The RCIS capability provides a solution to meet the Route Clearance & Interrogation Systems Type I Capabilities Production Document. The RCIS Type I Program of Record (POR) is managed by the Product Manager (PdM) Appliqué and Large Unmanned Ground Systems (ALUGS). The RCIS Type I requirement is for six EMD RCIS Type I prototypes, one additional Semi-Autonomous Control (SAC) System and one radio set during Engineering and Manufacturing Development (EMD) on a Cost Plus Incentive Fee (CPIF) basis. A SAC system will consist of a Mobile Base Unit (MBU) integrated on the host vehicle and an Operator Control Unit (OCU) integrated on the control vehicle. The SAC system enables unmanned control of the host vehicle by an operator in the control vehicle. Upon completion of the EMD phase, the Government may exercise the first of two Low Rate Initial Production (LRIP) separately priced twelve month options on a Fixed Price Incentive Firm (FPIF) basis. LRIP option one is for a quantity of 10 RCIS Types I units. These RCIS Type I units will be used for Government-performed testing and evaluation. First article approval will be a requirement of LRIP option one. The second LRIP option may be executed for an additional quantity of 12 RCIS Type I units for a total of 22 LRIP RCIS Type I units. Toward the end of the second LRIP option, the Government may exercise the first of two separately priced options for Full Rate Production (FRP) on a Fixed Price Incentive Firm (FPIF) basis. Option one is for a quantity of 48 RCIS Type I units. FRP option two will be for a quantity of 56 RCIS Type I units, for a total of 104 FRP RCIS Type I units. Upon award of Option 1 for FRP, the Government may exercise the first of two separately priced Interim Contractor Support (ICS) options for the maintenance and sustainment of the SAC systems. ICS will be awarded on a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Level-Of-Effort (LOE) basis. The Contractor shall plan and execute a program that supports and sustains the SAC system to maximize readiness for fielded systems. The Contractor shall provide ICS for SAC System unique components during the initial fielding of production assets. ICS options will co-occur during the two years of FRP. The Contractor will receive as Government Furnished Property (GFP) Delta HMEE (D-HMEE) assets and Buffalo MPCV control vehicles over the course of the LRIP and FRP options, and be responsible for integrating the SAC system hardware and software as verified and validated in EMD.
