## Description

The Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) is issuing a Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) authorized by the Department of Defense (DoD) Class Deviation 2022-O0007.

Under a CSO, the ERDC may competitively award proposals received in response to a general solicitation, similar to a Broad Agency Announcement (BAA), to acquire innovative commercial products, technologies, or services based on a review of solutions by scientific, technological, or other subject matter expert peers within the ERDC. “Innovative,” for CSO purposes, means any new technology, process, or method, including research and development (R&D), or any new application of an existing technology, process, or method.

Under this CSO, all products, technologies, and services shall be treated as commercial items; products, technologies, and services do not have to be “commercially available” to be submitted in response to this solicitation. If the solution meets the requirements of the regulation, the solution is treated as commercial whereby the Contracting Officer will utilize commercial procedures to develop and execute the resultant award.

The ERDC, Environmental Laboratory (EL) seeks expert technical support and demonstration of scalable freshwater Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB) prevention, detection, and management technologies.

The goal of this effort is to identify solutions capable of reducing the severity and frequency of HABs impacting US Army Corps of Engineers water resource development projects and other freshwaters across the Nation as authorized in The Water Resources Development Act (WRDA) of 2020, Section 128. Go to https://www.erdcwerx.org/harmful-algal-bloom-demonstration-program/ for all of the CSO details and submission requirements. All solutions must be submitted via the ERDCWERX platform. Solutions for the general areas of interest will be accepted on an open continuous basis through 10 May 2024.
