Eligible applicants include domestic entities, with a preference for U.S.-based companies or those operating under the U.S. flag. The program is open to various commercially useful vessel designs, though it specifically excludes small watercraft, recreational vessels, fisheries vessels, and passenger catamarans used for whale-watching. Ideal design teams should adopt a design-build approach, incorporating naval architects, marine engineers, shipyards, and technology providers. Proposals are limited to 20 pages and must include a detailed design integration plan, modeling methodologies, a justifiable budget, and a comprehensive return on investment analysis.
