- Revised guide This Amendment modifies FedBizOpps announcement dated 01 May 2009 to include the following: INITIAL WHITE PAPERS DESIRED BY 15 JUNE 2009. The NAVAL AIR SYSTEMS COMMAND (NAVAIR), Propulsion and Power Engineering Department, Science and Technology Office (AIR 4.4T) are soliciting proposal abstracts for technologies that will significantly increase the mission performance, operational capabilities, reduce the total ownership cost, and improve system readiness of Naval Air Vehicles. Solicitation Number: N68335-09-R-0204 Broad Agency Announcement (BAA). Topics include development of new Prognostics, Diagnostics, and Health Monitoring systems for propulsion, power and drive systems; development of Navy propulsion component and subsystem technologies applicable to fleet engines and near term upgrades/derivative engines which reduce fuel consumption; development of Advanced Aircraft Power Systems, Fuel & Energy Conservation Technology, Alternative Fuel Test & Certification Methodology Improvements, and Aircraft Energy Conservation. Detailed information is provided in the NAVAIR publication “Guide to Naval Aircraft Propulsion and Power Technology Development Programs for Fiscal Year 2009”. The aforementioned guide can be accessed via the internet at: www.navair.navy.mil/doing_business/open_solicitations/; telephone requests will not be honored. Requests for this publication can also be made by mail to: Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Highway 547, Bldg 562-3, Code 2.5.2.3.1, Attn: Judith Dastis, Contract Specialist, Lakehurst, NJ 08733. This notice constitutes a NAVAIR Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) contemplated in FAR 6.102(D)(2)(i). This announcement and any modifications to this announcement will be open through 30 April 2010 in the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOps). White Papers (WP) and Proposals can be submitted any time during this period. INITIAL WHITE PAPERS DESIRED BY 15 JUNE 2009. WPs (as described below) need to be coordinated with the appropriate technical area leader and may result in a request for a formal proposal. This is needed to reduce unnecessary proposal preparation work for efforts that may not be of interest to the Navy, or because of the uncertainty of program budgets. Evaluations will be conducted by panel of government experts using the following criteria: (1) understanding the problem, including the ability to plan and implement the program and formulate pertinent objectives; (2) soundness of technical approach, including ability to integrate the proposed technology, adequacy of analysis and degree of technology advancement; (3) allocation of resources, experience and management, including facilities, personnel and (4) past performance in similar efforts, specific areas to be evaluated are quality of product or services, timeliness of performance, and cost control; and (5) and the proposed cost and cost realism. No further criteria will be used in the evaluation. The technical and cost information will be evaluated at the same time. Further details on these criteria are contained in the aforementioned Guide. Selection for award will be based on the potential benefit to the Government weighed against the cost of the proposals, in view of the availability of government funds. Cost plus fixed fee, cost sharing, and cost contracts are anticipated. Other types of contracts may be proposed, but offerors are advised that the Government is under no obligation to accept. Specific reporting requirements cited on the Contract Data Requirements List (DD1423) shall be specified within each contract award. At a minimum all offerors will be required to submit the following reports: a) Detailed Planning Report; b) Progress Report; c) Financial Reports; d) Test Plans; e) Program Reviews; f) Presentation Material; and g) Final Report. Proposal submission process, format and content, as well as deliverable items are delineated in the above mentioned NAVAIR Guide. Initial proposals or White Papers (WP) should not exceed 30 pages in length, including a cost estimate. BRIEFNESS IS DESIRABLE - WPs RANGING FROM A FEW PAGES TO 15 PAGES ARE THE NORM. Cost estimates in WPs for stand-alone subsets of effort are encouraged. Offerors of those WPs found to be consistent with the intent of the BAA will be invited to submit a formal cost and technical proposal. One original and three copies of each WP, and later, if invited, of each formal cost and technical proposal are to be submitted. WPs and Proposals shall be submitted to: Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Highway 547, Bldg 562-3, Code 2.5.2.3.1, Attn: Judith Dastis, Contract Specialist, Lakehurst, NJ 08733. There will be no formal Request For Proposal (RFP) or other Solicitation issued with regard to this requirement. The Navy reserves the right to select for award any, all, part of, or none of the responses received and intends to incrementally fund any resultant contract(s), depending on available funding. The BAA is an expression of interest only and does not commit the Government to pay any proposal preparation costs for responding to this BAA. Responses should be forwarded at no cost to the Government. The cost of preparing proposals in response to this announcement is not considered an allowable expense to the normal bid and proposal indirect cost as specified in FAR 31.205-18. Educational institutions, Small Business concerns, Small Disadvantaged Business concerns, Women Owned Small Business Concerns, Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Veteran-Owned Small Business, Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, HUBZone Small business, Women-Owned Small Business and Minority Institutions are especially encouraged to submit proposals for consideration under this BAA.
