The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD) has a requirement for a Viscous Vortex Particle Method (VVPM) add-on module for Flightlab software. The NAICS code is 541519 and the business size is 27.5 million.

The proposed purchase order is being solicited on a sole-source basis to Advanced Rotorcraft Technology, Inc. The proposed action is for VVPM add-on module, for which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source pursuant to FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii).
