Notice of Intent To Award Sole Source WHOI REMUS Support
The Naval Undersea Warfare Center Division Newport plans a sole-source CPFF and cost-only IDIQ contract with Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution for research, development, engineering, and technical services supporting Navy REMUS autonomous underwater vehicles and advanced undersea communications. Work includes assessing, upgrading, modernizing, and deploying REMUS systems and communications subsystems for submarines and surface ships, with about 113,000 labor hours anticipated over five years. The notice cites WHOI proprietary technology as its sole-source rationale, states it is not a request for competitive proposals, and invites capability statements, proposals, or quotations by the response deadline pending a later solicitation.
