The National Air and Space Intelligence Center?s Advanced Technical Exploitation Division (NASIC/DEM) is contemplating the establishment of one or more than one 5-year contract for both the production as well as the research and development of the MASINT/AGI Program, with an estimated ceiling of $600M. The contract(s) will support all aspects of NASIC/DEM?s mission to provide timely, tailored MASINT and AGI products, services, capabilities, and technical support to the operational, arms control & treaty monitoring, acquisition policy, scientific & technical intelligence community, and to national defense policy makers. Based upon the evaluation of the responders? proposals, the Government shall have the absolute right to award one or more than one contract. The non-nuclear MASINT program covers the electro-optical, radar, space object identification, laser, and radio frequency MASINT sources and systems. The AGI program encompasses radar, spectral and infrared data sources and systems. Production activities will include the tasking, processing, exploitation, reporting, dissemination, and archiving of all non-nuclear MASINT and AGI data and products. The research and development activities will further expand and enhance current capabilities for rapid prototype and deployment to operational users, as well as investigate phenomena, develop capabilities for advanced systems and identify requirements for future non-nuclear MASINT and AGI systems. Based on current program requirements, contractor personnel must be able to work both on and off Wright-Patterson AFB. Contractor personnel must be able to obtain up to Top Secret Sensitive Compartmented Information (Top Secret/SCI) level clearances as required. It is envisioned that successful offerors will be required to maintain a local office near Wright-Patterson AFB. Potential sources must provide, in their response to this announcement, the following information: (1) Evidence of previous experience in all areas of non-nuclear MASINT and AGI production and research and development, as detailed above; (2) Evidence of previous experience in design, development, and maintenance of processing and analysis software in Fortran, C, C++, HTML, IDL, Perl, Java and Java Script programming languages on UNIX, NT, and PC based platforms and workstations; (3) Evidence of general knowledge in the sciences and technologies of physics, electro-optics, signal processing, communications theory, electromagnetics, electronics, scientific programming, meteorology, avionics, mathematics, geophysics, and system networking; (4) Evidence of a process to obtain Top Secret/SCI level cleared personnel and a Top Secret/SCI level facility in accordance with Industrial Security Manual (DoD 5220.22M); and (5) Small businesses must demonstrate the ability to perform in a majority of the MASINT and AGI production and research and development areas described above. The response must not exceed 15 single-spaced, 12-point typed pages in total. All responses shall be unclassified. Two hard copies and one CD should be submitted to Ms. Joey Pence at the address listed below. Responses should be received within 21 calendar days after publication of this announcement. NASIC/DEM is also contemplating conducting an Industry Day on Tuesday, 5 June 2007, at the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) Auditorium on Wright-Patterson AFB to further explain the mission and to solicit inputs from Industry. Industry Day is envisioned to be conducted at the Secret collateral level. Further information will be posted at a later date. Foreign participation on this contract is not authorized. All respondents shall indicate whether they are large or small business in relation to North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 541330, size standard $4.5M. The Government reserves the option to set this acquisition aside for small business. Potential offerors should use established channels to request information, pose questions, and voice concerns before resorting to use of the Ombudsman, Ms. Deborah Haley, ASC/AE, (937) 255-5315, with serious concerns only. The only purpose of the Ombusdsman is to receive and communicate serious concerns from potential offerors when an offeror prefers not to use established channels to communicate his/her concern during the proposal development phase of this acquisition. Direct all request for solicitations and routine communications concerning this acquisition to Joey Pence, Contract Negotiator, ASC/PKN, Bldg 16, Rm 132, 2275 D St., Wright-Patterson AFB, OH 45433-7228, e-mail: joey.pence@wpafb.af.mil.
