- Description
- This is a Pre-Solicitation Synopsis. The Global Hawk Systems Group, Contracting Division, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Air Force Life Cycle Management Center, anticipates the continued procurement of Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) assets through fiscal year 2015. Requirements for these procurements include, but are not limited to, Global Hawk Air Vehicles (AV), Enhanced Integrated Sensor Suites (EISS), Airborne Signals Intelligence Payloads (ASIP), engineering updates, configuration management, flight test demonstrations, system integration, and support segments. These components comprise the Global Hawk System. It is the Government's intent to release a solicitation for these requirements on a Sole Source basis IAW FAR 6.302-1, "Only one responsible source" being Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems, located at 17066 Goldentop Road, Rancho Bernardo, CA, CAGE Code 78022. *Subcontracting possibilities do exist. The proposed effort involves work classified at the SECRET level with the potential to go to higher levels. For planning purposes, the Government contemplates a Firm Fixed Price (FFP) contract arrangement for ASIP payloads, AVs, EISS, and all other Lot 11 components. These contracts will commence in June 2014; however, the Advance Procurement for the Long Lead items is slated to commence in September 2013 (this synopsis is strictly for subcontracting opportunities). Interested firms must possess capabilities to meet the following criteria: -ability to manufacture, integrate, and test the Global Hawk UAV with related ground segment, - ensure the AV sensor suites for the Global Hawk interact through secure BLOS or LOS data links including the receipt of airborne system health status, - demonstrate efficient subcontractor and vendor product acquisition management including working with other Government communications and sensors, -possess experience in interacting with Government acquisition program offices, -ability to obtain a U.S. SECRET level security clearance, and -provide a secure facility for the development and production of all Global Hawk systems components including Automated Information Systems. Parties interested in subcontracting opportunities should contact Mr. Wayne Ogin, Global Supply Chain Program Manager at Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation. (858) 618-4212. GLOBAL HAWK is an Air Force Life Cycle Management Center (AFLCMC) program.
