Commercial Solutions Opening for Data and Analytics for Maritime Domain Awareness

The Naval Information Warfare Center Pacific is seeking commercial data and analytics solutions to enhance maritime domain awareness, specifically for the detection, location, identification, and tracking of cooperative and non-cooperative dark target vessels. The objective is to acquire raw data, processed data, or end-to-end analytics that integrate directly into the existing SeaVision system via AWS S3, RESTful API, or TCP/IP streams. The government is not seeking a new standalone display platform. Technical requirements include the delivery of analytical results such as vessel position and predicted tracks, clear identification of data sources, and a high-level description of the algorithms used. This procurement utilizes a five-step competitive process consisting of a solution brief, pitch, proposal, negotiation, and award. Interested parties are encouraged to submit solution briefs by February 20, 2026, with a final deadline of January 7, 2027. Awards may take the form of FAR-based fixed-price commercial contracts or Prototype Other Transaction agreements, with individual awards not expected to exceed 100 million dollars. Evaluation is based on technical merit, relevance, and price, with technical factors carrying significantly more weight than cost. Contractors handling Controlled Unclassified Information must comply with NIST SP 800-171 cybersecurity standards, and all payments are processed through the Wide Area Workflow system.
