- Description
- 13-R-0081 Solicitation The Naval Air Systems Command, Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division (NAWCWD) intends to negotiate an award for a single order Cost Plus Fix Fee (CPFF) contract using other than full and open competition. Negotiations will be conducted with L-3 Communication Systems-West (L3-CSW), located at 640 North 2200 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116 for the procurement of Research and Development for the AEA Division Advance Technology Group. This contract provides for development of the Coherent Network-Centric Spectrum Attack simulations and new and novel algorithms integrated onto existing hardware to be used to demonstrate a coordinated capability between several physically-dispersed tightly-coupled Electronic Attack (EA) assets. The outcomes to be achieved are research, development, prototyping, engineering test, and system analysis and demonstration software for the AEA Division Advance Technology Group in support of the list below. • Knowledge Product - Application and selective tailoring of existing cognitive agents, and participation with NAWCWD technology partners in the development of adaptive EW reasoning software agents providing command & control (C2), adaptable mission prioritization, real-time SA, target ambiguous resolution/classification algorithms, target/spectrum de-confliction, and real-time EA mission effectiveness optimization. Initial development assumes scripted (non-cognitive) EA tactics under the ONR effort. This will expand to include cognitive agents under the FNC portion of the project. • Universal Control Module -Open architecture net-enabled modular hardware payload design providing rapid technology insertion with dynamic reprogramming and upgrading capabilities utilizing Government owned interfaces and standards. The contractor will utilize an existing L-3-owned programmable hardware as the Universal Control Module for this effort. • Net-Centric Coordination Waveform - Real-time coordination and synchronization waveform used to provide a distributed, collaborative mechanism to exchange threat information and distribute attack plans. • Advance Signal Analysis and Electronic Attack techniques - Support NAWCWD to define and advance algorithms to extract information about the radar pulse including pulse width, repetition time, operating frequency, Digital Radio Frequency Memory (DRFM) type EA techniques and an emitter localization algorithm based on time-difference of arrival (TDOA) measurements. The estimated effort for Research and Development consists of 29,395 hours covering the span of 5 years (1 base year with the possibility for 4 option years if exercised). L3- CSW is the sole designer and developer of the software framework for which the system architecture will be built upon; and, only firm which possesses the knowledge and experience required to design, develop, integrate, and test the hardware, software, firmware, instrumentation and control software and system integration test tools. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any firms believing they can fulfill the requirements mentioned above may submit a written response, which shall be considered by the agency. The written response shall reference solicitation N68936-13-R-0081 and clearly show the firms capability, background, experience and assets necessary to perform the required work tasks mentioned above without compromising the quality, accuracy, reliability, and delivery of the products. Written responses shall be submitted by email to bryan.h.perez@navy.mil or mailed to Commander, Code 254300E (B. Perez), NAWCWD, 575 I. Ave. Bldg. 65, Suite 1 Point Mugu, CA 93042-5049 within 15 days from the notice date. Award is anticipated on or about June 2014.
