NAVSEA's Portfolio Acquisition Executive for Mission Systems wants a contractor for the Navy's Electronic Chart Display and Information System (ECDIS), the electronic navigation charting system for ships and submarines. The work covers building hardware and maintaining software, with deliveries to the Washington Navy Yard. It is a full and open competition planned as one base year plus four option years.
Watch out for
- Full and open competition against large defense firms. There is no set-aside, so a small business competes with larger contractors on a complex hardware and software program.
Full and Open Competitive Solicitation
- Hardware production plus software development. The scope combines manufacturing, integration, testing, fielding and lifecycle sustainment, which takes significant capability and likely security compliance.
