The document outlines a series of responses to inquiries related to the government Request for Proposals (RFP) N61331 25-SN-Q04, focusing on technology solutions for both small and large underwater vessels in various maritime environments. It specifies no required format for responses but suggests a summary of technology capabilities and Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs) would be beneficial. The scope includes interest in both open water and littoral settings and ranges from small unmanned underwater vehicles (UUVs) to larger ones. The document clarifies that while active transmission of inputs is expected, passive electromagnetic concealment (EMCON) solutions will also be considered for comparison. There are currently no airborne systems involved, although future integration across multiple domains may be planned. The inability to share a hypothetical mission profile indicates a level of confidentiality in the RFP process. Overall, the document captures the government’s focus on innovative, adaptable maritime technologies aligned with future operational needs.

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Panama City Division (NSWC PCD) is seeking information regarding embedded autonomy for Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) and Autonomous Surface Vehicles (ASVs) that can operate without human intervention. The focus is on technologies enabling real-time responses to sensor data, featuring capabilities such as obstacle avoidance, dynamic tracking of targets, route replanning, and in-situ task reprioritization. Additionally, AUV and sensor health monitoring as well as optimization for multi-pass and search routes are of interest. Responses are invited from both large and small businesses, with required information including product and technology descriptions, maturity level, and country of origin. Interested parties must submit their responses by November 26, 2024, emphasizing the sensitive nature of the information provided, which will remain confidential without consent. This request is intended solely for planning purposes and does not imply any procurement commitments or compensation for the information gathered.
