About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) is seeking proposals for the Surface Ship Undersea Warfare (USW) Combat System Production contract, which will involve the design, integration, production, testing, and support of USW combat systems, primarily the AN/SQQ-89(V) system for surface ships including cruisers, destroyers, and frigates. The solicitation, numbered N00024-23-R-5202, is a competitive Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract with comprehensive requirements for program management, engineering, logistics support, configuration management, and hardware integration. Potential offerors must submit questions related to the solicitation by August 24, 2023, at 4:00 PM EST, with proposals due by October 4, 2023. The contract will require establishing infrastructure as a service, maintaining open systems architecture compliance, addressing technology obsolescence, and integrating cybersecurity protections. While specific evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the documents, the solicitation suggests a comprehensive technical and cost-based assessment of proposals.
The solicitation does not indicate a specific set-aside for small businesses, though it appears open to all qualified contractors. The contract has an estimated total value exceeding $1 billion and covers a potential performance period of up to ten years with optional extensions. The government anticipates full-rate production will commence in Year 3, with first deliveries expected in Year 5, and a production cadence of at least one system per month. The contract will involve both cost-reimbursement and fixed-price Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs), covering engineering support, system production, data rights, spares, and program management. Contractors will need to demonstrate capabilities in designing and integrating complex naval combat systems, with a Secret facility clearance required and access to classified information necessary. The primary place of performance will likely be at the contractor's facilities, with potential integration and testing work at naval shipyards or bases supporting surface combatant fleets.
