- Description
- The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) intends to apply for approval of a Foreign Comparative Testing (FCT) project https://cto.acqcenter.com/osd/portal.nsf/ to evaluate US Army Program Manager Air Soldier Systems Advanced Signal Data Computer (ASDC), Heads Up Display (HUD), head tracking technologies, and capabilities to determine if the system can host current MH-60 Defensive Armed Penetrator (DAP) targeting capabilities. If approved as a FCT project, the U.S. Army Program Manager Air Warrior located at Huntsville, AL, intends to award a contract to Elbit Systems of America to integrate the Advanced Signal Data Computer into the MH-60 DAP to include incorporation of MH-60 DAP unique functionality into the ASDC software. Key characteristics of the final integrated solution include: 1. Symbology which provides required situational awareness for geographic points; 2. Interaction with the weapons systems to display the targeting solution for each weapon system; 3. A high level of accuracy (less than 5mrad(T)/2mrad(O)) of displayed information; 4. Latency within the overall system; such that there is no performance degradation (T) visible to the pilot. This announcement is for information and planning purposes only. It does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP) and is not to be construed as a commitment by the U.S. Government. No contract award will be made as a result of this synopsis. However, all responsible sources may submit a capability statement or an exception to the Government's intent to award on a sole source basis; which, if received within fifteen (15) days of this notice, will be considered in the development of the acquisition strategy that will be included in the FCT proposal submission. Responses to this RFI must be submitted to later than 15:00 Eastern Standard Time, on 23 July, 2014 and shall include: Respondent Name, Point of Contact, Title, Date, E-Mail Address, Phone #, Fax #, Organization/Office Symbol, and Address. RFI submissions shall be sent as email attachments only and shall not exceed three pages. All responses must be sent to Geneva Emiliani, contract specialist at Geneva.Emiliani@socom.mil. An email confirmation of receipt from USSOCOM will be sent within a one-week to the designated POC. No entitlement to payment of direct or indirect costs or charges will arise as a result of contractor submission to this announcement or the Government use of such information.
