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.

Full Description

The National Science Foundation (NSF) intends to issue a Firm Fixed Price Contract Award to a single source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a)(i), Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements on or about September 30, 2024 to the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), Washington, DC. The period of performance will be for twenty-four (24) months. The scope of work requires executing the legislative mandate as set forth in Title IV (BIOECONOMY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT) Section 10405 (External review of ethical, legal, environmental, safety, security, and societal issues) of the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 (Pub.L. 117-167). NSF intends to award this requirement as a sole source contract to NAS. The services sought are those necessary to meet the requirements stated in Section 10405 of the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022. Specifically, NSF will enter into an agreement with the National Academies whereby the Academies will conduct an evaluation of ethical, legal, environmental, safety, security, and other appropriate societal issues related to engineering biology research and development, and to make recommendations on research needs and best means for incorporating consideration of these issues in the development and conduct of research. A Request for Information has not been published via SAM.gov as the legislative mandate precludes such action. The statutory authority permitting other than full and open competition is Title 41 U.S.C. 3304(a) (1), Use of Noncompetitive procedures, as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1 -- Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements. The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 541720, with the size standard of $28M. This notice of intent is not a request for proposals or quotes; however, all responsible sources may submit a quotation and technical capabilities, which, if received within fifteen (15) calendar days of publication of this notice, shall be considered by NSF. All responses must be submitted to the Government point of contact at the email address shown below. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon the responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government.
