- Description
- The Department of the Navy, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Pacific (SSC Pacific) hereby publicizes its intention to solicit, negotiate, and award a Firm-Fixed-Price purchase order on a noncompetitive basis with Keysight Technologies, Inc., located at 9780 S Meridian Blvd., Englewood, CO 80112. The contract will provide one (1) year of software support and maintenance on the Propsim F8 Channel Emulator in support of the Joint Tactical Networking Center (JTNC) radio lab testing. This one year of software support and maintenance will provide calibration of the unit, firmware updates, product and hardware technical support. JTNC conducts end to end radio tests in various radio frequency (RF) conditions. The Propsim F8 Serial Number 800115 is an RF channel emulator used to emulate these various RF channel conditions for radio communications testing by adding impairments such as delay, Doppler, and fading. Maintenance support is necessary as firmware updates regularly come out and calibration allows for more precise and accurate measurements. Keysight Technolgies, Inc. (formerly Anite Telecoms, Inc. and formerly Elektrobit, Inc.) is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of the Propsim F8 Channel emulator for software support and maintenance. Keysight is the only company known to provide calibration and maintenance support, including hardware repair, software and firmware updates for the Propsim F8 Channel emulator to be able to support this requirement. Based on the aforementioned information, only one responsible source and no other supplier or services will satisfy agency requirements in accordance with FAR 13.106 (b)(1) (i). Be advised that the aforementioned information is anticipatory in nature and is not binding. This notice is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any firm believing that they can fulfill the requirement of providing the prototype development services may be considered by the agency. Interested parties may identify their interest and capabilities in response to this synopsis, and must clearly show the firm's ability to be responsive without compromising the quality, accuracy, and reliability of equipment and services provided. Any comments, questions or concerns regarding this notice may be submitted via e-mail to sarah.murr@navy.mil by 31 August 2017.
