About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command is seeking applications for revolutionary research ideas and technology demonstrators advancing Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC) Crane's assigned mission areas through a rolling broad agency announcement with no set closing date. Applicants are unrestricted; eligible entities include educational institutions, nonprofits, and commercial organizations. NSWC Crane will award multiple grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and other transaction agreements spanning 6.1 (basic research) through 6.4 (advanced component development and prototypes) funding across ten technical capability areas: Electronic Warfare, Infrared and Pyrotechnic Countermeasures, Strategic Systems Hardware, Expeditionary Warfare and Systems, Advanced Electronics, Sensors and Surveillance Systems, Hypersonic Weapon Systems, Power and Energy Systems, Electro-optic and Infrared Technologies, and Force Level EW Mission Analysis. Proposals addressing multiple technical capabilities are strongly desired. NSWC Crane's mission encompasses research, development, test and evaluation, acquisition engineering, in-service engineering, and technical support for the United States Navy, Department of Defense components and agencies, and other federal agencies engaged in national security. The three organizational focus areas are Expeditionary Warfare, Strategic Missions, and Electronic Warfare. Abstracts and full proposals are accepted on a rolling basis with no set deadline. Period of performance is unique to each award. Funding is provided under CFDA 12.335, Navy Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance. Small business size standard is 1,000 employees under NAICS code 541715. The most recent amendment to this BAA was posted January 27, 2025.
Synopsis

Update #2 · Latest ·
This announcement seeks revolutionary research ideas, and technology demonstrators that offer potential for advancement and improvement of NSWC Crane's primary mission areas.
NSWC Crane is a field activity of the Naval Sea Systems Command. NSWC Crane supports a wide range of government agencies in the interest of national security. NSWC Crane may publish BAAs and other solicitations in response to specific needs. This BAA is issued to seek innovative solutions and ideas for topics not covered via other means. It is strongly encouraged that potential proposers review existing NSWC Crane solicitations to avoid duplication of effort and to contact the identified points of contact for each BAA topic to discuss specific details of the needs.
The mission of NSWC Crane is to provide research, development, test and evaluation, acquisition engineering, in-service engineering and technical support in its assigned technical capabilities for the United States Navy, Department of Defense components and agencies, and other federal agencies and components engaged in national security. NSWC Crane also works to apply component and system-level product and industrial engineering to surface sensors, strategic systems, special warfare devices and electronic warfare systems, as well as to execute other responsibilities as assigned by the Commander, Naval Surface Warfare Center.
The focus of NSWC Crane is "Harnessing the Power of Technology for the Warfighter." Crane specializes in total lifecycle support in three broad focus areas: Expeditionary Warfare, Strategic Missions, and Electronic Warfare, which support ten assigned technical capabilities (TCs) listed below.
1. Electronic Warfare (EW)
2. Infrared and Pyrotechnic Countermeasures
3. Strategic Systems Hardware
4. Expeditionary Warfare and Systems
5. Advanced Electronics
6. Sensors and Surveillance Systems
7. Hypersonic Weapon Systems
8. Power and Energy Systems
9. Electro-optic and Infrared Technologies
10.Force level EW Mission Analysis, Advanced Concepts and Technologies
Within each of the TCs, there are multiple thrust areas, which present considerable opportunities for innovative research and solutions to support national security imperatives. There is intentional overlapping space within the listed TC such that a potential technology or research idea may support multiple TCs. Any proposal should list the principal TC as well as any adjunct TCs that should be considered. Proposals that support multiple TCs are strongly desired but not necessary.
