If needed, please contact Eric Enes, at (843) 218-4828 or Don Hilyer at (619) 524-2310 for assistance with JTRS-M/F Industry Information VPO registration. Interested parties can access additional information regarding the SPAWAR VPO sites by clicking on ?VPO FAQs? or ?VPO Demo? at the SPAWAR VPO Homepage. At this time, the Cluster 3 Program Office does not intend to have further Industry One-on-One discussions before the final Cluster 3 Request for Proposal release. This includes Networking One-on-One discussions that were proposed during the June 2003 Industry Day. Upon further consideration, the Cluster 3 Program Office has decided to not hold these Networking One-on-One sessions. The Cluster 3 Program Office does, however, desire to continue sharing and exchanging information with Industry. Instead of verbal exchanges and One-on-One meetings with Industry representatives and potential Cluster 3 offerors, the Cluster 3 Program Office will utilize the JTRS-M/F II VPO to facilitate an open interchange of information between the Government and Industry. The Cluster 3 Program Office requests all Industry comments, concerns, and questions be provided in writing to Mark Lopez, the JTRS-M/F Procurement Contracting Officer (PCO), by mail at Commander, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command, 4301 Pacific Highway, San Diego, CA 92110-3127, Attn: Mark Lopez, Code 02-33 or by e-mail at mark.lopez@navy.mil. All written inquiries to the Cluster 3 Program Office marked as ?Proprietary? will be given due regard. For all questions or comments pertinent to the preparation of proposals, however, the Government reserves the right to post the Cluster 3 response after properly sanitizing the answer by removing all proprietary information. Cluster 3 Program Office responses to all written inquiries marked ?Non-proprietary? will be posted on the JTRS-M/F II VPO. Written inquiries to the Cluster 3 Program Office that are not marked ?Proprietary? or ?Non-Proprietary? will be treated as non-proprietary information. If a potential offeror feels the need for a verbal information exchange with the Cluster 3 Program Office, this exchange must be coordinated through the Cluster 3 PCO at commercial telephone (619) 524-7168. All inquiries to the Cluster 3 Program Office will be redirected to the Mr. Lopez. THIS NOTICE IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. The anticipated release date of the official JTRS-M/F Cluster 3 Request for Proposals is in the summer 2003, with contract award anticipated for first quarter calendar year 2004. The Government will not pay for any materials provided in response to this announcement and submittals will not be returned to the sender. (end)
