- Description
- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ONLY. THIS REQUEST IS FOR PLANNING PURPOSES, AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN INVITATION FOR BIDS, REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS, QUOTES OR AN INDICATION THAT THE GOVERNMENT WILL CONTRACT FOR THE ITEMS CONTAINED IN THIS NOTICE. THE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT REIMBURSE RESPONDENTS FOR ANY COST ASSOCIATED WITH THE SUBMISSSION OF THE INFORMATION BEING REQUESTED OR REIMBURSE EXPENSES INCURRED TO THE INTERESTED PARTIES FOR REPONSES. THE GOVERNMENT INTENDS TO PURCHASE A MIRAGE XL SCENE PROJECTOR AND CALIBRATION RADIOMETRY SYSTEM FROM SANTA BARBARA INFRARED, INC. INTERESTED PARTIES THAT CAN PROVIDE THE EXACT EQUIPMENT WITH THE PROPRIETARY INTERFACES BETWEEN THE TWO SYSTEMS MAY SUBMIT A RESPONSE. THE RESPONSE SHALL DEMONSTRATE THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE THE REQUIRED EQUIPMENT, DEMONSTRATE OWNERSHIP OF PROPRIETARY INTERFACE CONTROL DOCUMENTATION, ESTIMATED COST AND ESTIMATED DELIVERY TIMELINE. The U.S. Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG), Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD 21005, on behalf of the Communications Electronics Research and Development Engineering Center (CERDEC) Intelligence and Information Warfare Directorate (I2WD) Electronic Warfare Air/Ground Survivability (EWA/GS) Division, is conducting a Market Survey to identify potential credible sources for the procurement of a Santa Barbara Infrared MIRAGE XL Infrared Scene Projector and Calibration Radiometry System. Background and Description: This Request for Information (RFI) by the Army Acquisition Center seeks industry feedback on vendors that can provide model# MIRAGE XL Infrared Scene Projector capable of transmitting from 2-5.4 microns and a Calibration Radiometry System for use with the MIRAGE XL. This equipment will be used in a laboratory environment. The MIRAGE XL is required to be identical to the previously procured unit by the Intelligence and Information Warfare Directorate (I2WD), Electronic Warfare Air/Ground Survivability (EWA/GS) Division. The Calibration Radiometry System, which is also capable of operating from 2-5.4 microns, is required to have an internal cold filter wheel that allows for insertion of multiple spectral filters (which will be GFE at the time of delivery) and capable of mounting bayonet-style lenses similar to FLIR Systems PN 4107602-0010. This system is required to interconnect with the MIRAGE XL unit at both the hardware and software levels in order to autonomously calibrate the MIRAGE XL based on an ICD that is proprietary and which the Government has no rights to. The vendor will be required to perform factory acceptance testing (FAT) prior to shipment. The vendor will be required to ship the units to the Government provided address should a purchase order follow this RFI. The vendor will also be required to perform site acceptance testing (SAT) in a Government laboratory facility which requires a security clearance. Interested sources are requested to submit a brief summary of Capabilities and pertinent points of contact. Submission of proprietary and other sensitive information shall be marked and identified with disposition instructions. Submitted material will not be returned. All submissions must be in Microsoft Word or Adobe PDF (1-inch margins and 12 point Arial or Times New Roman font), e-mailed to usarmy.apg.cerdec.mbx.i2wd-ewags-rfi@mail.mil. Label the cover page clearly with RFI title: quote mark Procurement of a new MIRAGE XL Infrared Scene Projector (IRSP) and Calibration Radiometry System (CRS) quote mark, respondent organization, and POCs. The page limitation for the Statement of Capabilities package is 5 pages, including figures & tables. All submissions must be received no later than 0800 EDT, 30 June 2015. Responses shall not be above the level of Unclassified/For Official Use Only (FOUO). The information provided and received in response to this announcement is subject to the conditions set forth in FAR 52.215-3 -- Request for Information or Solicitation for Planning Purposes.
