- The Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) anticipates negotiation of a competitive contract, with cost-reimbursable and firm fixed price task orders, for research and development (R&D) for a wide variety of survivability and fire protection research, development, testing and evaluation (RDT&E) projects for the Navy and other Department of Defense (DoD) /Government organizations for surface ships, submarines, aircraft, land vehicles and shore-based facility applications. The mission of the NRL's Navy Technology Center for Safety and Survivability (NTCSS) is to conduct applied research and development studies to help solve current and future Navy problems in the fields of combustion, fire modeling and scaling, fuels and environmental hazards, and fire extinguishment. This work is applied to both (1) short-range Navy problems-environmental issues of both DoD and national concern-and the (2) long-range development of scientific expertise and knowledge relevant to future Navy and DoD missions. The purpose of this contract is to provide personnel with the requisite technical expertise and experience to perform research, development, testing and evaluation (RDT&E) for the NRL NTCSS (Code 6180) in the areas described below: •Fire Extinguishing Agents and Delivery Systems •Fire Hazard Analysis and Passive Fire Safety •Small Scale and Large Scale Fire Tests •Firefighting Doctrine Development The expected place of performance for this requirement is Naval Research Lab, Washington, DC (NRL-DC); NRL Chesapeake Bay Detachment (CBD), located in Chesapeake Beach, MD; NLR-Fire Test Ship, ex-USS SHADWELL, located in Mobile, AL, and at various contractor, subcontractor, and Government facilities (mainly in the continental United States). All Contractor personnel working on NRL shall possess a favorably completed DoD investigation and a final DoD granted Secret security clearance at time of proposal submission. This synopsis is for the acquisition of a 5 year Indefinite-Delivery Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ), with cost-reimbursable and firm fixed price task orders. The performance work statement will be available as part of the solicitation. The estimated value of this acquisition is $6,400,000.00 under NAICS 541712. Based on a survey of the market, the government has determined that the services to be acquired do not meet the definition of a commercial item. Therefore, the government does not intend to use the procedures as outlined in FAR Part 12 for this acquisition. This acquisition will be procured in a competitive negotiated environment using formal source selection procedures set forth in FAR Part 15. This solicitation will be processed utilizing Full and Open Competition in accordance with FAR Subpart 6.1. The NRL uses electronic commerce (EC) to issue requests for proposals (RFPs) and amendments to RFPs. Paper copies of the RFP will not be provided. Be advised that failure to register in the SAM database makes an offeror ineligible for award of DoD contracts. Information regarding this registration may be obtained by accessing the website https://www.sam.gov. Notification of any changes to the solicitation (amendments) shall be made only on the FebBizOps website. Therefore, it is the offeror's responsibility to check the internet sites daily for any posted changes to the solicitation plans and specifications. The Government intends to make a single award to the offeror that represents the best value to the Government, price and non-price factors considered.
