- Description
- Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD), China Lake, CA intends to issue a solicitation using full and open competitive procedures for awarding Multiple Award Contracts (MAC's) supporting the Combat Environment Simulation (CES) Division at China Lake and the Airborne Threat Simulation (ATS) Division at Point Mugu, CA. Anticipated contract type: Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts. Duration of ordering period: five years. Tasks will be competed, issued and funded at the order level. The requirements consist of efforts for the design, engineering development, fabrication, procurement, integration, testing, training and managing of radar and pod instrumentation systems, Electro-Optic (EO), Infra-Red (IR), Millimeter Wave (MW), Ultra-Violet (UV), Laser, Command, Control, Communication, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (C4ISR) Threat Simulator systems, manned and unmanned airborne participants, high-energy laser and high-power Radio Frequency (RF) directed energy, Network-Centric systems and components, Advanced Air Defense technological concepts, Information Assurance and Operations, Artificial Intelligence,! Improvised Explosive Device (IED), man-portable air defense systems (MANPADS) Asymmetric Warfare and Battlespace environment. Because of the synergistic nature of the CES Division's product and the thrust to emphasize commonality and joint interpretability across all Department of Defense (DoD) ranges, the body of projects executed by this division take on the look and feel of a single unified acquisition. Specifically, there are requirements for the integration of various Test and Evaluation (T&E) and training systems into existing range systems and infrastructure; the fielding of systems at new range locations; the modification/update/upgrade of major software systems, and the development, modification, or integration of supporting range systems and assets (for participants tracking, data communications, exercise monitoring, and debriefing). As required by specific task orders, the contractor shall design, develop, fabricate, install, integrate, and test network-centric warfare equipment and/or systems designed to provide a dense, realistic, electromagnetic (radio frequency, infrared, electro-optic, and laser energy) environment to be used by the Defense community for weapon systems development, real-time aircrew tactical training, test and evaluation, test and evaluation of defense suppression systems, electronic warfare (EW) systems, electronic countermeasures (ECM) equipment, and electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM) equipment. These efforts will include fixed and moving ground, sea, and air targets, multi-lateration and Global Positioning System (GPS)-based instrumentation pods, threat emitters, integrated hardware/software systems and environments and hostile equipment modeled entirely in software. The contractor shall install and integrate the systems and equipment on test and evaluation ranges and training ranges. The contractor shall provide pod instrumentation support; including complete GPS-Based Range Instrumentation Equipment (BRIE) logistics and engineering support including but not limited to in-plant and on-site diagnosis, repair and engineering support of GPS-BRIE; upgrades, system engineering, software engineering support; training support; configuration management; program management, and web site/data base management and maintenance. The contractor shall design, develop, build and test equipment in support of test and evaluation and training ranges (US and authorized foreign ranges). This requirement is derived from the acquisition activities of multiple interrelated, complementing programs. Level of facility clearance required: SECRET. Level of safeguarding required: SECRET. NAWCWD will employ a best value selection approach in selecting awardee(s) for the contracts. The anticipated solicitation release date: November 6, 2009. The solicitation will be available through Navy Electronic Commerce Online (NECO) at https://www.neco.navy.mil/ and FedBizOps at https://www.fbo.gov/. The anticipated solicitation closing date: December 21, 2009. The Anticipated award date: March 31, 2010. No hard copies of the solicitation will be furnished unless absolutely necessary. All responsible sources, that submit a proposal, shall be considered by the Agency. This solicitation is a follow-on to CES contracts N68936-04-D-0019 with Tybrin Corporation, N68936-04-D-0020 with Lockheed Martin Services and N68936-04-D-0022 with L-3 Communications.
