- Description
- W911QY-17-R-0023 ULCANS Draft Solicitation As part of the ULCANS pre-solicitation notice the draft solicitation has been made available for industry comments and feedback. The draft solicitation is available for download on FBO and also from the ULCANS website noted below. ULCANS website: http://www3.natick.army.mil/team/ULCANS.aspx The ULCANS Increment I program represents a comprehensive effort to develop, procure and field the next generation of ULCANS to replace legacy ULCANS currently being used in the field. ULCANS Increment I program will develop new Arctic and Urban ULCANS variants, and system upgrades to the existing Woodland and Desert ULCANS variants for defeating current and emerging sensor threats addressed by the National Ground Intelligence Center (NGIC) concerns on emerging foreign sensor capability. ULCANS must continue to provide the warfighter with capabilities for increased survivability and multi-spectral signature suppression to counter visual, near-infrared, shortwave infrared and radar threats, and thermal signature suppression. The government anticipates the solicitation will result in the initial award of three Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ), Firm Fixed Price (FFP) type contracts for the development and production of the ULCANS Increment I. Upon completion of the competitive prototyping (CP) testing, the government will conduct a comparative evaluation to down-select to one vendor who will move forward into the developmental test phase. The contract is anticipated to be a FFP IDIQ contract, with an estimated value of $480M over a 10-year ordering period. An award will be made to the offeror whose proposal represents the best value to the government considering a tradeoff of price and non-price factors. Potential offerors are encouraged to provide comments to the government on the "DRAFT Solicitation". Please submit any comments or questions to Nicole Bernier at nicole.e.bernier.civ@mail.mil with the subject line "Comments ULCANS Draft Solicitation W911QY-17-R-0023". Questions may not be answered based on the "DRAFT Solicitation" and submitted comments. The formal solicitation is expected to be released in late June, 2017.
