The Naval Information Warfare Center, Pacific (NIWC Pacific intends to issue Request for Proposal (RFP) No. N66001-20-R-0024 for engineering services to support the development and sustainment of Navy Information/Application Product Suite (NIAPS) and other selected application hosting, monitoring, modernization, and replication systems/frameworks. NIAPS delivers maintenance, logistics, administrative, training, and management applications to users at sea. NIAPS is designed to maximize the use of limited bandwidth by providing afloat units with access to applications while disconnected from the internet. NIAPS ensures that data between ship and shore remains synchronized throughout the replication of data and applications hosted on NIAPS. NIAPS is a suite of applications and content, integrated together and hosted on a single shipboard server. It can be categorized as a shipboard intranet web-based information system used to support, collect, distribute, and display information in a shipboard environment. NIAPS hosts an intranet that maintains information such as: training courses, maintenance documents, data collection, and morale and welfare information. NIAPS provides content and information to the user during times that network access external to the ship is unavailable. NIAPS will be phased out in the FY20-24 timeframe and will be replaced by other services providing hosting, monitoring, and replication for afloat applications. These services will have to be developed, tested and supported on several different Navy networks. In addition, current Navy applications require modernization to take advantage of these new services. This proposed single award indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) cost-plus-fixed- fee (CPFF) pricing arrangements is the result of the previous Seaport-E task order N00178-14-D-7987-7N01. These requirements are ongoing and are expected to continue into the foreseeable future. The anticipated period of performance is a 5-year ordering period. Orders will be placed pursuant to the ordering process at FAR 16.505(a). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code is 541330 Engineering Services ((Except (a) – Military and Aerospace Equipment and Military Weapons)) and the Small Business Size Standard is $41,500,000. The Product Service Code (PSC) for this contract is J070 "Maintenance, Repair and Rebuilding Of Equipment: Automatic Data Processing Equipment, Software, Supplies and Support Equipment.
