AI Contract Overview

The Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) is organizing the Research & Experimentation for Local & International Emergency First Responders (RELEIF) event scheduled for May 6-9, 2013, aimed at advancing technologies and capabilities to enhance humanitarian assistance and disaster response (HADR) for both domestic and international scenarios. Sponsored by the Department of Homeland Security, this event seeks to create a collaborative, multi-institutional environment involving federal agencies, academia, industry, and laboratories to explore innovative solutions that address operational challenges faced by agencies such as the Department of Defense and DHS. Participants are invited to submit technology-focused whitepapers, with each submission addressing a single experiment; multiple whitepapers on different technologies can be submitted by the same respondent. Whitepapers must be submitted by April 15, 2013, via the NPS RELIEF website, and are distinct from formal proposals as no contracts or awards will be issued from this solicitation. Selected respondents will be invited to participate in the event, held at the NPS McMillan Field facility on Camp Roberts, California. The NPS will provide venue facilities, infrastructure, and assessment support at no cost, while participants are responsible for their own travel and technology expenses. The venue will supply essential infrastructure such as frequency allocation, power, network access, and collaboration space, but participants are expected to be self-sufficient in conducting their experiments. Reviews of submissions will be conducted by NPS personnel and associated experts to determine participation.

Full Description

The Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) will be hosting a Research & Experimentation for Local & International Emergency First Responders (RELEIF) event on 6-9 May 2013. This event will focus on exploring the potential of new capabilities to address both domestic and international humanitarian assistance & disaster response (HADR) challenges faced by Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Department of Defense (DoD) and the federal entities that support (or are supported by) them. The Department of Homeland Security is the sponsoring entity for this event. This event is being conducted to provide the benefits of a multi-institutional semi-structured learning environment for the HADR community. Companies, educational institutions, laboratories and other organizations are invited to submit whitepapers that may lead to an invitation to participate in the May RELIEF event to be conducted at the NPS McMillan Field facility on Camp Roberts near Paso Robles, California. DO NOT SUBMIT PROPOSALS. SUBMIT TECHNOLOGY EXPLORATION WHITEPAPERS ONLY. All submissions must be received no later than 15 April 2013. No contracts will be awarded based on this announcement or any subsequent supplemental RFI announcements. The submission process will be entirely through the Naval Postgraduate School RELIEF website. Based on a review of submitted proposals select respondents will be invited to participate in the RELIEF event. NPS shall provide venue, supporting infrastructure, and assessment (operational and technical) personnel at no cost to invited respondent(s). Respondent's travel costs and technology experiments will be at the respondent's expense. The RELIEF venue will only supply basic venue infrastructure including frequency allocation, portable power, network access, and TOC/collaboration space. Invited respondents should prepare to be self-sufficient during experimentation and not dependent on venue resources for success. Please visit the RELIEF website (http://www.nps.edu/Academics/Schools/GSOIS/Departments/IS/Research/FX/RELIEF/relief.html) if you wish to submit a white paper. Multiple whitepapers, each addressing a different technology, may be submitted by each respondent. Submissions will be reviewed by RELIEF personnel, support contractors, or NPS faculty, staff, or students. Each whitepaper must address only one experiment.
