Description

NA This is a sources sought market survey intended to determine if there are additional sources for an inertial navigation system called the Modular Azimuth Position System (MAPS) which consists primarily of a Dynamic Reference Unit Hybrid (DRUH) associated c ables and vehicle interface modules. This effort is for the DRUH only which is the inertial navigation unit for the MAPS. PM Firefinder uses the MAPS system to provide radar location (northing, easting) and azimuth orientation while the radars are moving on the battlefield. This requirement is for exercising the first option on an existing contract for upgrading 16 Dynamic Reference Units (DRUs) to the DRU Hybrid (DRUH) configuration. These units are deployed in fielded Firefinder Units and depot locati ons worldwide. In addition it is planned to procure 5 new DRUHs for integration into existing Firefinder radars which do not have the MAPS capability. The MAPS is a major system developed by Honeywell Inc. that meets the Government's performance specific ation requirements. Honeywell has been prequalified and is the Original Equipment Manufacture (OEM) and designer for the MAPS system. Since the MAPS was bought under a performance specification developed by the Government, the Government does not hold th e data rights of the MAPS design. For the requirement under this announcement, the contractor is responsible to insure that the upgraded/repaired MAPS are fully functional without technical input from the Government. The contractor is also required to ob tain technical knowledge of the MAPS to provide engineering service to the Government when requested to include system integration and engineering feasibility studies. In order to be considered responsive to this market survey, a vendor must submit inform ation sufficient for the Government to make a technical assessment of the capabilities of the proposed system. POC is Mr. Dave Williamson, (732) 427-5919.
