- Description
- Notice of Contract Action for a Sole Source Procurement SUBJECT: NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT FOR the following Microwave Tuner with options and Dual Phase Analyzer Unit provided by Rockwell Collins or equivalent. The Air Force, Edwards Air Force Base, CA intends to award a Sole Source purchase order to Rockwell Collins, 3200 East Renner Road, Richardson Texas 75082. The following line items are required: Line Item Part No. Description/Quantity Qty 1 70395-76 CS-5020C Microwave Tuner w/options 2 2 71407-06 CS-3002 - Dual Pulse Analyzer 1 The microwave tuner with options (Note: options include an ability to allow expansion of the device's frequency range and to process communication signals), and the dual pulse analyzer units make up an electromagnetic signal collection system used to monitor, record, and analyze Radio Frequency (RF) signals during anechoic chamber test and for signal verification. The main portion of the system is the ComSol Electronic Intelligence (ELINT) processing system. This system provides detailed analysis of signals collected from 500 MHz to 18 GHz. Captured RF signals can be used to ensure the proper operation of the CEESIM, capture and analyze signals from systems under test, or to capture advanced waveforms for programming on the CEESIM. The dual channel ComSol allows for data collection in two different frequency bands simultaneously, a feature requested often by test customers and also necessary for the correlation program's collection of two radar modes simultaneously. The ComSol is also used at other government test ranges and will have vendor support for an extended period. The ComSol is composed of two essential parts, the Pulse Analyzer Unit (PAU) and the Microwave Tuner. The Microwave Tuner provides a 160 MHz and 1 GHz intermediate frequency (IF) output to be processed by a Pulse Analyzer Unit (PAU) which is used to measure IF and video signals to extract precise radar signal parameters for use in identification, analysis and emitter location. The Microwave Tuner interacts with a Dual Channel ComSol allowing for data collection in two different frequency bands simultaneously. The options are included to allow expansion of the device's frequency range and to process communication signals. Ship Date: 10 Months ARO FOB: Destination Edwards AFB CA 93524. Please note that this is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all interested parties who believe they can meet the requirements are invited to submit in writing complete information describing their ability to provide the specified items. Responses may be sent via e-mail to deidra.oneal@us.af.mil or mailed to AFTC/PZIEB, 5 South Wolfe Ave, Edwards AFB, CA 93524-1185, Attention: Deidra O'Neal. Fax Number: 661-277-0470. Information received as a result of this notice will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination by the Air Force not to open the requirement to open competition, based on response to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Air Force. If the office has not received any affirmative written responses by 12 noon PST, 28 August 2013.
