- Description
- This is an announcement by the U.S. Army Contracting Command - Aberdeen Proving Ground (ACC-APG) under Solicitation No. W15P7T-15-R-0011 that serves as a notice to industry concerning procurement of Non-Developmental Item (NDI) products to meet the requirements of the Small Airborne Link 16 Terminal (SALT) system for Army Aviation. SALT is intended as a two-channel software-defined, National Security Agency (NSA) Type 1 radio, consisting of Link 16 and Soldier Radio Waveform (SRW). The Government will not consider developmental products, as market research has verified that the SALT requirements can be met using only NDI or modified NDI products. This announcement reflects the new solicitation number to be used for SALT, and it is an update to the announcement under Solicitation Number W15P7T-14-R-5002. The release of the SALT Request for Proposal (RFP) was delayed due to the need to conduct further market research regarding this acquisition. At the conclusion of market research a separate notice with revised draft RFP documents will be posted, which is anticipated to be provided in February of 2015. Subsequently, the formal RFP will be posted with response dates and instructions as applicable to this solicitation. Please see the attached document which contains Government responses to industry questions received regarding draft RFP documents provided via FedBizOpps under solicitation no. W15P7T-14-R-5002. Interested sources are encouraged to provide responses to the questions below. The Government does not guarantee that questions received will be answered. Interested parties are invited to subscribe to the Federal Business Opportunities website to ensure they receive any important information updates connected with this Request for Information (RFI). Crypto Modernization Questions: 1. What is the current planned date of completion for Link 16 Crypto Modernization on your SALT solution? 2. Provide a timeline for completion of the Link 16 Crypto Modernization on the proposed SALT solution. Responses to this RFI shall be submitted no later than December 5, 2014, 4 PM ET to christopher.c.ciupinski.civ@mail.mil. Responses should be in MS Office 2007 or Adobe PDF formats. E-mail messages shall be less than 10 MB in size. If larger files are submitted, they must be broken into separate e-mail messages. All communications SHALL be submitted ONLY in writing AND directly to the email addresses identified. 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 communications SHALL be submitted ONLY in writing AND directly to the email addresses identified below. The designated ACC-APG point of contact for this action is Mr. Chris Ciupinksi, 443-861-4975, christopher.c.ciupinski.civ@mail.mil.
