Quick Summary
The Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) Atlantic, under the Department of the Navy, has issued a Solicitation (Area of Interest N6523626RE033) seeking solutions for Value and Decision Capability. This opportunity aims to improve strategic communication and demonstrate the importance, progress, and return on investment of complex Naval Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDTE) projects to diverse stakeholders. Responses are due February 26, 2026.
Scope of Work
The NIWC Atlantic faces persistent challenges in communicating the strategic importance, progress, and return on investment (ROI) of its complex RDTE projects to a diverse set of critical stakeholders, including DOW/DON leadership, Fleet operators, Congressional authorizers, and industry partners. Failure to establish a common operational picture leads to budgetary uncertainty, delays in fielding critical warfighting capabilities, and hinders joint operations. This Area of Interest (AOI) seeks a comprehensive solution that will demonstrate a shared understanding of risks, foster faster adoption of critical new capabilities, and create opportunities for rapid and strategic collaboration. The solution should leverage human-centric communications to improve organizational effectiveness and alignment, as traditional government communication methods are deemed insufficient to convey the nuance and urgency of the mission.
