- Description
- The United States Army Joint Munitions and Lethality Life Cycle ManagementCommand, Joint Armaments Contracting Center, Picatinny Arsenal, N.J. 07806-5000, intends to award a Sole Source requirement for specific components and upgrades required to complete fabrication of the Instrumentation Radar System, Which includes lan-2000b Digital Sub-system upgrade: Heavy Duty Pedestal upgrade; and Pedestal Mounting Platform. This Sole Source requirementis necessary to continue the fabrication of the Radar system. The period of performance will be one year from date of award. The Contract type shall be a Commercial Firm Fixed Price Supply contract. This requirement is in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 2304(c)(1) as implemented by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii) as described in (1)(i), use of other than full and open competition is deemed applicable when there is a reasonable basis to conclude that the agencys minimum needs can only be satisfied by unique supplies or services available from only one or a limited number of sources or from only one or a limited number of suppliers with unique capabilities. The lan-2000b Instrumentation Radar represents the State-Of-The-Art Radar Cross Section (RCS) System that is commercially available. This system provides an Automated Stability Control Function that enables the radar to collect highly repeatable, sideband measurements over several hour timeframe. The lan-2000b utilizes a Unique Fast-switching Synthesizer with a Low Phase-Noise Floor. The radar also incorporates a continuous range-profiling mode that enables continuous range (time) sampling of a single transmit pulse to produce range-time-intensity profiles. The data throughput from the Data Acquisition System is able to provide recording rates of up to 10 MB/second utilizing a reflective memory approach between the data collection processor and an online signal processing workstation. The unique functional features of the lan-2000b include: Frequency Switching Speed < 200 ns, Synthesizer LO Noise Floor > -130dBc at offset frequency of 10 kHz; Measurement stability > -40 dB across 0.1 - 18 GHz and 30 - 40 GHz, Data collection rates up to 10 MB/s, Continuous range sampling on both receive channels, Compatibility with Signal Processing Algorithms. These features are essential to enable the Government to collect high quality data for R&D efforts on Target Detection, Target Recognition and Signature Reduction Programs. Only written or email inquiries will be honored, no telephone requests will be considered. All inquires must include company name, full address, point of contact and title, telephone number, and email address. Funds are currently available. Interested parties should notify Ms. Carol A.
