The Department of Navy, Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific (NIWC-PAC),
Meteorological and Oceanographic (METOC), Expeditionary and Joint Systems In-Service
Engineering Agent (ISEA), code 41150 has identified a requirement to provide ISEA
activities for the METOC systems assigned to the METOC Capabilities Based (CB) ISEA,
Foreign Military Sales (FMS) systems, and Expeditionary and Joint systems, projects and
tasking engaged in worldwide operations, ashore and afloat. The primary efforts to be
supported include: Technical Sustainment Support, Logistics Support, Sustainment
Engineering Support, Modernizations Support, Software Maintenance, Program
Management Support, Training Services and Certification Authority.
This is a follow-on requirement to an existing Multiple Award Contract (MAC) with a
similar scope to this effort. The incumbents are Assured Space Access Technologies, Inc.
(N66001-15-D-0069), Del Rey Systems and Technology, Inc. (N66001-15-D-0070), and
Forward Slope Inc. (N66001-15-D-0071). The ordering period for the existing contract
ends 22 June 2020. This predecessor MAC was competed as a total small business set-
aside.
A market survey to determine small business capability was posted on NAVWAR e-
Commerce Central on 26 July 2019 under reference number MKTSVY_16354A. After
thorough review of the small business respondents' capabilities, NIWC-PAC intends to
solicit the requirement as a 100% small business set-aside. The NIWC-PAC Small
Business Office (SBO) concurred with the acquisition strategy decision on 02 October
2019.
NIWC-PAC intends to issue a solicitation (RFP N66001-19-R-0088) resulting in a Multiple
Award, Indefinite-Delivery, Indefinite-Quantity (IDIQ) contract with Cost-Plus-Fixed-Fee
(CPFF) pricing Contract Line Item Number (CLIN) for services, as well as Cost
Reimbursement (COST) pricing for Other Direct Costs (inclusive of travel) and Materials.
No fee will be allowed under the COST CLINs. The prospective contracts will have a base
period of two (2) years, followed by three (3) potential one (1) year option periods. The
estimated level of effort for the total requirement is 437,040 hours. Orders will be placed
pursuant to the ordering process at FAR 16.505(a). The North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS) Code is 541330 Engineering Services, with a Small
Business Size Standard of $41.5 million. The Product Service Code is L058, Technical
Representative ââ¬â Communication, Detection, and Coherent Radiation Equipment. The
proposed acquisition has security requirements at the Secret level. NIWC-PAC does not
intend to hold an industry day for this requirement.
