- Description
- The Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) is providing draft requirements documents and a Waveform Survey for Manpack Radio for review and comment by industry. The Government intends to solicit and award through full and open competition, several Multiple Award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for the purpose of procuring Manpack Radios for the Full Rate Production (FRP) phase of the program. The current Manpack Radio requirements are stated in the Capability Production Document (CPD) for Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) Version 2.4 dated 5 April 2012 and approved on 20 May 2012. These requirements have been extracted and collated in the Draft Performance Requirements Document (PRD) for the Manpack Radio Full Rate Production. The Government intends to procure existing and Non-Developmental Items that meet the Manpack Radio capabilities as described in the PRD. Manpack Radios will enable communications through seamless, high speed and digital information exchange across both vertical and horizontal hierarchies within the battlespace that supports ground, airborne and maritime domains. The Manpack Radio will support all domains for dismounted and mounted communications as a multi-functional communications platform. The Manpack Radio will provide two independent, multi-waveform channels as a software defined radio with an embedded Selective Availability Anti Spoofing Module (SAASM) to enable radios to transmit their locations to external host applications. Interested sources are encouraged to provide responses to the attached Waveform Survey, as well as provide comments and questions on the attached Draft requirements documents, which include the Draft PRD, Draft Statement of Work, Draft Contract Data Requirements List (CDRLs), and Draft Section H of the Uniform Contract Format (UCF). All questions, comments, and questionnaire responses pertaining to the documents posted today and any further documents posted in the future via amendment to this notice, along with any questions from industry day shall be submitted no later than July 22, 2014, 12 PM ET to thomas.e.lynn23.civ@mail.mil. Questions/Comments should be in MS Office 2007 or Adobe PDF formats. E-mail messages must be less than 10 MB in size. If larger files are submitted, they must be broken into separate messages. All communications SHALL be submitted ONLY in writing AND directly to the email addresses identified above. Contractors shall not contact any other Government Personnel other than the person identified above. Contacting any Government personnel other than the individual identified above could result in an organizational conflict of interest (OCI) and could result in an offeror being excluded from competition and/or award. All proprietary and restricted information shall be clearly marked. Any documentation provided will not be returned. This notice is issued solely for information and planning purposes - it does not constitute a Final Solicitation or a promise to issue a Final Solicitation in the future. This notice does not commit the Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. Furthermore, the Government is not at this time seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. Respondents are advised that the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in responding to this notice; all costs associated with responding to this notice will be solely at the interested parties' expense. Not responding to this notice does not preclude participation in any future Final Solicitation, if issued. If a Final Solicitation is released, it will be synopsized on the Federal Business Opportunities (FedBizOpps) website. It is the responsibility of the potential responder to monitor these sites for additional information pertaining to this requirement. If your company is interested in this planned procurement, then it is advised that you monitor the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) website at HTTP://WWW.FBO.GOV. The above discussed intent is subject to change.
