NIWC Atlantic, within the Department of the Navy, is issuing a Commercial Solutions Opening through its Rapid Capabilities Cell to acquire innovative commercial products and services that can address emergent fleet needs and accelerate delivery of capabilities. The effort supports rapid assessment, solution curation for technology gaps, and rapid prototyping for integrated information warfare capabilities across warfighting domains. It is aimed at new or developmental technological solutions under a general solicitation authority, with individual Areas of Interest to be posted separately rather than responses being accepted against the continuous announcement itself. Update 0004 adds that AOI postings and proposal submissions will use the Vulcan platform, and the listed contact is Jessie Rehwoldt at jessie.m.rehwoldt.civ@us.navy.mil.

Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic?s mission is to conduct research, development, prototyping, engineering, test and evaluation, installation, and sustainment of integrated information warfare capabilities and services across all warfighting domains with an emphasis on Expeditionary Tactical Capabilities and Enterprise IT and Business Systems in order to drive innovation and warfighter information advantage. To achieve these mission imperatives, NIWC Atlantic has established the Rapid Capabilities Office (RCO) to act as a change agent to rapidly assess and accelerate the delivery of capabilities to address emergent fleet needs. To accelerate the adoption of advanced technology, curate solutions to technology gaps, and lead rapid prototyping NIWC Atlantic issues this RCO Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) as authorized by 10 U.S.C. 3458 for the acquisition of innovative commercial products or commercial services through the use of a general solicitation. Interested parties with new/developmental technological solutions are highly encouraged to follow this CSO (N65236-26-S-0001) in Sam.gov that will be used to post future Areas of Interest (AOI) for which the Government seeks solutions. Please note that responses against this continuously open CSO announcement will not be accepted. Individual Areas of Interest will be posted against this CSO that interested parties can submit technical solutions against.

NIWC Atlantic seeks to prototype a rapidly deployable, integrated, and scalable solution capable of transforming raw data from diverse sources ? including Unmanned Systems(UxS), sensors, and intelligence feeds ? into actionable insights, fostering decision advantage for multiple services, partners and allies operating across multiple domains. To maintain a decisive advantage in a rapidly evolving threat landscape, we are seeking to optimize our IT infrastructure and development methodologies. The objective is to enhance our capacity for real-time data handling, enable seamless global data federation, and accelerate the integration of AI/ML-enabled decision support. This will improve the speed at which new capabilities are validated and deployed to support mission effectiveness.
