    The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Navy, has issued a Special Notice for a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) for Aerospace science research. This BAA focuses on weapons and aerospace technologies that directly support naval science and technology requirements for joint strike warfare involving air superiority and precision attack, as well as air and surface battle space requirements of joint littoral aircraft involving aircraft, naval surface fire support, and ship self-defense.

    The Naval Air Warfare Center, Weapons Division (NAWCWD), is seeking proposals for this BAA. However, a formal Request for Proposals (RFP) will not be issued, and NAWCWD will not provide funding for direct reimbursement of proposal development costs. All responsible sources must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database.

    Interested parties must submit written responses by email or mail to the designated points of contact no later than September 30, 2024. Contractors must also be certified through Defense Logistics Information Services (DLIS) to access Controlled Unclassified Information within FBO.

    It is important to note that entities registering in GSA's System for Award Management (SAM) must have a notarized letter on file within 30 days of registration. Failure to comply may result in delays in processing the registration and potential ineligibility for federal assistance opportunities.

    FY24 BROAD AGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT FOR INNOVATIVE ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES AND METHODOLOGIES The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Navy, is seeking innovative environmental technologies and methodologies through a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) issued by the Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NEXWC). This BAA is open for one year from the date of publication and replaces a previous announcement. The purpose of this BAA is to find technologies and methodologies that can reduce environmental impacts from current and past Navy operations. These technologies and methodologies should be new, innovative, advance the state-of-the-art, or increase knowledge or understanding of a technology or methodology. The BAA applies to Navy installations worldwide. The BAA is divided into seven topic areas: Environmental Assessment, Restoration, and Cleanup: Technologies or methodologies to assess and remediate existing pollution generated by military operations, including evaluation of environmental fate and transport, risk reduction, and establishing cleanup goals. Conservation of Natural Resources: Practices to manage operations' impacts, protect rare and endangered species, and comply with environmental legislation. Unexploded Ordnance (UXO): Technologies or methodologies for detecting, locating, de-energizing, disposing, or remediating UXO generated by military operations. Technologies and Methodologies Addressing Emerging Chemicals: Solutions for addressing chemicals detected in global drinking water supplies at trace levels, such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and pharmaceuticals. Environmental Compliance: Process design changes or management practices to facilitate the Navy's compliance with environmental regulatory requirements. Resilient Infrastructure Crucial for Enduring Environmental Protection: Methods, processes, tools, equipment, and facilities to assess and minimize environmental impacts and climate change affecting installation mission readiness. Remote Sensing and Web-Based Data Processing, Modeling, and Reporting of Environmental Data: Use of unmanned aircraft systems and other technologies for monitoring and interpreting environmental data. Interested parties can submit abstracts/white papers specific to one of the topic areas. Abstracts will be evaluated based on relevance and merit by a Government Technical Evaluation Board (TEB) consisting of experts in environmental technology areas. Successful abstracts will be posted on a protected website for DoD use only. When an abstract aligns with a customer need and funding, the NEXWC contracting office may request a full proposal. The evaluation of abstracts will consider technical factors such as scientific/technical merits, qualifications and experience of key personnel, past performance, and cost relative to the proposed approach. Contracts awarded will have an average duration of one to three years. It is important to note that submitting an abstract does not guarantee a contract, and NEXWC reserves the right to select any, all, or none of the proposals received. Offerors must be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM) to be eligible for contract awards. This BAA does not have any solicitation documents other than the submission form, and there is no commitment by the Navy to make any contract awards or be responsible for any expenses incurred by offerors before a contract award.
