CLIN Description QTY UoM 0001 Autonomous Vehicle Water Survey System 1 Each in Accordance With the Minimum Specifications (Attached) Firm Fixed Price (FFP) 0002 Shipping Charges (if applicable) 1 Lot FFP (vi) Description of requirements for the items to be acquired: The Naval Undersea Warfare Center, Division Newport, Code 70 Waterside Security Program requires an autonomous system meeting the minimum specifications (see Attachment) to collect environmental information, specifically conductivity, temperature, and depth (CTD) of water. The Code 70 Waterside Security Program focuses on the defense of critical assets in ports, harbors, and along the shoreline. In support of the U.S. Navy, the Waterside Security Program develops anti-threat measures in a littoral and near-shore area. The Waterside Security Program utilizes a Waterside Security System (WaSS) to meet this objective. In order to provide the most accurate data to aid in decisions, the WaSS must be able to retrieve environmental information, such as water CTD. The ability to acquire a small (<1 m length, <20 lbs.), man-portable and man-deployable autonomous vehicle system is critical for a seamless integration into the WaSS. A group capability using at least three vehicles allows for three simultaneous CTD measurements, thereby providing more extensive coverage and more efficient data collection of the water space. The autonomous capability will allow environmental data to be collected without boat operation, thereby saving costs. (vii) Date(s) and place(s) of delivery and acceptance and FOB point.
