A -- SYNTHETIC ENVIRONMENT DATA MODELING, INTERCHANGE, ACCESS, AND REUSE DEVELOPMENT EFFORT (SEDRIS) SOL BAA 95-02 DUE 120495 POC Vallerie Redd, Contract Specialist, at (407)380-4625 Through STRICOM/ARI's Broad Agency Announcement 95-02 under Part I - Research Interests, paragraph 2-B, the Simulation,Training, and Instrumentation Command (STRICOM), in coordination with the Defense Modeling and Simulation Office (DMSO) and the DoD Modeling and Simulation Executive Agents for Environment Representation, is aggressively pursuing development of innovative solutions to Modeling and Simulation (M&S) problems in synthetic environment data modeling, interchange, access, and reuse based on Synthetic Environment Data Representation and Interchange Specification (SEDRIS) concepts. Interested parties are encouraged to submit white papers prior to submitting proposals. The white papers will be reviewed to determine that the proposed effort is within the scope and interest of this solicitation. Subsequently, offerors will be notified whether or not their white paper was favorably received. Favorable review of a white paper does not constitute selection of the proposed effort for contract award and will not establish a binding commitment for the government to fund the effort. Proposals will be evaluated by a technical review board using the following criteria: overall scientific and technical merit; understanding of the problem; cost; direct application to the enhancement of the representation, exchange, and use of Synthetic Environment data; technical experience and education of the personnel performing the work; and the background or past experience of the offeror in M&S using synthetic environment databases in visual, Computer Generated Forces (CGF) or constructive simulations. White papers must be received at STRICOM no later than 4 December 1995. Favorable notification of white papers will be accomplished by 22 December 1995. Final proposals will be required no later than 10 January 1996. Anticipated contract award date is 15 March 1996. Send white papers to: Simulation, Training, and Instrumentation Command ATTN: AMSTI-ET (P. Woodard) 12350 Research Parkway Orlando, FL 32826. Send proposals to: Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division ATTN: Code 27334 (Vallerie Rdd) 12350 Research Parkway Orlando FL, 32826. Before responding to this announcement, it is strongly recommended that all offerors obtain the Supplemental Information to this synopsis by contacting Ms. Vallerie Redd, (407) 380-4625, or e-mail, reddv@stricom.army.mil or Mr. Kim Denver, (407)380-8818. Note: It is expected that non-government personnel, who have signed non-disclosure agreements, will participate in the technical review of white papers and/or proposals submitted in response to this announcement. Also note that this is not a new synopsis for a new BAA. This synopsis refers to Part I -Research Interests, paragraph 2-B, of the current STRICOM/ARI BAA 95-02 issued 01 August 1995 and expires 01 August 2000 and relates to a particular area of interest to STRICOM. If you are already in receipt of the BAA, there is no need to request an additional copy in order to respond to this synopsis. (0326)
