Description

The Department of Energy, specifically the Fluor Marine Propulsion office, is soliciting proposals for the development of Touch Screen Tactile Enhancements aimed at improving training for Navy sailors. The objective is to create technologies that enhance tactile feedback for touch screen-based training panels, which currently lack the physical interaction and muscle memory provided by traditional hardware panels. This initiative is crucial for maintaining operational fleet readiness and reducing costs associated with physical training panels. Interested suppliers must submit their technical proposals, including a one-page Quad Chart and a narrative of up to five pages, by the specified deadline to Jon Ruffley at Jonathan.Ruffley@unnpp.gov. A pre-proposal conference will be held for inquiries, and confidentiality regarding proposal content is emphasized.
