The Strategic Systems Programs (SSP) seeks participants for the Next Generation Undersea Security Initiative (NG-USI) to develop prototype technologies across 22 focus areas, including signal mitigation, counter-unmanned systems, and advanced solid rocket motors. The initiative aims to form a sphere of technological excellence from industry and non-profit entities to sustain strategic superiority for Naval Forces. No specific budget amounts or performance location are mentioned in the description. Interested entities must demonstrate technical relevancy in desired focus areas via email to the primary point of contact. Awards will be made under Other Transaction Authority, not standard federal acquisition regulations.
