The Air Force Research Laboratory, Aerospace Systems Directorate (AFRL/RQ) is seeking information on approaches to effectiveness-based military capability development (EBMCD). EBMCD is the process of finding an optimal integrated system
(or system-of-systems) solution that best accomplishes an engagement, mission effect, or campaign goal. It merges two concepts, operational analysis (OA) and system-level physics-based multidisciplinary analysis and design optimization (MDAO). Specific
interest is EBMCD for integrated OA at the mission level along with airframe, propulsion, and power & thermal management systems. Multi-fidelity (low, medium, high) physics based analysis and coupling for the design of integrated airframe, propulsion, and power & thermal management system disciplines is a key underlying attribute supporting the EBMCD vision. Additional attributes of this activity are an emphasis on integrating military utility analysis at the mission level richly within a system design process, increasing the number of system disciplines captured simultaneously in design, and significantly elevating the coupled physics fidelity captured across system disciplines. An ability to rapidly iterate on requirements with mission-driven system-level designs is of interest and is anticipated to engage a wide range of digital engineering and technical disciplines.

Email responses and any questions to Charity Mansfield at charity.a.mansfield@usace.army.mil. This is NOT a Request for Proposal and does not constitute any commitment by the Government.  Responses to this sources sought notice will be used by the Government to make appropriate acquisition decisions. All interested sources must respond to future solicitation announcements separately for responses to this market survey.

NOTICE: The following information is provided for situational awareness and is not required to respond to this Sources Sought.

All contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (www.SAM.gov) prior to award of a contract. All proposed contractors are highly encouraged to review FAR Clause 52.232-33 Payments by Electronic Funds Transfer – System for Award Management, which indicates “All payments by the Government under this contract shall be made by electronic funds transfer (EFT).” Those not currently registered can obtain registration by going to the website http://www.SAM.gov. The process can usually be completed from 24 to 48 hours after submission. Contractors will need to obtain a Unique Entity Identifier (formerly DUNS number) for processing their registration. If you do not already have a Unique Entity Identifier, one can be obtained from http://www.SAM.gov. Refer to www.SAM.gov for information formerly found in CCR, EPLS, ORCA and FedReg.

Please begin the registration process immediately in order to avoid delay of the contract award should your firm be selected.

ALERT: You must submit a notarized letter appointing the authorized Entity Administrator before your registration will be activated. This requirement now applies to both new and existing entities. Effective 29 April 2018, the notarized letter process is now mandatory on all CURRENT registrants at SAM who have a requirement to update data on their SAM record.  The notarized letter is mandatory and is required before the GSA Federal Service Desk (FSD) will activate the entity's registration. 

Effective 29 June 2018, vendors creating or updating their registration can have their registration activated prior to the approval of the required notarized letter.  However, the signed copy of the notarized letter must be sent to the GSA Federal Service Desk (FSD) within 30 days of activation or the vendor risks no longer being active in SAM.

Vendors can check whether an account is active by performing a query by their CAGE or Unique Entity Identifier. The new registration process may now take several weeks, so vendors are highly encouraged to begin registering as soon as possible to avoid any possible delays in future contract awards. Remember, there is no cost to use SAM.

To find out additional information about the changes of the SAM registration process, contractors should visit the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) link located at the top of the SAM homepage (www.sam.gov).

INTENT TO SOLE SOURCE

The United States Air Force, AFLCMC/PZIBA, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio 45433-5344. This is a synopsis published for informational purposes only. This proposed action is for the evaluation and assessment of the Air Force Institute of Technologies’ (AFIT) engineering and applied science academic programs based on professional society criteria for program re-accreditation. Program evaluators from industry and academic, led by a team chair, will comprise the team of nine people whose task is to perform the evaluation. The Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 13-106-1(b)(1) resulting in a firm fixed price contract.  

This proposed procurement will be a Sole Source under North American Industry Classification System Code (NAICS) 611310. Size standard is $34.5 Million. 

The proposed source is Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET), Inc., 415 N Charles St., Baltimore, MD, 21201-4405. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotations. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, quotation or exception to the intent to purchase on a sole source basis, which shall be considered by the Government if received within five (5) days of this notice. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement.

In order to comply with FAR 5.207(c)(15), the reason for lack of competition is as follows:  ABET is the only organization in the U.S. that accredits engineering and applied science programs at post-secondary institutions. No other entities provide such national and international accreditation of engineering programs.

The Department of Defense (DoD) has determined the System for Award Management (SAM) to be the single DoD registration for contractors who conduct business or who are interested in conducting business with the DoD.  Contractors must be registered in SAM prior to award for contracts issued after 29 May 2012.  You may contact SAM at 866-606-8220. SAM website:  www.SAM.gov

Be advised that all correspondence sent via e-mail shall contain a subject line that reads “FA8601-25-Q-0018 ABET Annual Maintenance.” Note that e-mail filters at Wright-Patterson AFB are designed to filter e-mails without subject lines or with suspicious subject lines or contents (i.e., .exe, or .zip files).  Therefore, if this subject line is not included, the e-mail may not get through the e-mail filters.  Also, be advised that .zip or .exe files are not allowable attachments and may be deleted by the e-mail filters at Wright-Patterson AFB.  If sending attachments with e-mail ensure only .PDF, .doc, or .xls documents are sent.  The e-mail filter may delete any other form of attachments.
