- The United States (US) Army Space and Missile Defense Command/Army Forces Strategic Command (USASMDC/ARSTRAT) has received approval, subject to Congressional notification, to competitively enter into an Other Transaction Agreement (OTA) for a Long Endurance Multi-Intelligence Vehicle (LEMV) under the authority of Section 845 of the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) for Fiscal Year (FY) 1994, Public Law 103-160, as amended (Title 10 United States Code (USC) Section 2371 note). OTAs under Section 845 are exempt from many federal acquisition regulations and processes with the intent of fostering the participation of companies that do not traditionally do business with the Department of Defense. The anticipated LEMV OTA will be for a five year technology demonstration inclusive of the fabrication of a LEMV airship, integration of payload and ancillary systems, test, and support for five years. The schedule requires performance testing within 18 months followed by additional test and demonstration conducted in Afghanistan over the remaining OTA term. The basic performance requirements for the LEMV airship include: optionally unmanned; 3 week endurance; 2500 pound payload capability; operating altitude of 20,000 feet above mean sea level, 16 kilowatts of payload power ; multi-intelligence capable; supportable from austere locations; 80 knot dash speed and 20 knot station keep speed. Detailed requirements on performance and schedule requirements will be made available from the below Contracting Specialist point of contact. The anticipated release date for the OTA request for proposal is 29 January, 2010. The Government anticipates that proposal submission will consist of oral presentations as well as written. All interested parties are requested to contact the below point of contact to be placed on the bidders list and to receive updates and additional information as it becomes available. The Point of Contact for this action is Marie Tornai, Contract Specialist. Request to be placed on the bidders list and all other questions shall be directed to her in writing.
