REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) Anticipated Product Service Code (PSC): R425 Support: Professional Engineering/Technical TITLE: Marine Handling Systems (MHS) THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION. There is no solicitation available at this time. This Request for Information (RFI) is to identify sources, technical approaches and existing solutions capable of delivering a Marine Handling System (MHS). This request is published for information, planning and Market Research purposes only for the anticipated requirement with the anticipated North American Industry Classification (NAICS) code of 541330, Exception 3, Marine Engineering and Naval Architecture Services, and SBA assigned size standard of $47.0M. The Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) is seeking information and qualified sources capable of providing engineering and design services in support of production, integration, and sustainment of existing and new shipboard heavy load handling systems.
Work may be conducted at various locations worldwide (continental U.S., CONUS, and outside continental U.S., OCONUS). KEY REQUIREMENTS Existing capabilities of particular interest for this solicitation include: proven production quality control processes; test planning to include technical verification of engineering concepts, objectives, and thresholds that go beyond operational readiness; control engineering support to include system design and development of new systems as well as sustainment of existing systems; mechanical and structural finite element analysis; and holistic system sustainment management. The Government is interested in the existing capacity of firms/teams to support multiple simultaneous task orders while still meeting the requirements of the contract for prime contractor performance. This includes capacity to concurrently support more than two production task orders for full handling systems with multiple subsystems in addition to sustainment and design task orders. The Government is also interested in potential capacity using innovative approaches to meet requirements. This includes capacity to meet the breadth of labor categories across several engineering and technical disciplines. OTHER INFORMATION It is anticipated that any future award would have a duration of five years from the date of an initial contract award. A minimum guarantee of $10,000 for the entire contract term, including option years, will be satisfied by the award of an initial Task Order. Multiple Task Orders may be awarded with similar delivery schedules requiring the firm to provide services with overlapping work/delivery dates. Individual Task Orders are expected to range, on average, between $300,000 and $3,000,000. The purpose of this Request for Information is to identify interested/qualified sources. RESPONSE INSTRUCTIONS The Government welcomes all inputs, suggestions, and approaches from firms on how these requirements and capabilities can be met under a new contract or any feedback regarding a current contract that could possibly meet this requirement. Specifically, EXWC seeks input with regards to the following in addition to any other areas identified by your firm: -What barriers or opportunities exist to engage the necessary subject matter experts from industry and academia and how can those barriers be overcome? -What should be considered to encourage full participation and contribution of organizations and individuals (e.g., outreach efforts and innovative partnerships) in performance of this requirement? -How will your firm/team support EXWC in our mission to drive better technical solutions and innovative approaches to the design, production, and sustainment of handling systems? -How can EXWC communicate a better understanding of the technical requirements to increase competition and broaden and diversify its partner base at the prime and subcontractor levels? -What experience does your firm have with tools, programs, and/or best practices to support the technical requirements of this notification and what other tools might your firm and EXWC benefit from? - Feedback on recommended Contract Type (i.e. FFP, Cost Reimbursable) - Feedback on new or existing Contract Vehicle (existing vehicle, Multiple Award Contract, Single Award) - Feedback on whether this contract is suitable for Seaport-NxG. Please include reasons why or why not, and if the firm would propose on Seaport-NxG. - Feedback on recommended NAICS code - Feedback on recommended CLIN structure - Duration to Completion (i.e. 60 months) - Feedback on industry standards on price proposal templates, content, or cost elements At a minimum, provide the following information in your submittal: 1) Name and address of company and contact information/point of contact. 2) Statement of whether your company is / is not currently a SeaPort-NxG contract holder. 3) CAGE code and Unique Entity ID (UEI). 4) Only a single brief statement of qualifications (not to exceed seven [7] total pages) is requested to include any information that clearly demonstrates your capabilities, expertise, and experience to perform and manage the requirements.

If you are responding as any other business or teaming entity, please identify the entity and the business size under the NAICS code, if known (eg: Partnership, Joint Venture, LLC).

The Government will neither award a contract solely on the basis of this Request for Information nor will it reimburse the respondent for any costs associated with preparing or submitting a response to this notice or any follow-up information requests. This Request for Information does not constitute a Request for Quotation (RFQ), Request for Proposal (RFP), or an Invitation for Bid (IFB), and is not to be considered as a commitment by the Government for any purpose other than market research, nor does this issuance restrict the Government’s acquisition approach. Respondents will not be notified of the results of the evaluation. The Government recognizes that proprietary data may be a part of your submittal. If so, clearly mark such restricted or proprietary data and present it as an addendum to the non-restricted/non-proprietary information.
