- Description
- The U.S. Army Contracting Command- New Jersey, Picatinny Arsenal, NJ 07806-5000, on behalf of the Project Manager for Combat Ammunition Systems (PM CAS) has a requirement for production and delivery of Fire Control Systems/ Fielding (FireCon-F) to support 60mm/81mm/120mm mortar systems. The FireCon-F program includes fire control hardware/software and fielding support for the Mortar Fire Control System - Mounted (MFCS-M) M95/M96, the Mortar Fire Control System - Dismounted (MFCS-D) M150/M151, the M32 Lightweight Handheld Mortar Ballistic Computer (LHMBC), and 60mm/81mm/120mm Mortar Weapons Systems. The MFCS-M M95/M96 -is an add-on system to current 120mm Vehicle Mounted Mortar System and Fire Direction Center (FDC) vehicles. The M95/M96 is fully integrated into its host vehicle. It provides mortar platoon leaders with accurate, digitally integrated, and responsive indirect fire system capabilities. The capabilities of MFCS allow the mortar platoon to attack up to six targets simultaneously. MFCS's capabilities include position/navigation, weapon pointing (weapon applications only), ballistic computation, and the ability to digitally communicate with present and future digital fire support systems including the AFATDS via Advanced Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System Improvement Program (ASIP) radios. The MFCS-D M150/M151 - is an add-on system to current M120A1 Towed Mortar System and FDC vehicles. The M150/M151 provides the same functionality of M95/M96 in a ground-mounted configuration. It is an add-on system to presently fielded mortar systems. It serves as a platoon level digitally integrated fire control system consisting of position/navigation, weapon pointing (weapon applications only), ballistic computation, and digital communication along with providing situational awareness capabilities. The M32 LHMBC - provides the ability to compute fast and accurate ballistic solutions for the entire family of fielded U.S. mortars (60mm, 81mm, and 120mm mortar systems) and their complete inventory of ammunition. With the LHMBC, warfighters are able to set up a mortar, calculate a fire control solution, fire, and begin redeployment in under one minute. The system can calculate up to six simultaneous missions and three final protective fires; act on priority targets; perform fratricide checks; execute check fire; calculate single safety fan with multiple segments; utilize digital meteorological data; and input/output digital variable message format messages from/to the Advanced Field Artillery Tactical Data System (AFATDS) and the Forward Observer System (FOS). The Government anticipates awarding a single, five (5) year Firm Fixed Price (FFP) Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) production contract. Fielding services will be awarded on a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) basis. The anticipated FireCon-F production contract will include a maximum possible quantity of 1018 for the M95, 99 for the M96, 300 for the M150, 56 for the M151, 2484 for the LHMBC, and $9.6M in fielding services. A one year warranty with a 4-year extended option from date of Government acceptance is required under this contract to cover all defects in material and workmanship. The estimated maximum contract value will be $102,000,000 with a guaranteed minimum of $1,000,000. This requirement will generate significant subcontracting opportunities. The Mortar Fire Control Systems will be manufactured, inspected, staged (assembling of the material and preparation for transit) and delivered in accordance with a Government Technical Data Packages (TDPs) and applicable contract requirements. Specifications and drawings, containing export control data/distribution markings will require contractors to provide Military Critical Technical Data Agreements (DD Form 2345), Non Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and AMSTA-AR 1350 must be submitted prior to receiving the TDPs. Funds are available for this acquisition. Point of contact for this requirement is Mr. Mark Bobitka, ACC-NJ-CA, Bldg. 10, Picatinny Arsenal, NJ 07806-5000.
