Description

This announcement seeks out technologies and methodologies to improve expeditionary logistics, and applies to Navy and USMC forward operating environments. NAVFAC ESC is interested in expeditionary technologies and methodologies that are either new, innovative, advance the state-of-the-art, or increase knowledge or understanding of a technology or methodology. To be eligible for consideration and possible contract award, the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of any proposed technology or methododology must be 6 or less (TRLs are defined at http://esto.nasa.gov/files/TRL_definitions.pdf). The technology or methodology shall be in either basic research (Category 6.1), applied research (Category 6.2), advanced technology development not for a specific system/hardware (Category 6.3A), or demonstration and validation (Category 6.3B). Furthermore, the technology or methodology shall address one of the following topic areas. TOPIC NO. 1: ENHANCED INFRASTRUCTURE. Innovative technologies are sought for lightweight, mobile infrastructure elements such as bridging systems, shelter systems, protective barrier systems, power distribution and monitoring equipment, roadway, and landing pad systems. Technologies may include but are not limited to: advanced materials, fabrication techniques, repair techniques, modular construction, high voltage power transmission systems, and intelligent resource allocation systems. TOPIC NO. 2: ENHANCED SELF SUFFICIENCY FOR WATER. Innovative ideas are sought for the treatment of water in small scale systems with production rates of up to 1 gallon per minute. Topics include disinfection, filtration, and desalination technologies at both the component and system level. Technologies which minimize weight, cube, energy, and logistics requirements are of interest. These may include: advanced filtration barrier technologies with wide operational envelopes (temperature, salinity, contaminates, etc.), field cleanable filter systems, advanced flow schemes for particle separation, small and energy efficient desalination technologies, technologies which minimize fouling, efficiency improvement schemes, and energy recovery technologies. Innovative water packaging, storage, and distribution technologies will be considered, as will small advanced water quality verification systems. TOPIC NO 3: ENERGY EFFICIENT EXPEDITIONARY FACILITIES. Technologies are sought for increasing the energy efficiency of expeditionary facilities. This includes advanced measurement, planning, distribution, and allocation technologies for control of electrical, water, natural gas, and thermal systems, as well as automated tools for conducting energy audits. Innovative insulation and thermal management technologies are sought for all types of shelter systems. Innovative technologies are sought to increase the efficiency of environmental conditioning units (ECUs) beyond 10% of existing expeditionary ECUs. These may include but are not limited to: modifications which can drop in to existing ECUs, advanced vapor compression cycles utilizing coolants with a global warming potential less than 4, advanced dehumidification technologies to decrease the latent cooling load in humid environments, advanced non-vapor compression cycles, and absorption ECUs which can utilize low grade waste heat. TOPIC NO 4: MODELING TOOLS TO FORECAST EFFECTS OF ENHANCED TECHNOLOGIES. Innovative tools and techniques are sought for investigation of the effects of improved logistics technologies and their added capabilities on future expeditionary operations. Such modeling and simulation tools may be used to guide future logistics technology development. TOPIC NO 5: ENHANCED NAVAL PORT SECURITY. Assistance is sought for the research, development, testing and analysis of technologies and methods related to supporting Navy port security capabilities and requirements. Technologies providing capabilities to detect, classify, delay, deter and respond to threats posing risk to Navy personnel and equipment are areas of interest. Navy ports consist of the land, air and sea spaces. TOPIC NO 6: ENHANCED LOGISTICS TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES. Innovative sensors, prognostics, logistics command and control, and modeling and simulation technologies are sought to provide improved awareness of both inventory location and condition.
