Network Integration Engineering Facility (NIEF) Production

The Department of the Navy, Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC), Pacific intends to issue solicitation No. N66001-19-R-0121 for rapid design and integration of COTS/GOTS products for military applications, Environmental Qualification Testing (EQT) services and Limited/Full Rate Production (LRIP/FRP) including basic research, end-to-end system design, prototype development, systems engineering, integration, production, software loading, pre-installation testing and checkout (PITCO), deployment, and life cycle support of Command, Control, Communications, Computer (C4), Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) systems. Major programmatic and technical thrusts are directed toward merging advanced technology and a variety of Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) and Government Off-the-Shelf (GOTS) hardware and software into various C4ISR system variants and configurations, primarily supporting joint C4ISR and Cybersecurity needs of the military. While most of this work addresses the Navy's requirements, the Marine Corps, Air Force, Army, and Coast Guard programs are also actively supported. Other government agencies, such as the Department of Homeland Security, frequently call on our C4ISR expertise.
