- Description
- Background/Program Details: The NATO SEASPARROW Project Office (NSPO), PEO IWS 12.0, is seeking a suite of Open Source Modeling and Simulation tools that can integrate within the SysML v2 missile system model and provide: missile system performance analysis with limited to no use of custom application plug-ins (APIs), the ability to assess impact of missile hardware and software changes on performance, and the flexibility to run all digital low-to-high fidelity simulations of both end-to-end missile and full kill chain performance. The ability of these software tools to interface with full hardware-in-the-loop (HiL) and hybrid simulations is also of interest. This integrated M&S suite aims to enhance the efficiency, flexibility, and effectiveness of future ESSM development. Figure 1 (in the attachment) is an example of what an open-source M&S suite would encompass for a missile system. NSPO is a twelve nation international consortium with a mission to provide a platform for international cooperation and innovation to manage the development, production, integration, and sustainment of effective, reliable, and affordable weapon systems to protect consortium and partner nation forces from current and future threats. More information on the NATO SEASPARROW Surface Missile System Project can be found at this link; https://www.natoseasparrow.org/. THIS SPECIAL NOTICE IS AN ADVANCED NOTICE FOR INFORMATION, MARKET RESEARCH, AND PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP). THERE WILL NOT BE A SOLICITATION AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. THIS ANNOUNCEMENT IS FOR THE PURPOSE OF MARKET RESEARCH ONLY AND MAY OR MAY NOT TRANSLATE INTO AN ACTUAL PROCUREMENT.

The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), NATO Seasparrow Project Office is conducting market research to assess opportunities to develop and produce an Open-Source Modeling and Simulation tool that meets the restrictions and provides the capabilities listed in the attached word document which also provides all response requirements. The Capabilities Statement should describe the company's demonstrated capabilities and experience with designing, integrating, testing and/or producing open-source modeling and simulation tools. Failure to provide a response does not preclude participation in any possible future RFP, if issued. DISCLAIMER THIS REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI), AS DEFINED IN FAR 15.201(e), IS SOLELY FOR INFORMATIONAL AND PLANNING PURPOSES ONLY AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL, REQUEST FOR QUOTE (or any type of solicitation), OR AS AN OBLIGATION OR COMMITMENT ON THE PART OF THE GOVERNMENT TO CONTRACT FOR ANY SUPPLY OR SERVICE, or as a promise to issue a solicitation in the future.
