- DRAFT Statement of Objectives v01 REQUEST FOR INFORMATION SATELLITE ENABLED TRACKING AND INTRUSION DETECTION (SETID) 1. Introduction The United States Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) is conducting market research to determine qualified, experienced, and interested potential sources. Part of the market research is to publish a Request for Information (RFI) seeking market information on businesses capable of providing the services/products requested. Contractors choosing to respond to this RFI are cautioned that THIS RFI IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. This RFI is a market research tool used to determine the adequacy of eligible business sources prior to determining the acquisition strategy and issuance of a request for proposal. The Government is not obligated to and shall not pay for any information received from any sources responding to this notice and will not provide any feedback or carry on discussions with non-federal government activities regarding the information provided in response to this RFI. Responses to this notice are not offers and cannot be accepted by the U.S. Government to form a binding contract. 2. Background The USTRANSCOM and its subordinate command the SURFACE DEPLOYMENT AND DISTRIBUTION COMMAND (SDDC) is establishing logistical support contract to meet increased demand for installation, removal, operation, advice/assistance, and communication for any Department of Defense (DoD) Defense Transportation System (DTS) movement requiring these devices. While the DoD will not purchase the SETID devices, the service provider will acquire, inventory, package and ship for distribution these devices as directed by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR). These actions are necessary to provide the data which DoD desires for Enhanced In-transit Visibility (E-ITV). It is the intent of this contract to have the tags placed on containers for DTS movements, have the tags report its location (sometimes referred to as ‘pings') and sensor alerts (sometimes referred to as ‘alarms') all in the DoD eXtensible Markup Language (XML) format to the Global Exchange (GEX) server in secure file transfer protocol, and have the tag respond to over-the-air command and control instructions as directed by the COR. The service provider must be able to locate tags and replace the tag or batteries when necessary while in use for a DTS shipment, keep in constant contact with the DTS commercial transportation service providers for response to tag alarms, and provide installation and de-installation of tags in locations directed by the COR. The SETID Service is a 24-hour- seven days a week operation while these tags are in use on DTS shipments. Additionally, the service provider will perform program assistance on a fee for service basis for programmatic requests such as testing and evaluation of tags, user support, attending sponsors and stakeholders meetings, data quality research, and more. For each programmatic request, the contractor will provide an estimate of costs, period of performance, and proposed outcome/deliverable to close the request. 3. Requested Information Information requested: 1. Name, mailing address, overnight delivery address (if different from mailing address), phone number, fax number, and e-mail of designated point of contact 2. Company information (include CAGE Code and DUNS) 3. Anticipated teaming arrangements (if applicable) 4. Typical contract terms and conditions for this type of work 5.

Contract number b. Contract type c. Total contract value d. Performance as a prime or subcontractor e. Brief description of the effort f. Period of performance g. North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code h. Small Business Size Standard (if applicable) 7. Describe company's solution for satisfying the requirement 8. Non-binding Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) 9.
