A Study on Vessel Design Challenge

Solicitation # 693JF726R000016

The U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP No. 693JF726R000016) for a Vessel Design Challenge under the Maritime Environmental and Technical Assistance (META) program. The initiative seeks to fund multiple design teams to develop integrated vessel designs that achieve a 30% improvement in fuel efficiency and reduce underwater radiated noise (URN). Total available funding is up to 1.25 million dollars, with individual awards typically ranging between 150,000 and 450,000 dollars. The project timeline is generally 12 to 18 months, though some agreement terms specify a period of performance up to 24 months. Eligible applicants include all domestic entities other than individuals. For the purposes of this challenge, U.S.-registered entities are considered domestic applicants, regardless of foreign parent ownership. While there is an evaluative preference for team leads that are U.S. companies with U.S. headquarters operating under the U.S. flag, this is not a disqualifying criterion. Design teams should ideally follow a design-build approach, incorporating naval architects, marine engineers, shipyards, owners, and technology providers. Proposals are limited to 20 pages and must include a detailed design and modeling approach, a justifiable budget, and a project timeline. Key deliverables include a preliminary vessel design with technical details on hull form and propulsion, stability and load analyses, and a comprehensive economic analysis featuring a return on investment timeline. Evaluation will be based on the design integration plan, methodology, team capabilities, and budget justification. All applicants must maintain active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM).
