SUMMARY:IWRP Quarterly Industry Day
DESCRIPTION:Description\nNaval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) and Naval Information Warfare Centers (NIWC) Atlantic and Pacific announce the Information Warfare Research Project (IWRP) Consortium Quarterly Industry Day hosted by ATI—the IWRP Consortium management firm—at the Charleston Gaillard Center on Wednesday\, October 25\, 2023. The event will include a keynote address from Mr. Bradley C. Punch\, PEO Digital deputy technical director; IWRP program and consortium updates; technical briefs; and one-on-one breakout sessions with scheduled IWRP Consortium members. \nTechnical briefs presented during the IWRP Consortium Quarterly Industry Day will include a variety of topics focused on information warfare. It is anticipated that the topics will be the basis of upcoming Requests for Prototype Projects (RPPs) to IWRP Consortium members. This is not an RPP\, but for planning purposes only. A project will not be awarded from this announcement. In order to obtain more information regarding the below projects\, you must be a member of the IWRP Consortium. For more information on becoming an IWRP Consortium member\, please visit https://www.theiwrp.org. The purpose of this announcement is to provide members of the IWRP Consortium and industry in general advanced notification of government intent. \nThe Government anticipates soliciting one (1) Request for Prototype Project (RPP) for white papers\, enhanced white papers or full proposals via N65236-22-9-0001. The RPP topic will include a technical brief and one-on-one breakout sessions. The RPP topic consist of the following: \n1.24-LANT-1954 Tactical Networks Remote Monitoring (TNRM) 3.0: The government is seeking solutions to collect various data types on multiple afloat platforms for the purpose of monitoring a mix of networks\, servers\, storage devices\, virtual machines\, applications\, and configurations. Once collected\, the solution will need to visualize this collected data with dashboards and alerts locally for system administrator use on the afloat platform\, as well as transfer the data over low bandwidth\, high latency links\, also dealing with Denied\, Disrupted\, Intermittent\, and Limited (DDIL) conditions\, to shore for a centralized visualization showing all afloat platforms with the ability to select a single afloat platform and be presented with the specific afloat platform dashboards and alerts. The solution should require minimal-to-no afloat maintenance or system administrator engagement. It should consider the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, system modeling\, and automation technologies as an iterative out year improvement to allow for automated proactive resolution of anomalies identified within afloat systems and networks. \nThe government will be presenting three (3) Pre-Solicitation Collaborations (PSCs)\, which will include a short brief and one-on-one breakout sessions. The PSC topics consist of the following: \n1.MyNavy HR Chatbot: The government is seeking to develop a “chatbot” that leverages large language model (e.g. ChatGPT)\, generating humanlike interaction based on context that triages customers’ HR-related issues and tracks a variety of back-end performance metrics. \n2.Advanced Manufacturing for Electronic Components: NIWC Atlantic anticipates the need to identify and test alternative rapid manufacturing of electronics options due to obsolescence and continued supply chain constraints. The command would like to explore prototype solutions that provide advanced manufacturing capabilities to create circuit card assemblies\, capabilities like additive manufacturing\, and pick and place technology for example. \n3.Modular Cabinet Design: The government is seeking a technical feasibility study (i.e. white paper) for a modular cabinet design that will include cable management recommendations\, rear cabinet maintenance accessibility\, and recommended dimensions based on current “Commercial off the Shelf” Information Technology. The government will provide technical requirements. Based on the given requirements\, the technical feasibility study will provide a recommended integrated engineering solution to a modular cabinet design implementing a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA). \n\nContact Information:\n\n\n\nContracting Office Address\n\n\nCHARLESTON PO BOX 190022\nNORTH CHARLESTON \, SC 29419-9022\nUSA\n\n\n\n\nPrimary Point of Contact\n\n\n\nGiancarlo Dumenigo \n  giancarlo.dumenigo.civ@us.navy.mil \n  Phone Number843-218-2375

SUMMARY:(IWRP) Consortium Industry Day
DESCRIPTION:Description\nNaval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR) and Naval Information  Warfare Centers (NIWC) Atlantic and Pacific announce the Information Warfare Research Project (IWRP) Consortium Quarterly Industry Day hosted by ATI—the IWRP\nConsortium management firm—at the  Charleston Gaillard Center on Wednesday\,  October 25\, 2023. The event will include a keynote address from Mr. Bradley C. Punch\,\nPEO Digital deputy technical director; IWRP program and consortium updates; technical\nbriefs; and one-on-one breakout sessions with scheduled IWRP Consortium members.Technical briefs presented during the IWRP Consortium Quarterly Industry Day will\ninclude a variety of topics focused on information warfare. It is anticipated that the topics will be the basis of upcoming Requests for Prototype Projects (RPPs) to  IWRP Consortium members. This is not an RPP\, but for planning purposes only. A project will not be awarded from this announcement. In order to obtain more information regarding the below projects\, you must be a member of the IWRP Consortium. For more information on becoming an IWRP Consortium member\, please visit https://www.theiwrp.org. The purpose of this announcement is to provide members of the IWRP Consortium and  industry in general advanced notification of government intent. \nThe Government anticipates soliciting three (3) Request for Prototype Projects (RPPs)\nfor  white papers\, enhanced white papers or full  proposals via N65236-22-9-0001. The RPP topics will include a technical brief and one-on-one breakout sessions. The RPP topics consist of the following: \n1.24-LANT-1954 Tactical Networks Remote Monitoring (TNRM) 3.0: The government is seeking solutions to collect various data types on multiple afloat platforms for the purpose of monitoring a mix of networks\, servers\, storage devices\, virtual machines\, applications\, and configurations. Once collected\, the solution will need to visualize this collected data with dashboards and alerts locally for system administrator use on the afloat platform\, as well as transfer the data over low bandwidth\, high latency links\, also dealing with Denied\, Disrupted\, Intermittent\, and Limited (DDIL) conditions\, to shore for a centralized visualization showing all afloat platforms with the ability to select a single afloat platform and be presented with the specific afloat platform dashboards and\nalerts. The solution should require minimal-to-no afloat maintenance or system  administrator engagement. It should consider the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, system modeling\, and automation technologies as an iterative out year improvement to allow for automated proactive resolution of anomalies identified within afloat systems and networks. \n2. 