This announcement is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute a solicitation, nor is it to be construed as a commitment by the Government. The Government will not pay for any effort expended in responding to this notice. The purpose of this meeting is to exchange preliminary information with industry and to solicit feedback on the Government?s draft acquisition documents for the TSAT SE&I Follow-on effort as part of the Government?s ongoing market research. A first draft RFP is contemplated to be released 1QFY08. To help develop an appropriate acquisition strategy and a clear and effective RFP for the SE&I Follow-on contract, the TSAT Program Office is soliciting industry inputs on the following topics: 1) system engineering/integration acquisition initiatives or incentive solutions to reduce risk presented by the TSAT program schedule; 2) lessons learned and best practices; 3) feedback on the draft proposal documents, including the Statement of Objectives, incentive/award plan fee plan, contract deliverables, and Work Breakdown Structure, and Statement of Work instructions, and (4) Organizational Conflict of Interest issues. The current program-developed copies of acquisition documents will be made available upon request when registering for Industry Day and will be made available on the TSAT SE&I Bidders Library. Contractors must document and submit all input in writing, including recommended discussion questions by 0800 PDT on 9 November 07. Discussion questions will be addressed at a potential future Industry Day or through a formal Government-response posting on the Bidders Library. All input shall be submitted to SMC/MCSW/PK(TSAT), 483 N. Aviation Blvd., El Segundo, CA 90245-2808, Attn: Herbert Countee, Contracting Officer. Discussion questions must be marked appropriately; justification must be provided for any portion marked as proprietary or with other restrictions on their use. All interested parties are invited to attend day one when the Government team will present a TSAT program overview and objectives, the draft acquisition strategy, system and segment requirements, and the SE&I contractor?s required interaction with the other program segments, including Space, TMOS, and terminals. Day two will be used to meet individually with potential prime contractors who request a one-on-one session with the Government. One-on-one sessions will be made by appointment and last no more than 1 hour. The Government will only provide information during these sessions that is equally available to all interested parties. Following Day 2, the collective answers provided during the one-on-one sessions will be posted on the TSAT SE&I Bidders Library website.
