- Description
- OPERATOR SELECTION FOR TWO AUXILIARY GENERAL PURPOSE OCEANOGRAPHIC RESEARCH (AGOR) SHIPS (AGOR 27 AND AGOR 28) This notice is an announcement for the competitive, merit-based selection of operators for two Ocean Class research ships, Auxiliary General Purpose Oceanographic Research (AGOR) 27 and AGOR 28. To be eligible for selection, an offeror must be a United States academic institution or formal consortium of U.S. institutions currently conducting graduate level research programs in the ocean sciences. In addition, offerors must either be a member of the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) or meet the requirements for, and apply for, full membership. Interested parties are requested to provide a preliminary indication of interest via email to the points of contact in the Announcement by 2 October 2009. A formal Request for Proposals (RFP), Broad Area Announcement (BAA), other solicitation or additional information regarding this announcement will not be issued. The Announcement can be viewed at http://www.onr.navy.mil/sci_tech/32/. Amendments, if any, will be posted to FBO and the ONR website listed above. The Government seeks to further enable U.S. ocean science experimental capability by providing superior facilities and stabilizing, or reducing, overall Federal operational costs anticipated by the University-National Oceanographic Laboratory System (UNOLS) fleet. To implement this goal, the Office of Naval Research (ONR), which serves as the mission sponsor for the design and construction of two vessels, seeks operators of these ocean science research ships for use by U.S. academic institutions to meet Navy, national, and worldwide research and data collection requirements. Each of these ships is meant to displace existing ships in the UNOLS academic fleet. These ships will be modern, mono-hull research ships capable of performing integrated and interdisciplinary oceanographic research in areas ranging from the shallow coastal and continental shelf areas to oceans worldwide. Primary Point of Contact: Mr. Tim (Robert) Schnoor, Ocean Battlespace Sensing Science and Technology Department, ONR Code 32, tim.schnoor@navy.mil, (703) 696-4530
