- Description
- The Multi-sensor Command and Control Aircraft (MC2A) Program Office intends to acquire the weapon system integration (WSI) for the MC2A through a sole source contract to Northrop Grumman Corporation, Integrated Systems, Airborne Ground Surveillance and Battle Management Systems (AGS & BM), 2000 West NASA Blvd, PO BOX 9650, Melbourne, FL 32902 -9650 in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2304 (c) (1). This is not a request for competitive proposals and no solicitation is available. All interested sources must respond in writing with clear and convincing evidence to support their ability to provide the capability within fifteen (15) days of this publication. A determination by the Government not to complete this action based on responses received is solely within the discretion of the Government. The scope of this contract will be for the integration of a modular, scalable MP-RTIP Radar and a Battle Management Command, Control, Communications & Computer and Intelligence (BMC4I) node on a Boeing 767-400ER test bed. The MP-RTIP 2D-AESA Sensor forms the basis for the advanced technology, state-of-the-art airborne ground surveillance radars that will be exploited through advanced BMC4I integration. The MP-RTIP Radar is currently on contract with Northrop Grumman Corporation. The BMC4I node will be competitively selected by the government and subsequently directed as a subcontract to the WSI contract. The test bed will be purchased on a separate contract. The Government intends to award the MC2A Weapon System Integration contract on a sole source basis to Northrop Grumman Corp. Offerors will be provided 30 days to respond to the solicitation. An Ombudsman has been appointed to address concerns from offerors or potential offerors during the proposal development phase of this acquisition. The Ombudsman does not diminish the authority of the program director or contracting officer, but communicates contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate Government personnel. When requested, the Ombudsman shall maintain strict confidentiality as to the source of the concern. The Ombudsman does not participate in the evaluation of proposals or in the source selection process. Interested parties are invited to call Colonel Jerry T. Corley, Director, Commander's Staff at (781) 377-5106. Additional program information can be obtained from the Hanscom Electronic Resources Bulletin Board (HERBB) at www.herbb.hanscom.af.mil.
