A Study on Vessel Design Challenge
Solicitation # 693JF726R000016
The U.S. Maritime Administration (MARAD) is issuing a Request for Proposals (RFP No. 693JF726R000016) under the Maritime Environmental and Technical Assistance (META) program to fund multiple design teams in creating the next generation of U.S. vessels. The primary objective is to develop integrated vessel designs that achieve a 30% improvement in fuel efficiency and a significant reduction in underwater radiated noise (URN) using a systems approach that couples hull, machinery, and propulsion. Eligible proposals include the redesign of existing projects, new design specifications, or theoretical and experimental designs for commercially useful vessels. The program seeks to revitalize domestic maritime industries by demonstrating the technical feasibility and economic return on investment (ROI) of these advanced design optimizations. Funding is provided through cooperative agreements, with individual awards typically ranging from $150,000 to $450,000 and total available funding up to $1.25 million. The project timeline is generally 12 to 18 months, though some agreement terms specify up to 24 months. Design teams should ideally follow a design-build approach, incorporating naval architects, marine engineers, shipyards, and technology providers. Key deliverables include a preliminary vessel design with technical details on hull form and propulsion, safety validations for stability and load, and a comprehensive economic analysis comparing the design to conventional vessels. Proposals are limited to 20 pages and must be submitted in PDF format via email to the designated MARAD contract specialists. Evaluation is based on the design integration plan, methodology, team capabilities, project timeline, and budget justification.
