- Description
- This is not a notice for a solicitation. This is not a Request for Proposal or Request for Whitepapers. This is a Special Notice to advise interested parties of opportunities under an existing Consortium Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) for Prototype Projects under 10 U.S.C. 2371b. The Army Contracting Command - New Jersey (ACC-NJ), on behalf of the current Department of Defense Ordnance Technology Consortium (DOTC) Enterprise, has an established Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) with the (National Armaments Consortium) for use by the Department of Defense (DoD) and its Departments that have a need to perform coordinated research and development prototype projects designed to enhance mission effectiveness and to develop and mature ordnance technologies. "Ordnance" is the defined as the ammunition, armaments, munitions, weapons, systems and related military materiel, such as equipment and components, that enablers the military to achieve combat and mission effectiveness in all warfare environments: air, land, sea, undersea and space. The Government, in conjunction with the Consortium, focuses on twelve (12) Technology Areas: Ammunition: Technologies, systems, and materials, such as bullets, cases, projectiles, primers, and semi-fixed components that are shot from weapons. This includes but is not limited to: Small Caliber; Medium Caliber; Large Caliber; Non-Lethal Ammo; Mortars; Grenades; and Logistics. Demilitarization: Technologies, systems, and materials related to the recycle, recovery, re-use, or reduction of munitions, weapons, and ammunition from DoD inventory. This includes but is not limited to: Disassembly of Munitions; Munitions Recycle, Recovery, and Re-Use; Munitions Destruction and Final Disposition; Removal of Energetic Materials from Munitions; Waste Stream Treatment; and Disposal Logistics. Enabling Technologies: Technologies that are relevant, enable or compliment armaments or weapon systems for the DoD. This includes but is not limited to: Materials; Manufacturing and Process Technologies; Modeling and Simulation and Virtual Prototyping; Power Sources; Weaponization; Autonomous Systems; Soldier Weapon Performance; Ordnance-related Energy Efficiency Technologies; Ordnance-related Environmental Technologies; and other Armaments Technology Enablers. Energetic Materials: Materials with high levels of stored chemical energy that can be released. This includes but is not limited to: Explosives; Propellants; Pyrotechnics; Ingredients; and Additive Manufacturing for Energetic Materials. Fuzes: Components and component technologies that enable improved munition capability with higher reliability in support of warheads and munitions, for all the services' weapons against the appropriate array of targets. This includes but is not limited to: Hard Target Fuzing Technologies; Tailorable Effects Fuze Technologies; High Reliability Fuze Technologies; Enabling Fuze Technologies; Safe & Arm Fuzes; MEMS; Fuze Producibility; High G-Force; and Fuze Sensors. Joint Insensitive Munitions: Components and component technologies that enable improved munition capability with higher reliability in support of warheads and munitions for all the services' weapons against the appropriate array of targets. This includes but is not limited to: High Performance Missile Propulsion; Minimum Signature Missile Propulsion; Blast Fragment Warheads; Anti-Armor Warheads; Gun Propulsion; and System Level Demonstration. Protection and Survivability: Technologies, components, systems and materials at the Unit and System level that provide the ability to detect, disable, survive, and/or defeat, and to determine the threat that enemy weapon systems pose. This includes but is not limited to: Threat Detection and Tracking; Countermeasures, Counter Countermeasures & Anti-Tamper; IED Detection and Destruction Technology; Explosive Ordnance Disposal; Armament Survivability; Equipment Survivability; Demolitions; Active and Passive Armors; and related technologies to mitigate blast, projectile, fragment, acceleration, thermal, and other battle damage mechanisms. Rockets, Missiles and Bombs: Objects or weapons, and related technologies, that are launched, dropped, self-propelled (guided or unguided) or otherwise projected to strike long, medium, or short range targets. The following categories include guidance and control, propulsion, ballistics, materials, and logistics: Air-to-Air; Air-to-Surface; Surface-to-Air; Surface-to-Surface; and Shoulder Launched. Warheads/Lethal Mechanisms: Technologies, components, systems, and materials that are intended to destroy a target. This includes but is not limited to: Shaped Charge/Explosively Formed Penetrator; Kinetic Energy; Multipurpose; and Unitary. Weapon Systems: Weapons, weapon systems, components and related technologies to include targeting and fire control. This includes but is not limited to: Machine Guns; Grenade Launchers; Medium Caliber Cannons; Mortars; Large Caliber Artillery; Non-lethal Weapons, Mechanisms, and Effects; Fire Control; Accessories; Enablers; Electric Weapons; Area Denial and Joint Service Small Arms Program (JSSAP). Sensors and Sensor Systems: Technologies, components, systems, and materials supporting the entire kill chain (target detection, identification, classification, tracking, engagement, and battle damage assessment) that are related to armaments, warheads, bombs, missiles, seekers, precision guidance and control, and weapon systems. This includes but is not limited to: Multispectral (radar, LIDAR, EO/IR, laser, and other optical and radio frequency approaches); Data Processing and Data Links; Tactical Cyber; Electronic Warfare; GPS Denied; Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance; and Command, Control, and Networking. Directed Energy Warfare Systems: Technologies, components, systems, and materials that produce lethal, less-than-lethal, and anti-materiel effects in a broad range of targets and tactical environments. This includes but is not limited to: all parts of the electro-magnetic spectrum (Electro-optic, Radio Frequency, Microwave); magnetism; acoustic; particle beam; thermal; and other technologies which may emerge which differ from conventional kinetic and energetic modalities. Applications may be offensive as well as defensive and include man-portable, crew-served, and combat systems on a variety of land, air, sea, sub-surface, and space platforms. Possible requirements solicited under this OTA encompass activities that span all phases of acquisition as described in the DODI 5000.02. Interested parties who would like to participate in the Government's opportunities that are solicited under the OTA can be directed to http://www.nac-dotc.org/ to obtain membership information on joining the Consortium. Companies that are part of the Academia, US Defense Industrial base as well as new and emerging non-traditional defense contractors and are encourage to join the NAC to support DOTC and participate in Federally-funded R&D projects.
