- SOURCES SOUGHT USAF MILSTAR System Time Compensated Crystal Oscillator SOURCES SOUGHT SYNOPSIS: Solicitation Number: Notice Type: FD2020-17-00601 Sources Sought Synopsis: 1. NOTICE: This is not a solicitation but rather a Sources Sought Synopsis to determine potential sources for information and planning purposes only. 1.1 The purpose of this Sources Sought is to conduct market research to determine if responsible sources exist, to assist in determining if this effort can be competitive and/or a total Small Business Set-Aside. The proposed North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code is 811219 which has a corresponding Size standard of $20,500,000.00. The Government will use this information to determine the best acquisition strategy for this procurement. The Government is interested in all small businesses to include 8(a), Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, Hubzone, and Women-Owned small business concerns. The government requests that interested parties respond to this notice if applicable and identify your small business status to the identified NAICS code. Additionally, please provide any anticipated teaming arrangements, along with a description of similar services offered to the Government and to commercial customers for the past three years. Any responses involving teaming agreements should delineate between the work that will be accomplished by the prime and the work accomplished by the teaming partners. 2. Program Details: 2.1 The Time Compensated Crystal Oscillator ( TCCO) is an assembly in the Time Standard Module (TSM), and the TSM is an assembly of the Atomic Frequency Time Reference in the Milstar program. The operation of the TSM is vital to the operational capabilities of the Milstar system. Failure to repair the Time Standard Module will result in compromising the operation capabilities of the Milstar system. The government will consider offers that propose to analyze the defective TSM/TCCO, and repair the TSM/TCCO to satisfy all the requirements according to our specifications. This pending contract is to analyze, define, and repair TSM/TCCO to support Milstar sustainment in accordance with the performance requirements defined in specification drawings. 2.2 To be considered as a potential repair source for this requirement, a Contractor will be required to submit technical data, in response to a solicitation, verifying their capabilities to perform the root cause analysis, and repair/supply this item. The Contractor will be required to verify to the Government that the repaired items are able to comply with all of the specifications. The government does not own the drawings, device programing source code, or the calibration software required for repair of this asset, therefore the contractor shall be able to obtain or have the technical data required to meet the specifications. The Contractor will be required to demonstrate Nuclear Survivability expertise and experience, and possess the data defining the Hardness Critical Items (HCI) within the TSM. The contractor shall be able to obtain or have automated test equipment available that simulates all the inputs and proper operation of the TSM unit including the software for TCCO time and temperature calibration. The contractor shall be able to obtain any components required for repair, including programed microcircuits. Without this technical data, software, source code, and test equipment required to test, verify and validate proper functionality of the TSM, and the capability to identify HCI components, the government reserves the right to disqualify any source(s) who do not meet this criteria. 2.3 Following is a suggested outline for a response to this RFI. This outline is intended to minimize the effort of the respondent and structure the responses for ease of analysis by the government. Nevertheless, respondents are free to develop their response as they see fit. 2.31 Briefly describe the company, products and services, history, ownership, financial information, and other information deemed relevant. 2.32 Please describe any projects the company has been involved in that are similar in concept to what is described in this RFI. 2.33 A preliminary Rough Order of Magnitude (ROM) estimate for cost and schedule is requested so that the US Government can better prepare for future expenses. Contract award will not be made based on a ROM submitted in response to this RFI. 2.4 Interested parties may request a source qualification statement from Michael Woolsey at micheal.woolsey@us.af.mil. Interested parties are requested to submit the aforementioned summary of capabilities and facilities to: Clayton Butler 415 SCMS/GUMBB 6012 Fir Lane, Bldg 1239 Hill AFB, UT 84056-5825 801.586.1368 clayton.butler@us.af.mil
