Description

a. The research opportunity described in this announcement currently falls under the following sections of FY13 Long Range BAA, ONR BAA13-001:Topic #1 - Powder-Processing of Large Metal Structural Components: Section I, entitled “General Information”, sub-section 6, entitled “Research Opportunity Description”, the “Sea Warfare and Weapons Department (Code 33)” item, paragraph 2), subparagraph b, entitled “Structural Materials”.Topic #2 - Applied Research in Scaling Promising Dielectric Films for Wound Film Capacitors: Section I, entitled “General Information”, sub-section 6, entitled “Research Opportunity Description”, the “Sea Warfare and Weapons Department (Code 33)” item, paragraph 2), subparagraph a, entitled “Functional Materials”.The purpose of this announcement is to focus attention of the scientific community on (1) the areas to be studied, (2) for dialogue amongst those interested in these areas, and (3) the planned timetable for the submission of white papers and proposals.b. Total Amount of Funding Available: Topic #1:ONR plans to fund up to two (2) awards with an approximate value of up to $2,500,000 per award for a total period of performance of 36 months. Although the tools and techniques envisioned to result from this project are of wide utility, ONR expects that focus on a single component or product will impose the inter-tool compatibility and communications necessary for a truly integrated design toolset. For that reason, each proposed project must address the full topic area; must concentrate on the design and manufacture of a relevant component or product of potential military interest; and must include a diverse group of team members with experience in component or product design, along with significant capabilities in powder production and consolidation, process modeling, and materials structure/property relationships consistent with the topic description.Topic #2:ONR plans to fund up to two (2) awards with an approximate value of up to $2,500,000 per award for a total period of performance of 36 months. Each proposed program must address the full topic with team members with significant capabilities in film processing, capacitor design and manufacturing, process modeling, and materials structure/property relationships consistent with the topic description. Although ONR expects the above described program plan to be executed, ONR reserves the right to make changes.c. Anticipated Number of Awards: up to 4. An Offeror may propose on one or both Topics.d. Anticipated Range of Individual Award Amounts: up to $2,500,000 per awarde.
