Numerical Weather Prediction Research and Development Notice of Intent to Sole Source

Description: The U.S. Naval Research Laboratory is issuing a Notice of Intent to award a five-year indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity sole-source contract to Science Applications International Corporation for Numerical Weather Prediction research and development. The work covers global and mesoscale modeling, data assimilation, quantum-computing applications, artificial-intelligence and machine-learning integration, coupled atmosphere-ocean-wave modeling, seasonal prediction, tactical products, and lifecycle support. This is not a competitive procurement, but interested firms may submit capability statements by the response deadline.