24-PAC-1994 Advanced Airborne Wideband HF Radio System:High-Frequency (HF) communications has been shown to be a powerful and resilient data and voice transport medium useful in obviating the impact caused by SATCOM loss in extremely harsh and/or spectrally contested environments. The Navy’s approach is to establish multi-level high frequency (HF) capabilities and dynamically interoperate them with using a cognitively managed Digital High Frequency Mesh (DHFM) network. Surface implementations have been produced and tested to this effect\, but airborne equivalent capability was not available. This Statement of Work (SOW) will require the contractor to\nmodify/upgrade one of the existing airworthiness qualified HF transceivers to include wideband HF and interfaces for both the cognitive management system and a\nVITA-49.2 WBHF modem. \n3. 24-PAC-1995 Digital HF Mesh (DHFM)  Installation in Airborne Wing-Mounted Pods:\nHigh-Frequency (HF) communications has been shown to be a powerful and resilient data and voice transport medium useful in obviating the impact caused by SATCOM loss in extremely harsh and/or spectrally contested environments. The Navy’s approach is to establish multi-level high frequency (HF) capabilities and dynamically interoperate them with using a cognitively managed Digital High Frequency Mesh (DHFM) network. This Statement of Work (SOW) will require the contractor to install prototyped Digital HF Mesh (DHFM) system products for an airborne qualified HF transceiver into a wing-mounted Pod\, that will then be airworthiness certified in aircraft(s). \nThe government will be presenting three (3) Pre-Solicitation Collaborations (PSCs)\, which will include a short brief and one-on-one breakout sessions. The PSC topics consist of the following: \n1.MyNavy HR Chatbot: The government is seeking to develop a “chatbot” that leverages large language model (e.g. ChatGPT)\, generating humanlike interaction based on context that triages customers’ HR-related issues and tracks a variety of back-end performance metrics. \n2.Advanced Manufacturing for Electronic Components: NIWC Atlantic anticipates the  need to identify and test alternative rapid manufacturing of electronics options due to\nobsolescence and continued supply chain constraints. The command would like to explore prototype solutions that provide advanced manufacturing capabilities to create circuit card assemblies\, capabilities like additive manufacturing\, and pick and place technology for example. \n3.Modular Cabinet Design: The government is seeking a technical feasibility study (i.e. white paper) for a modular cabinet design that will include cable management recommendations\, rear cabinet maintenance accessibility\, and recommended dimensions based on current “Commercial off the Shelf” Information Technology. The government\nwill provide technical requirements. Based on the given requirements\, the technical  feasibility study will provide a recommended integrated engineering solution to a  modular cabinet design implementing a Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA).

The two-hour event will include presenting the project history\, a summary of major work features\, constraints and challenges\, and project delivery methods. A live question and answer session with USACE personnel will immediately follow the presentation. \nThe Government anticipates this procurement to be solicited as a competitive firm fixed priced and fixed-price incentive (successive target) type contract. In addition\, the anticipated acquisition strategy is to utilize the Integrated Design and Construction (IDaC) delivery method. \n“Integrated Design and Construction” is a project delivery method where design and construction are contracted concurrently through two efforts. Specific to this project\, the design (i.e.\, architect-engineer) will be procured under one contract\, with a second contract award being made to a construction contractor. The proposed strategy permits an award of the construction contract early in the project’s development through a competitive process. This early construction contractor involvement enables the selected construction contractor to provide constructability\, cost input\, etc.\, to the Designer of Record as the design progresses. \nThe Government is seeking industry feedback on the IDaC strategy (e.g.\, past/present experience and/or similar commercial practice). \nSUMMARY OF PROJECT SCOPE: \nThe project scope of work consists of construction of a Net-Zero Unaccompanied Personnel Housing Facility at Fort Liberty in North Carolina. The housing facility will provide a new 146 soldier 4-story Barracks meeting the 2021 Army Standard requirements. This barracks will include dwelling units that consist of sleeping quarters with walk-in closets\, kitchen\, living area\, bathroom\, and laundry. Commons areas include a dayroom\, lobby\, Charge of Quarters\, fitness room and vending area. The building exterior wall will utilize materials and products with “low” Global Warming Potential as defined in the Carbon Leadership Forum’s 20 July 2021 Material Baselines reports. The projects include materials such as: Concrete\, Masonry\, Steel\, Aluminum\, Insulation and Cladding. \nAdditional Sustainable features are to include optimal solar orientation and shading\, daylighting\, natural ventilation\, superinsulation\, high performance glazing\, elimination of thermal bridges and increased airtightness of construction. \nATTENDING THE INDUSTRY DAY IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED FOR ALL PROSPECTIVE VENDORS. The industry day is open to the vendor community of prime contractors and significant subcontractors. \nThe Virtual Industry Day Event will take place from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. November 8\, 2023\, Eastern Standard Time via Webex. \nThe link to register in advance for this webinar is: https://usace1.webex.com/weblink/register/r52a174643c56a1007809eb960dd3581b \nThank you for your interest in this USACE project and we look forward to your participation!
