- Description
- The Marince Corps Warfighting Laboratory (MCWL) seeks to obtain market research information from sources capable of fully satisfying the specific agency requirements identified herein that may be procured in the near future. This market research is for informational purposes only and should not be construed as a commitment of any kind. Any information received, in whole or in part, may be used to create the resulting acquisition strategy for the proposed requirements. Responders will not be reimbursed for any information received and are encouraged not to provide proprietary data or business sensitive information as any information received may be used by the Government and/or released to the public. The Government is primarily focused on seeking suitable commercial and non-developmental items or commercial items that can be easily modified to meet existing Government requirements. If no such commercial/non-developmental items currently exist, the Government may entert! ain the procurement of developmental items based on the information received as a result of this market research. Information on capable sources are sought for the following requirements: The U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) is currently involved in research and development for Personnel Transfer Systems Studies, Phase II, in support of the Joint High Speed Vessel (JHSV) Program. The JHSV will be an ocean going vessel that is capable of self-deploying from the Continental United States to an advanced base where it will serve as a high-speed means to transfer cargo and personnel from the sea base to the shore. A critical capability required to enable the High Speed Connector (HSC) concept is the ability to transfer personnel at sea between JHSV’s and other ships. This capability will enable phased at sea arrival and assembly and enhance force closure of the Maritime Prepositioning Force Future MPF(F) Marine Expeditionary Brigade (MEB). The primary goal of this effort is to build upon a previously executed industry survey and concept design effort that identified candidate solutions. This effort will build upon the initial phase by building scale demonstrators repres! enting transfer systems between JHSV’s and Maritime Prepositioning Force Future ships in support of sea basing operations. Specifically, scale models of a four-bar bridge system and a compensated elevator system will be built and tested. Sources capable of fully satisfying the above requirements should submit capability statements/expressions of interest providing the Government the necessary information to determine actual capability. At a minimum, this information should include: 1) identification of your company or organization, 2) your company's or organization's assertion of existing, full capability to meet proposed requirements, 3) business/contracts/marketing office point(s) of contact information, 4) notification of business size and/or special status and 5) any additional information that may be useful to the successful procurement of the requirements, if solicited. These expressions of interest shall adhere to a two (2) pages submission limit, plus commercial marketing info or web links and all should be submitted via email to Sandra.k.hughes2@usmc.mil referencing the following tracking #M67854SS9072. These should be submitted on or before 06 July 2005. This market research announcement should not! be considered a commitment of any kind by the Government and individual correspondence should not be expected in advance of any resulting pre-solicitation notice for the proposed requirements.
