities for instrument systems engineering and research support for the design, development, analysis, fabrication, assembly, integration, testing, and documentation of sophisticated space science instruments and experimental payloads. Key requirements include advanced thermal, mechanism, optical, contamination, and systems engineering activities for space science instruments and payloads in the areas of Geospace Science and Technology, High Energy Space Environment, and Solar and Heliospheric Physics. The contract will be awarded as a Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract, and the government will evaluate proposals based on technical approach, management plan, personnel qualifications, and cost.
This is a re-compete effort for the current contract N00173-18-F-6201, which was awarded to SGT Inc. through the OASIS contract vehicle. There is no set-aside designation for this procurement. The government anticipates a contract value in the range of $50-100 million over a 5-year period, with the work to be performed in Washington, DC.

The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) is the Navy’s corporate lab for conducting basic and applied research in the space sciences. In order to carry out space science investigations, the Space Sciences Division (SSD, CODE 7600) needs technical support for the design, fabrication, assembly, testing, and calibration of experiments, scientific instrument structures, components, subsystems, support equipment, and related field operations. This involves computer modeling, experiment design, data analysis, instrument packaging, payload testing, and field deployments.
The purpose for this Request for Proposals (RFP) is procure the personnel, equipment, and facilities necessary to perform instrument systems engineering and research pursuant to the design, development, analysis, fabrication, assembly, integration, testing and documentation of sophisticated space science instruments and experimental payloads for the SSD. Specific issues to be addressed under this solicitation are advanced thermal, mechanism, optical, contamination and systems engineering activities for implementation of Space Science instruments and payloads. The SSD seeks RDT&E support in the following areas: Geospace Science and Technology, High Energy Space Environment, and Solar and Heliospheric Physics.
The Government anticipates award of a Cost Plus Fixed Fee contract. This procurement is a re-compete effort for current contract N00173-18-F-6201, which was awarded via OASIS to SGT Inc.
