Additional Information on Eligibility:
All responsible sources from academia and industry may submit proposals under this BAA. Historically
Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) and Minority Institutions (MIs) are encouraged to submit
proposals and join others in submitting proposals. However, no portion of this BAA will be set aside for
HBCU and MI participation.
Federally Funded Research & Development Centers (FFRDCs), including Department of Energy
National Laboratories, are not eligible to receive awards under this BAA. However, teaming
arrangements between FFRDCs and eligible principal bidders are allowed so long as they are
permitted under the sponsoring agreement between the Government and the specific FFRDC.
Navy laboratories and warfare centers as well as other Department of Defense and civilian agency
laboratories are also not eligible to receive awards under this BAA and should not directly submit either
white papers or full proposals in response to this BAA. If any such organization is interested in one or
more of the programs described herein, the organization should contact an appropriate ONR POC to
discuss its area of interest. The various scientific divisions of ONR are identified at
http://www.onr.navy.mil/. As with FFRDCs, these types of federal organizations may team with other
responsible sources from academia and industry that are submitting proposals under this BAA.
Teams are also encouraged and may submit proposals in any and all areas. However, Offerors must
be willing to cooperate and exchange software, data and other information in an integrated program
with other contractors, as well as with system integrators, selected by ONR.

Office of Naval Research
Description
ONR is interested in receiving proposals for basic scientific research that will forge major advances in
software, software engineering, networks, cyber-physical systems, social networks and critical
infrastructures, all of which are profoundly interrelated. The research supported under this program will
address new and emerging challenges for the future naval information infrastructure, which is expected
to be a federated enterprise that is highly mobile, extremely heterogeneous, dynamic, non-stop,
large-scale, globally connected, supporting world wide operations, and operating over many different
networks. This infrastructure is vast and extends across networks of interacting systems, defined as
cyber-physical systems for the purposes of this BAA.
