Description
Air Force Distributed Common Ground System (AF DCGS) is a net-centric Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR) weapon system (WS), capable of tasking ISR sensors and receiving, processing, exploiting, and disseminating data/information from airborne, national, and commercial reconnaissance platforms and sensors such as the U-2, Global Hawk, and Predator. AF DCGS performs global multi-INT operations and correlates collected Imagery Intelligence (IMINT), Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), and Measurement and Signature Intelligence (MASINT). This WS consists of numerous active duty, Air National Guard, and mission-partner sites interconnected by the Global Information Grid (GIG). AF DCGS Block 20 (Formerly known as Increment 2) is the next major acquisition activity building upon the architectural framework established by AF DCGS Block 10.2. Block 20 will modernize Signals Intelligence capabilities, integrating it into AF DCGS net-centric environment as well as provide new and enhanced capabilities and continuing IMINT and MASINT updates. AF DCGS WS capabilities will be expanded to handle an increased number of existing, upgraded, and new sensors with improved communications and processing/exploitation timelines. Current planning is for these capabilities to be developed and fielded through several versions, with each version providing a capability that is affordable, militarily useful, and based on a mature technology. The Integrator's role will be to implement an existing SOA infrastructure, and manage/complete all mission capability integration efforts, including testing, by strictly conforming to the architecture/standards which will be developed and provided by the Government. The Integrator will also be required to develop and implement a System Integration Lab (SIL) where a prototype and future capability releases will be fully tested prior to fielding. Associate contractor agreements (ACA), as well as Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) plans will be mandatory for all contracts.
