- SOURCES SOUGHT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR INTEGRATED TACTICAL WARNING/ATTACK ASSESSMENT (ITW/AA) SIMULATION SUPPORT AT OFFUTT AFB, NE AND PETERSON AFB, CO A.�� �INTRODUCTION 1.�� �This is a Sources Sought synopsis being conducted pursuant to FAR Part 10, Market Research. This is for planning purposes only and there is no solicitation available at this time.� 2.�� �This is an initial step in the planning process for on-site technical engineering support and exercise simulation generation support for the Modeling and Simulations Operations Branch (J722) of the Joint Exercise & Training Directorate (J7) of Headquarters United States Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) and exercise scenario generation support for the Modeling and Simulation Branch (J742) of the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and US Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) (N-NC) J7. � Places of performance include: � USSTRATCOM, Offutt Air Force Base, Bellevue, Nebraska and NORAD-USNORTHCOM/J7, Peterson Air Force Base, Colorado Springs, Colorado. The Government is contemplating award of a Firm Fixed Price Contract.� 3.�� �The 55th Contracting Squadron at Offutt Air Force Base, Nebraska, seeks potential sources to provide integrated tactical warning/attack assessment simulation support for USSTRATCOM and NORAD-USNORTHCOM. The potential sources shall:� a.�� �Generate dynamic ITW/AA simulations for the Joint Chiefs of Staff, USSTRATCOM, United States Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM), Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), NORAD-USNORTHCOM, and other forward users to be used on the Processing and Display Sub-system Migration (PDS-M), the Missile Analysis Reporting System (MARS), the Force Survivability Analysis and Management (FSAM), Global Command and Control System (GCCS), and related products as generated from the USSTRATCOM J7 scenario request;� b.�� �Provide a configuration management scheme for the generation and maintenance of scenarios and define applicable quality control methods;� c.�� �Provide NORAD and USNORTHCOM, �Joint Training & Exercise Director (J7), with Correlation Center Emulator (CCE) and Missile Warning Training Suite (MWTS) software engineering, software and simulation enhancement, and command and control (C2) system virtualization and �integration support with the objective to expand the dynamic training capability for NORAD and USNORTHCOM to include: � software engineering, network engineering, software development, software and system integration, C2 system virtualization, developmental and operational testing. �Software development will focus on leveraging the existing work completed by the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) and N-NC on CCE and enhancing the existing CCE software in response to operator identified shortfalls. �The completed CCE product will be integrated with the Air Warfare Simulation (AWSIM) and virtualized C2 systems. � General tasks include: �Software modification and enhancement, including software updates to the MWTS source code, C2 system virtualization, system and C2 system integration, network engineering, development and integration of new and modified message sets into CCE, developmental and operational test of CCE with AWSIM, providing technical expertise in modeling missiles and missile warning radars and space based infrared sensors; supporting the missile warning and missile defense portion of the Tier 1 Combatant Commander;� d.�� �Develop and support an interface between MDA's Missile Defense Training Support System (TSS) or any subsequent replacement software, Integrated Command and Control System (IC2S) strategic missile warning capability -- Combatant Commanders Integrated Command and Control System (CCIC2S) and GCCS. �Potential source must work with teams from MDA and IC2S to ensure protocols are developed and adhered to. �Potential sources shall use Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS), High Level Assembly (HLA) or other agreed upon protocol that would ensure communications between various command and control systems to properly display data on CCIC2S; GCCS or other yet to be determined C2 systems; e.�� �Integrate the output of the Graphic User�s Interface (GUI) with the MWTS, the Protocol Data Unit (PDU) Converter, the Global Sensor Integration on Networks (GSIN) and the GCCS. The GUI shall generate messages in GSIN XML format. Simulation architectures and interfaces shall be compliant with Joint Live, Virtual, and Constructive (JLVC) federation requirements; f.�� �Develop, maintain, and support software utilized in the production of simulations for processing in Nuclear Planning and Execution System (NPES) which supports automated, realistic, dynamic, scalable message generation with near real-time system injection; g.�� �Provide formal configuration management, testing, and validation/verification of product development and integration. This includes the maintenance and development of software tools required to maintain compatibility with systems utilized in the execution of the tasks set out in paragraphs 3(a) � 3(f) above; and h.�� �Provide frequent verbal communication and monthly status reports. �The monthly reports shall include the status of resources, resolution of previously reported problems, summary of the preceding month�s accomplishments, new problems encountered (if any), plans for the following month and the planned deliverables for the next month. 4.�� �Period of Performance: It is anticipated that the contract period will be a base period of approximately one year beginning 13 June 2021, 4 one-year option periods and a six month extension will be available for exercise IAW FAR 52.217-8 Option to Extend Services.� 5.�� �The North American Industrial Classification Systems (NAICS) code is 541512, Computer Systems Design Services, �which has a small business standard of $30M. � B.�� �INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS:� 1.�� �All businesses capable of providing these services are invited to respond. Any information provided to the Government as a result of this sources sought synopsis is voluntary and the Government will not pay for any information submitted. Respondents are requested to submit capability packages electronically, as described below.� a.�� �Requested information listed below must be received no later than 1430 hours (Central Daylight Time) on 2 June 2020. b.�� �Information package responses shall be sent via email to angela.leroy@us.af.mil and luis.stump.1@us.af.mil c.�� �Information Package: Respondents must include the following information 1.�� �Company name� 2.�� �Address� 3.�� �Point of contact with e-mail address and telephone number� 4.�� �Federal CAGE Code� 5.�� �Data Universal Numbering System (DUNS)� 6.�� �Small business category� C.�� �GOVERNMENT RESPONSIBILITY: This Sources Sought Notice is not a solicitation, and should not be construed as a commitment by the Government for any purpose, nor does is restrict the Government to an ultimate acquisition approach. Any information submitted by respondents to this sources sought is strictly voluntary and any offer submitted by such a firm will be evaluated without prejudice.
