The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport (NUWCDIVNPT) Undersea Weapons, Vehicles, and DefensiveSystems Department, Code 85, has overall responsibility for the development and maintainability of undersea defense systems. This effort is to review all requirements specifications, develop a complete test matrix, and identify which test requirements are not met by the existing test set. The contractor will then identify the hardware and software modifications required to add the additional test capability and develop a report detailing those modifications and their associated cost. NUWCDIVNPT intends to award a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) purchase order on a sole source basis to Bloomy Controls Inc. (CAGE Code 1ZG80) under the authority of FAR 6.302.

If this effort were transitioned to a different manufacturer, that company would need to spend significant effort and cost to gain an understanding of the existing test sets’ capabilities, hardware, and software before they could begin the assessment of the modifications required.
