Tender Details

Description & Purpose of Request
1.1 Objective
The United States Coast Guard (USCG) is conducting market research in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10 to identify commercially available off-the-shelf (COTS) and Non-Developmental Item (NDI) core maritime navigation software solutions that have the capability of being enhanced to meet USCG requirements (e.g. EAIS IDD).

1.2 Purpose & Scope of Market Inquiry
The Coast Guard seeks insight into the current commercial and naval navigation software, including cutting-edge display engines, autonomous voyage planning, sensor fusion, resilient Positioning, Navigation, and Timing (PNT), and modern software architectures (e.g., modular open systems, containerized microservices, cross-platform runtimes).
The Government intends to assess software suites that can match or exceed the complete operational baseline of current USCG E-NAV capabilities while remaining flexible, open, and capable of integrating seamlessly into existing USCG shipboard hardware configurations without requiring complete bridge refits.
