Naval Surface Warfare Center, Corona Division (NSWCCO) has released a solicitation to establish the Leveraging Enterprise Technologies for Holistic AI, Logistics, Integration, Transformation, and Yield (LETHALITY) Consortium. This consortium-based Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) is intended to engage industry and academia to develop and mature innovative solutions to address current and future security threats in the surface and maritime environments.
In preparing to respond to this solicitation, Advanced Technology International (ATI) is building the consortium, starting with this invitation to current members of ATI-managed consortia covering similar technologies. Our goal is to build a consortium of premier traditional and non-traditional government contractors, small and large businesses, for-profit and not-for-profit entities, and academic organizations to perform R&D prototyping efforts in the technology areas listed in the NSWCCO solicitation. Complete details regarding this opportunity can be found in the Leveraging Enterprise Technologies for Holistic AI, Logistics, Integration, Transformation, and Yield solicitation.
We are excited to announce there is no cost for your organization to join the consortium, nor do we require exclusivity!

This includes advanced design and implementation of secure, resilient, and scalable network solutions supporting critical naval operations across diverse environments. Key focus areas include software-defined networking, network function virtualization, advanced routing and switching protocols, zero-trust architectures, and the integration of next-generation wireless and satellite communication systems. This area also encompasses the development of robust and adaptable infrastructure solutions, including enterprise data centers, cloud computing environments, and tactical edge networks. Research and prototyping efforts may include optimizing network performance, enhancing cybersecurity posture through advanced threat detection and mitigation, and ensuring seamless interoperability across various platforms and domains. Emphasis is placed on automation, predictive analytics for network management, and the development of tools for rapid deployment and configuration of secure network infrastructure to meet evolving mission requirements.
Research, development, demonstration, test, and evaluation of tools, techniques, procedures, and processes that expand the state of the art in cyber warfare, cyber engineering practices, and system security engineering practices throughout the system lifecycle. This includes advanced offensive and defensive applications, technologies (anti-tamper, supply chain risk management, hardware and software, microcode to application layer), and tools supporting vulnerability assessment and adversarial assessment (such as red team) cyber initiatives in all aspects.
Boundary extension of ‘big data’ analysis tools used for data classification, clustering, dimensionality reduction, predictive analysis, visualization, and forensic analysis of streaming data. Research may include artificial intelligence/autonomy/deep learning for statistical pattern recognition, vehicle control, semantic reasoning, and cyber defense. Research may include threat assessment and enhancement of RF monitoring, and recording/analysis. Consider advanced Viz concepts for augmented reality, and personnel training/readiness.
Research, development, demonstration, and exploitation of tools, techniques, and procedures that expand the state of the art in software engineering practices, advanced computing and computation, and heterogeneous/homogenous computing environments throughout the system lifecycle. This includes hardware and software architecture and design, formal verification tools and techniques, algorithmic development and design, clustering/high availability computing stacks, compiler technologies, software assurance tools, automatic code generation, networking tools and the necessary hardware and software to improve the state of the art in the field of computation and advanced computing.
Research, development, demonstration, and analysis of alternatives associated with virtualization technologies, including hardware abstraction techniques (hypervisors) and operating environment abstraction techniques (containers). Virtualization solutions to include dynamic resource allocation, cyber resilience, real-time performance assessment, heterogeneous hypervisor deployment, and incorporation of service-oriented concepts. Prototype efforts to include execution of hardware and software solutions that meet a wide range of Navy needs for both laboratory variations, portable, and shipboard environments.
