- Description
- RFPP Attachment 0001- Unclassified Statement of Objectives (SOO) This is a notice to announce a Request for Project Proposal (RFPP) through the Sensors, Communications, and Electronics Consortium (SCEC) for the Next Generation Combat Vehicle (NGCV) Sensors prototype effort. The Army is developing the NGCV, which provides combat vehicle overmatch in close combat against the pacing threat. In support of NGCV, CERDEC NVESD requires development, automation, integration, testing, and demonstration of various intelligent sensor prototypes to provide improved situational awareness, threat detection, targeting, and target hand-off capabilities. Different sensor types are required to provide these capabilities and must demonstrate interoperability within a surrogate vehicle system for a proof of concept system of systems demonstration. The Army's NGCV requires multiple intelligent sensor systems working together, mounted on a surrogate vehicle, that are ruggedized and interoperable using a common architecture for static and on-the-move applications. A teaming arrangement of vendors is expected to design and develop intelligent sensor prototypes that provide enhanced capabilities as part of a combined arms team in the future operating environment. It is anticipated that each intelligent sensor technology prototype capability will be developed independently with compatibility and synchronization performed by an Intelligent Sensor Integrator to insure interoperability. One of the high level objectives of the program is to develop improved sensors, with automated capabilities to reduce workload and improve detection of threats, at an accelerated pace compared to conventional acquisition timelines. CERDEC NVESD requires design and development of prototypes (as identified in Attachment 0001- SOO) that demonstrate advanced sensor suites, algorithms and processing and will be integrated first in a laboratory environment and followed by integration on up to three (3) manned and up to three (3) unmanned vehicles. Please be aware that the enclosed SOO is unclassified, however, certain documents/specifications for this project announcement are marked Distribution C, "For Official Use Only (FOUO)." For an SCE Consortium member to receive these FOUO documents, a DD Form 2345 must be on file with the SOSSEC Inc. Data Custodian, Debra Paine (dpaine@sossecinc.com), to enable receipt of FOUO documents related to this project. This request is issued according to the authority provided under 10 U.S.C. 2371b, Other Transaction Authority for Prototypes. If interested in participating as a consortium member, contact the following: Eugene Del Coco 570-236-9889 edelcoco@sossecinc.com John Nunziato 603-458-5529 jnunziato@sossecinc.com
