- Description
- DESC: The Information Exploitation Systems (SRH) Program Office seeks to upgrade Eagle Vision through the addition of TerraSar-X satellite capabilities using existing commercial-off-the-shelf products. This is a request for information (RFI) only. It is not a Request for Proposal (RFP), or Solicitation, or an indication that the government will contract for these items. The government will not pay for information received in response to this RFI. Eagle Vision is a system that collects and processes data transmitted from commercial satellites including SPOT 2,4, &5, Ikonos, Quickbird, Radarsat I, and IRS 1C&D. Eagle Vision includes an antenna, a shelter and transit-cased processing equipment that collects and processes imagery into standard commercial formats. A German satellite, TerraSar-X, will be launched to provide high resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite imagery. This RFI seeks information on COTS capability to order, downlink and process TerraSar-X mission data to produce level 1 scenes in formats certified by Infoterra. All TerraSar-X formats and collection modes will be supported. The upgrade will be compatible with the existing Eagle Vision ground station processing architecture and will be seamlessly integrated into the existing Eagle Vision systems. Interested parties are invited to provide technical information, cost of capability, and describe customer base and experience providing such products. Completion of all work is required no later than 12 months after award of contract. The earliest anticipated award date is Jan 2005. Please provide the name of your firm, address, point of contact, phone/fax, and an electronic mail address, if available. This synopsis does not constitute a RFP or an Invitation for Bid (IFB) and is not to be construed as a commitment by the government to issue an order or otherwise pay for information solicited. Interested parties should provide product information meeting the above stated requirements no later than 20 days from the date of this notice. All responders are requested to indicate if they are a large business, small business, small disadvantaged business, 8(a) concern or woman-owned small business. In addition, contractors will indicate whether or not their equipment and services are offered through the GSA schedule or any other government-wide agency contract. Contractors desiring to do business with the Air Force shall be registered in the DoD Central Contracting Reporting (CCR) System. The government may solicit firms meeting the screening criteria in this synopsis.
