ARPA Application Development and Delivery

The contract calls for the development and delivery of an Automatic Radar Plotting Aid application specifically designed for integration with the NXSSR system to automate the tracking of surface vessels and enhance collision avoidance capabilities. The application must reliably detect, track, and predict the movement of maritime targets in real time, providing accurate and timely situational awareness to support safe navigation and operational decision-making. The technical requirements demand robust signal processing, adaptive tracking algorithms, and seamless compatibility with existing NXSSR hardware and software architectures to ensure operational readiness under diverse maritime conditions. The contract is classified as a subcontract under NAICS code 511210 and is issued by the C5I Division 3 Portsmouth under the Department of Homeland Security. Proposals are due by June 8, 2026, at 4:00 PM, with no set-aside provisions specified. Performance is expected to align with the operational needs of the agency, though the exact location of performance is not detailed. The solicitation is open for response through the SAM.gov portal, and successful bidders must demonstrate proven expertise in radar data analysis, maritime domain awareness systems, and software development for defense or homeland security applications. The project requires full lifecycle delivery including design, testing, documentation, and deployment support.
