- Description
- Description General Electromagnetic Model for the Analysis of Complex Systems (GEMACS) Response Date: November 18, 2008 NAICS Code: 541712 The Air Force SEEK EAGLE Office (AFSEO) Electromagnetic Compatibility/Electromagnetic Interference Team (46 SK/SKI), Eglin AFB, FL is contemplating a sole source firm-fixed-price contract to Applied Research Associates, Inc. (ARA); 1090 Millennium Dr., Suite 210; Belcamp, MD 21017-1505. The requirement is for accurate computational tools to support its flight certification activity, specifically through the use of GEMACS. Computational Electomagnetic tools aid the AFSEO staff in determining Electromagnetic Compatibility/Electromagnetic Interference (EMC/EMI) and Hazards of Electromagnetic Radiation to Ordnance effects for intra-aircraft and aircraft-stores intergration. The anticipated award date is January 2009. The North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code for this effort is 541712; size standard in number of employees is 500. The principle objective of this contract effort is to provide the ability to solve realistically sized electromagnetic problems of high resolution using distributed memory architecture on High Performance Computers (HPC) at the DoD Major Shared Resource Centers. This objective is achieved by implementing the GEMACS and CEM Framework enhancements. The fundamental goal of this project is to modernize GEMACS and the CEM Framework to allow their use of HPC systems and to expand their capabilities through the modifications, upgrades, and enhancements. Applied Research Associates, Inc. (ARA) possesses the unique skills, expertise, and has extensive experience in the modification and maintenance of the government-owned frequency domain code GEMACS to perform the required research and development. An Ombudsman has been appointed to address the concerns of offerors or potential offerors. The Ombudsman does not diminish the authority of the Program Manager or Contracting Officer, but communicates contractor concerns, issues, disagreements, and recommendations to the appropriate Government personnel.
