About this opportunity
The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) is seeking contractor support for scientific and technical services focused on underwater and air explosion (UNDEX/AIREX) analysis of naval vessels. The Department of the Navy is soliciting proposals for experts capable of utilizing specialized software codes to conduct complex technical analyses of undersea and surface vessel shock environments. Key contract requirements include developing software applications for shock qualification, creating finite element models, performing computational analyses of weapon effects, and supporting research and development efforts for submarine and surface ship programs. The agency will evaluate potential contractors based on their technical capabilities, government contract experience, and ability to meet cybersecurity workforce qualifications, including specific certification levels. Critical deadlines include questions due by 28 April 2025 at 1000 ET, government responses posted by 7 May 2025 at 1400 ET, and completed market research questionnaires and capability statements due by 22 May 2025 at 1200 ET.
The procurement is not currently designated for a specific small business set-aside, though market research will be conducted to assess small business capabilities. Current services are being performed by T. Carroll Associates, Inc., The Survice Engineering Company LLC, and Thornton Tomasetti, Inc. The anticipated contract will be a Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee (CPFF) type with a potential five-year performance period, consisting of a base year and four one-year option years. The contract will fall under NAICS Code 541330 (Engineering Services) with a small business size standard of $47 million. Maximum security classification for the work will be SECRET, and primary performance is expected to occur at the contractor's facilities. Contractor personnel must meet specific cybersecurity workforce qualifications, including IAT II certification level and appropriate background investigations. The overall objective is to support research, development, test, and evaluation (RDT&E) for naval platform survivability and weapons effects analysis.
