The Department of Defense is conducting a sources sought notice to gauge vendor interest and gather information on commercial practices for multi-colored Ground to Air Signals designed to identify and communicate the status of isolated persons in open ocean environments. This effort seeks to leverage commercial products that increase maritime visibility through the integration of SAR reflectors for all-weather signaling, IR-impregnated materials for day and night capability, and multicolored panels to improve identification accuracy for panchromatic and multispectral sensors. Additionally, the government is interested in adjustable towed signals that utilize a stop-light style system to communicate critical health and resource status to recovery planners. This opportunity is a total small business set-aside under NAICS code 334511 and is managed by the W7N5 Uspfo Activity Vaang 192 based at Langley AFB, Virginia. It is important to note that this notice is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a formal request for quotation or a commitment by the government. Interested vendors were requested to provide voluntary information by the response deadline of August 4, 2023.
