Discussion
CRADAs are authorized under 15
U.S.C. 3710(a).1 A CRADA promotes the
transfer of technology to the private
sector for commercial use, as well as
specified research or development
efforts that are consistent with the
mission of the Federal parties to the
CRADA. The Federal party or parties
agree with one or more non-Federal
parties to share research resources, but
the Federal party does not contribute
funding.
CRADAs are not procurement
contracts. Care is taken to ensure that
CRADAs are not used to circumvent the
contracting process. CRADAs have a
specific purpose and should not be
confused with procurement contracts,
grants, and other type of agreements.
Under the proposed CRADA, the
Coast Guard’s Research and
Development Center (RDC) will
collaborate with one or more nonFederal participants. Together, the RDC
and the non-Federal participants will
evaluate the suitability of WAN
optimization technologies in a
shipboard environment.
We anticipate that the Coast Guard’s
contributions under the proposed
CRADA will include the following:
(1) Develop a test plan for execution
under the CRADA;
(2) Provide network access, data,
facilities, and approvals required for
work under the CRADA;
(3) Collect and analyze test plan data;
and
(4) Develop a report documenting the
methodologies, findings, conclusions,
and recommendations related to this
CRADA work.
We anticipate that the non-Federal
participants’ contributions under the
proposed CRADA will include the
following:
1 The statute confers this authority on the head of
each Federal agency. The Secretary of DHS’s
authority is delegated to the Coast Guard and other
DHS organizational elements by DHS Delegation
No. 0160.1, para. II.B.34.
VerDate Sep<11>2014

(1) Provide WAN optimization
technologies to conduct work to be
described in test plan;
(2) Provide required operators and
technicians to perform work identified
in the test plan;
(3) Provide technical data for the
equipment and services to be utilized;
(4) Provide shipment and delivery of
any equipment required;
(5) Provide travel and associated
personnel and other expenses as
required for subject work.
The Coast Guard reserves the right to
select for CRADA participants all, some,
or no proposals submitted for this
CRADA. The Coast Guard will provide
no funding for reimbursement of
proposal development costs. Proposals
and any other material submitted in
response to this notice will not be
returned. Proposals submitted are
expected to be unclassified and have no
more than five single-sided pages
(excluding cover page, DD 1494, JF–12,
etc.). The Coast Guard will select
proposals at its sole discretion on the
basis of:
(1) How well they communicate an
understanding of, and ability to meet,
the proposed CRADA’s goal; and
(2) How well they address the
following criteria:
(a) Technical capability to support the
non-Federal party contributions
described; and
(b) Resources available for supporting
the non-Federal party contributions
described.
Currently, the Coast Guard is
considering SWISH, for participation in
this CRADA. However, we do not wish
to exclude other viable participants
from this or future similar CRADAs.
This is a technology suitability effort.
The goal of this CRADA is to evaluate
the suitability of implementing WAN
optimization technology in a shipboard
environment. Special consideration will
be given to small business firms/
consortia, and preference will be given
to business units located in the U.S.
This notice is issued under the
authority of 5 U.S.C. 552(a).
Dated: December 17, 2019.

Commanding Officer, U.S. Coast Guard
Research and Development Center.
