This will include, but is not limited to, engineering change proposals which address obsolescence, cyber security and resiliency, navigation upgrades, information security, communication security, product improvement, value engineering and other approved changes as directed or necessary to meet existing, emerging or new requirements. These activities include hardware and software design and development, aircraft integration, testing, modeling and simulation, and procurement of prototype and qualification hardware to support development, integration, qualification and pre-production engineering. Examples of planned efforts include developing and integrating a solution to meet requirements for the Assistant Secretary of Defense Network and Information Integration (ASD(NII)) Military Code/Enhanced Anti-Jam (M-Code/EAJ) receiver and the National Security Agency (NSA) Cryptographic Modernization mandates. This effort will have significant impacts on the SDB II and the supporting and enabling technologies/systems (e.g., GPS and data link encryption, data link networking, Joint Mission Planning System (JMPS), Common Munitions Built-in Test (BIT)/Re-Programming Equipment (CMBRE), Air Operations Center (AOC), and Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC)), affecting Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD), production, and sustainment phases. The SDB II Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) will not provide SDB II test assets as a subcontractor and the Government is unable to provide test assets as Government Furnished Property (GFP). A build-to technical data package (TDP) for test assets is not available due to the on-going development of SDB II test assets. All interested vendors shall submit a response demonstrating their capability to perform this effort to the Primary Point of Contact listed below. Proposals are not being requested or accepted at this time. As stipulated in FAR 15.201(e), responses to this notice are not considered offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. No solicitation (Request for Proposal) exists at this time; therefore, do not request a copy of the solicitation. The decision to solicit for a contract shall be solely within the Government's discretion. The NAICS Code assigned to this acquisition is 332993, Bombs Manufacturing, with a size standard of 1500 persons. Respondents should indicate their size in relation to this size standard and indicate socio-economic status (i.e. SB, 8(a), HUBZone, EDWOSB, WOSB, or SDVOSB). Respondents are further requested to indicate their status as a Foreign-owned/Foreign-controlled firm and any contemplated use of foreign national employees on this effort. The Government reserves the right to consider a small business set-aside based upon responses hereto for any subsequent action. All prospective contractors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) database to be awarded a DoD contract. No set-aside decision has been made. Note that a key factor in determining an acquisition to be a Small Business Set Aside is that small business prime contractors must perform at least 50% of the effort, as defined in FAR Clause 52.219-14. Any information submitted by respondents to this sources sought is voluntary. This sources sought notice is not to be construed as a commitment by the Government, nor will the Government reimburse any costs associated with the submission of information in response to this notice. Respondents will not be individually notified of the results of any government assessments. The Government's assessment of the capability statements received will factor into whether any forthcoming solicitation will be conducted as a full and open competition or as a set-aside for small business, or any particular small business program. CAPABILITIES STATEMENT: All interested vendors shall submit a capabilities statement that explicitly demonstrates their capability to provide/perform the requirement stated in this notice. The capabilities statement should be brief and concise, yet clearly demonstrate an ability to meet the stated requirement. The response must not exceed 15 pages. Small businesses with only partial capabilities of this requirement are encouraged to submit their capabilities statement demonstrating the portion of the requirement they are capable of providing/performing. This information will allow the Government to identify areas of possible breakout or possible subcontracting opportunities.
