- Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), China Lake, CA intends to issue a solicitation using full and open competitive procedures for a three year period with two one-year options for Combat Environment Simulation Services. Anticipate multiple awards, Cost Plus Award Fee, IDIQ type contracts. Tasks will be competed, issued and funded at the order level. The Combat Environment Simulation (CES) Division at China Lake requires support to develop and acquire new range systems, integrate various range systems and upgrade and modernize existing range systems. Specifically, there are requirements for the integration of various T&E and training systems into existing range systems and infrastructure; the fielding of systems at new range locations; the modification/update/upgrade of major software systems, and the development, modification, or integration of supporting range systems and assets (for participants tracking, data communications, exercise monitoring, and debrief, etc.). The Combat Environment Simulation Division also requires a variety of engineering, technical and management services related to development, fabrication, procurement, integration, test, training and technical support of radar and pod instrumentation systems, EO/IR/MW/UV/Laser/C4I Threat Simulator systems, tactical training ranges for all DoD services, related network-centric systems and components, Advanced Air Defense technological concepts, Information Assurance/Operations, Artificial Intelligence, and Neural Networking in a Network Centric Warfare environment. As required by specific task orders, the contractor shall design, develop, fabricate, install, integrate, and test network-centric warfare equipment and/or systems designed to provide a dense, realistic, electromagnetic (radio frequency, infrared, electro-optic, and laser energy) environment to be used by the Defense community for weapon systems development, real-time aircrew tactical training, test and evaluation, test and evaluation of defense suppression systems, electronic warfare (EW) systems, electronic countermeasures (ECM) equipment, and electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM) equipment. These efforts will include fixed and moving ground, sea, and air targets, multi-lateration and GPS-based instrumentation pods, threat emitters, integrated hardware/software systems and environments and hostile equipment modeled entirely in software. The contractor shall install and integrate the systems and equipment on test and evaluation ranges and training ranges. The contractor shall provide pod instrumentation support; including complete GPS-Based Range Instrumentation Equipment (BRIE) logistics and engineering support including but not limited to in-plant and on-site diagnosis, repair and engineering support of GPS-BRIE; upgrades, system engineering, software engineering support; training support; configuration management; program management, and web site/data base management and maintenance. The contractor shall design, develop, build and test equipment in support of test and evaluation and training ranges (US and authorized foreign ranges). This requirement is derived from the acquisition activities of multiple interrelated, complementing programs. Because of the synergistic nature of the CES Division?s product and the thrust to emphasize commonality and joint interpretability across all Department of Defense (DoD) ranges, the body of projects executed by this division take on the look and feel of a single unified acquisition.
