- Description
- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI) ONLY. THERE IS NO SOLICITATION PACKAGE AVAILABLE. The Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division Lakehurst (NAWCAD) is requesting information pertaining to a modernized solution for the Automated Gyro/Gimbal Control System (AGCS). The AGCS is part of the Consolidated Automated Support System (CASS) Electro-Optic Third Generation (EO3) Console and has become obsolete. The AGCS provides the EO console with specialized capability for executing Advanced Tactical Forward Looking Infra-Red (ATFLIR) Test Program Set (TPS). The requirement is to design, develop, integrate, qualify, demonstrate and test a modernized AGCS to meet the functional requirements of 2051AS740 (CASS B1 Prime Item Development Specification) and 2056AS954 (AGCS Source Control Drawing) with commercial off-the-shelf components, integrate with a CASS station, perform self-test and demonstrate successful operation of ATFLIR TPSs. The replacement AGCS shall contain current generation software that is fully supported by the COTS vendor(s) or be custom developed with unlimited rights to the Government. The ATFLIR TPS source code shall be modified in order to successfully execute with the Modernized AGCS. All testing will be performed at a designated Navy installation. Upon successful completion of testing, a limited number of units to support Foreign Military Sales (FMS) Customers and several additional units will be required. The Modernized AGCS will be developed in two formats: Rack-mountable under a CASS Auxiliary Equipment Fixture (AEF), and standard 19 inch rack. Reliability predictions shall be performed on hardware to evaluate the system design. Interested sources shall identify all COTS hardware and software data rights restrictions, aside from which the modernized AGCS design shall have unlimited Government data rights. Interested sources are requested to submit estimated price information in their submission, including pricing for up to five production-configuration units. It is requested that information be submitted NO LATER THAN 15 JANUARY 2010 to Ms. Dianne Mount, Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division, Code 25221B562-3, Highway 547, Lakehurst, NJ 08733-5082, or by electronic mail at: dianne.mount@navy.mil. Ms. Mount may be reached at (732) 323-2903 or fax (732) 323-2359, or to Mr. Allen Bresley, by electronic mail at: allen.bresley@navy.mil. Mr. Bresley may be reached at (732) 323-4068 or fax (732) 323-2359. Respondents are notified that a formal solicitation MAY NOT necessarily result from the RFI. Any comments provided may or may not be included in a formal solicitation. The Government WILL NOT PAY for any information received in response to this RFI nor will the Government compensate any respondent with costs incurred in developing the information provided to the Government. The Government will not release any information marked with a Proprietary legend, received in response to this RFI, to any firms, agencies, or individuals outside the Government without written permission in accordance with the legend.
