- Description
- NAVSUP Fleet Logistics Center Norfolk “ Philadelphia Office intends to acquire on a sole source basis, under authority 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) IAW FAR 6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services satisfy agency requirements with QUANTICS, Incorporated for the acquisition of services that include mathematical model development and modification, software coding, database development and management, validation and verification, data entry, requirements computation, assessment of results, documentation and on-call munitions requirements analysis to support OPNAV N81. The effort provides the analytical base for the Department of the Navy ™s ordnance inventory requirements and is used for Program Objective Memorandum (POM)/budget development and program assessment. The effort under this contract is divided into four phases: 1. Naval Munitions Requirements Process (NMRP) Working Group review and software development. 2. Database development review and issue resolution. 3. Computation and Output Presentation. 4. Studies and Analysis. The NMRP requires several specialized disciplines under one service contract to successfully complete all phases; highly analytic/applied mathematics discipline, application of analytic techniques and modeling warfare concepts-of-operations, experience in the NMRP modeling suite or significant experience in mathematical modeling methods (including Monte Carlo simulation and Markov Chain sampling), data collection and analysis work in programs of similar complexity and scope, computer science and software design, and experience in Naval Service warfare, warfare systems and munitions capabilities, performance, attributes, employment procedures and effects. The contractor shall develop a software development program to be applied to all software developed or modified during the course of the contract. The effort will require the contractor to have significant experience in Navy and Marine Corps operations and particularly the determination of ordnance requirements, and familiarity with Navy and Marine Corps organizations. Since the NMRP generates munitions requirements, the contractor must have complete understanding of Naval service warfighting concepts including Strike Warfare, Close Air Support, Anti-Submarine Warfare (surface, air, and sub-surface based), Anti-Surface Warfare, Anti-Air Warfare, Countermine Techniques, and platform self-protection techniques. Along with the requisite warfighting understanding, they must also be able to translate warfighting concepts into mathematical calculations and model/software code. The contractor must understand the principles of applied math and computational techniques upon which the NMRP system software was designed and be able to operate and make changes to the system software modeling code. All of the model descriptions and the corresponding documentation will be furnished to the servicing contractor in a ready to use status as Government Furnished Equipment. All changes to the models and the methodologies that the contractor makes during the period of performance of the contract must be thoroughly tested and documented by the contractor and provided as a deliverable to OPNAV N81. The NMRP requires constant, secure collaboration between the vendor and OPNAV N81. On day one of the contract, the service provider must possess the required security clearances, secret DoD facility clearance, and more importantly, secure connectivity (SIPRNet) with N81. The applicable NAICS code is 541690. The Government anticipates this requirement to be awarded as a cost plus fixed fee contract competition in accordance with FAR 15 (Contracting by Negotiation). This notice of intent is not a request for quotes “ however, the Government will consider information received by the specified response date. Information received as a result of this notice will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Government not to compete this proposed procurement based on responses received is solely within the discretion of the Government, and will not pay for information submitted in response to this notice. Please restrict all responses to non-proprietary information, and be advised that all submissions become Government property and will not be returned. Responses are requested no later than 30 July 2015 at 1400 EST, and shall only be submitted via e-mail to Pete Certo at peter.certo@navy.mil.
