- Description
- Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 52.215 3 ? Request for Information or Solicitation for Planning Purposes (Oct 1997) is included as follows: ?(a) The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this solicitation or to otherwise pay for the information solicited except as an allowable cost under other contracts as provided in subsection 31.205 18, Bid and proposal costs, of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. (b) Although ?proposal? and ?offeror? are used in this Request for Information, your response will be treated as information only. It shall not be used as a proposal. (c) This solicitation is issued for the purpose of as follows in the paragraphs below.? 2. The purpose of this RFI is to identify and obtain information from responsible sources and interested parties who have proven solutions that can meet all CNS/ATM and Navigation/Safety mandated requirements, as identified below, for USMC and USN KC 130T and C 130T aircraft. For RFI purposes, the term ?proven? means a solution that is developed and demonstrated through flight trials, is ready for fielding or is already fielded, and only requires integration onto the C 130 as a developmental aspect. The CNS/ATM and Navigation/Safety solution cannot degrade C 130 operational mission capabilities. Please use the minimum number of pages to describe in detail the information requested, but do not exceed 50 pages for your submission. 3. The minimum requirements the solution must satisfy are: a. Global Positioning System (GPS) Precise Positioning Service (PPS) based flight from takeoff to Non Precision Approach b. Incorporation of database fixes, Standard Instrument Departures (SIDS), Standard Terminal Arrival Routings (STARS), and Routes into flight plans c. Required Navigation Performance 4 (RNP 4), RNP 2, and RNP 0.3 (with containment and integrity) d. Upgrade path to GPS Joint Precision Approach Landing System (JPALS) e. 8.33 kHz Very High Frequency (VHF) channel spacing f. Protected Instrument Landing System (P-ILS) and VHF Omnidirectional Range (VOR) Frequency Modulation (FM) Immunity g. Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) Mode Select (Mode S) with Elementary Surveillance (ELS) and Enhanced Surveillance (EHS) with growth path to Mode 5 h. 1090 MHz Extended Squitter (1090ES)Automatic Dependent Surveillance ? Broadcast (ADS B) Out i. Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) j. Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System (TCAS) II k. 406 MHz Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) l. Predictive Windshear m. Replacement of obsolete aircraft radar n. Upgrade of aircraft electrical systems to provide clean and regulated power using MIL-STD-704A as a guide for AC power and MIL-STD-704E for DC power In addition to addressing the minimum requirements, please identify and describe in detail, capabilities in your solution that exceeds these minimum requirements (e.g. ADS B Two Way). In your response, include an executive summary not to exceed two pages. The summary must include a table listing requirements ?a? through ?n? above and indicate for each whether the requirement will be met (Fully, Partially, Not Met) by your solution. Additionally,the table should indicate the paragraph in which the details of your solution can be found. 4. RFI package should include information such as: a. Detailed description of how your CNS/ATM and Navigation/Safety solution meets (or exceeds) the requirements of paragraph 3 above. The description should provide adequate detail to allow assessment by Government Subject Matter Experts and include items such as Group A, Group B, and Software components as well as conceptual layouts. b. Describe how your proposed CNS/ATM system will provide both Line Of Sight (LOS) and Beyond Line Of Sight (BLOS) Air Traffic Services (ATS) approved data link for operational use by C 130 aircrews. c. Describe how your proposed CNS/ATM system does not degrade current military operational capabilities. (e.g. Selective Availability Anti Spoof Module (SAASM)/C 130 Navigation Warfare (NAVWAR), airdrops.) d. Describe how your solution allows the selection of Y Code GPS as the only radio navaid for operational use in an Area Of Responsibility (AOR). e. Describe how your solution integrates with legacy C 130 interfaces, processors, navigation, communication, and data link systems that are retained as part of your solution. f. Describe how your solution operates/survives within the C 130 weight restrictions, operational environments (including shock, temperature, vibration) and Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) environments. g. Describe any reliability improvements to the C 130 aircraft that result from your solution. h. Provide information to include Point of Contact(s) for aircraft on which your solution has been implemented. i. Provide a summary of your experience with CNS/ATM integration on C 130 and other DOD aircraft. 5. RFI response should also include schedule, risk, and implementation cost details: a. Provide developmental and production (kit buys and installation) schedules and identify any implementation related risks b. Provide Rough Order Magnitude (ROM) for both development (integration/adaptation to C 130, trial installation, and verification testing) and production for 47 aircraft. Each of these costs is to be provided as separate totals; production costs are to be broken into cost per kit and installation costs per aircraft. 6. Point of Contact(s) Include: Name, company name, phone number, e mail and mailing address for the subject matter experts; and state if your company is small business, small disadvantaged business, women owned small business, service disabled veteran owned small business, and o/or HUBZone small business.
