- Description
- The Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC) is excited to post this announcement for a Request for Project Proposals (RPP) focused on the development of a prototype that supports the integration of medical data with the Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Tactical Assault Kit (TAK) suite of software and hardware in support of an interoperable Medical Command and Control System � Joint (iMCCS-J). BACKGROUND: The overall objective of the iMCCS-J is to support the integration of medical data with the AFRL, TAK suite of software and hardware. The Android Team Awareness Kit (ATAK), for civilian uses, or Android Tactical Assault Kit (also ATAK) for military uses, is a suite of software that provides geospatial information and allows user collaboration over geography. ATAK was originally developed by the AFRL and is now maintained by a Joint Product Center. For more information on TAK: https://www.civtak.org/tag/product-center/ Prototypes being developed must integrate with current software and hardware devices being utilized within the Nett Warrior (NW) situational awareness (SA) and mission command (MC) systems for use during combat operations. A successful prototype will visualize medical data via NW devices within the Android Tactical Assault Kit (ATAK), Windows Tactical Assault Kit (WinTAK), and TAK Servers. The iMCCS-J Medical Common Operational Picture (COP) will identify medical unit locations, unit capacity status, medical evacuation unit capacity status, and patient status. At a higher level, the Medical COP informs the intelligence cycle through wound types and rates which communicates enemy effectiveness, supports trend analysis and enemy situational template. SOLUTION REQUIREMENTS: This RPP aims to establish prototypes with the ability to provide commanders at all levels with visual understanding of how medical capabilities are arrayed throughout the operational environment. iMCCS-J will ingest and visualize data to identify medical unit locations, unit capacity status, medical evacuation unit capacity status, and patient status. At a higher level, iMCCS-J will parse specific data elements from near real-time operational datasets to inform the intelligence cycle through wound types and rates which communicates enemy effectiveness, supports trend analysis, and identifies the enemy situational template. These requirements are derived from the Joint Concept for Health Services, Joint Health Services Joint Publication 4-02, and the Army Health System Doctrine Smart Book. SCOPE OF WORK: This effort shall deliver an initial prototype submission package for the iMCCS-J to the Warfighter Health, Performance and Evacuation (WHPE) Project Management Office (PMO) for submission to TAK and NW. Proposed projects shall demonstrate the ability to develop and integrate near real-time data being captured from battlefield combat units, field medical platforms, and various Medical Treatment Facilities (MTF) data streams with the DoD, and TAK suite of software. A successful prototype will visualize medical data via field NW devices within the Android Tactical Assault Kit (ATAK), WinTAK, and TAK Servers. It is preferred that Offerors have experience with and/or sufficient knowledge of the TAK suite of software. GO/NO-GO DECISION CRITERIA: The Government will perform an initial review of the proposal submissions to determine if the Offeror has clearly demonstrated an intent, as well as the ability, to satisfy the following Go/No Go criteria: ? The Offeror�s proposal shall clearly state that all documents, software, and materials developed under this award, as well as those developed prior to award by the Awardee or other entity, which are needed for full functionality and maintenance of the project deliverables, to include the source codes, algorithms, libraries and additional files required to compile and run the software, will be provided to the Government with Government Purpose Rights or a commercial license granting to the Government rights equivalent to the Government Purpose Rights described herein. ? The Offeror�s proposal shall acknowledge that these documents, software and materials produced under the Award shall not be sold back to a different Government entity as the Government is receiving Government Purpose Rights therein. All documents, materials and software supplied to the Government under this Award shall be conveyable to other government entities and third parties within the limitations of a Government Purpose Rights license as mentioned above, with no notice to or authorization from the Offeror needed. This right does not abrogate any other Government rights. POTENTIAL FOR FOLLOW-ON WORK: There is potential for award of one or more follow-on tasks based on the success of any resultant Research Project Awards (subject to change depending upon Government review of work completed). Note that any potential follow-on work is expected to be awarded non-competitively to resultant project awardees. Potential follow-on tasks include (but are not limited to) procurement, fielding, and sustainment for the iMCCS-J system. POTENTIAL FUNDING AVAILABILITY AND PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE: The U.S. Government (USG) currently has available a total of approximately $5.8 million (M) for this effort. Dependent on the results and deliverables under any resultant award(s), the USG may apply additional dollars and/or allow for additional time for non-competitive follow-on efforts with appropriate modification of the award. MTEC anticipates that a single award will be made. Awards resulting from this RPP are expected to be made as early as Fiscal Year 2021 or in Fiscal Year 2022. The Period of Performance (PoP) is not to exceed five years. ACQUISITION APPROACH: This RPP will be conducted using a single-staged approach. Each proposal submitted must contain both a Technical and Cost Proposal Volume as described in the RPP and must be in accordance with the mandatory format provided in the MTEC Proposal Preparation Guide (PPG). White papers are not required for this RPP. The Government will evaluate Proposals submitted and will select the proposal(s) that best meets their current technology priorities using the criteria specified in the RPP. MTEC: The MTEC mission is to assist the U.S. Army Medical Research and Development Command (USAMRDC) by providing cutting-edge technologies and supporting effective material life cycle management to transition medical solutions to industry that protect, treat, and optimize Warfighters� health and performance across the full spectrum of military operations. MTEC is a biomedical technology consortium collaborating with multiple government agencies under a 10-year renewable Other Transaction Agreement (OTA), Agreement No. W81XWH-15-9-0001, with the U.S. Army Medical Research Acquisition Activity (USAMRAA). MTEC is currently recruiting a broad and diverse membership that includes representatives from large businesses, small businesses, ""nontraditional"" government contractors, academic research institutions and not-for-profit organizations. ADMINISTRATIVE INFORMATION: Full Proposals are due no later than April 29, 2021 at 12:00pm Eastern Time. The RPP is posted to the MTEC website (mtec-sc.org) and a notice is posted on www.beta.SAM.gov to notify interested parties. MTEC membership is required for the submission of a Full Proposal in response to this MTEC RPP. An Offeror submitting a Full Proposal as the prime contractor must be an MTEC member of good standing by April 26, 2021. To join MTEC, please visit http://mtec-sc.org/how-to-join/ A Proposers Conference via webinar will be held for interested parties to have their questions answered by the USG DoD after the RPP is posted. MTEC Members will be notified when the Proposers Conference is scheduled. POINTS OF CONTACT: Please direct your inquiries and correspondence to the following contacts: ? Questions concerning contractual, cost or pricing related to this RPP should be directed to the MTEC Contracts Administrator at mtec-contracts@ati.org ? Technical and membership questions � Dr. Lauren Palestrini, MTEC Director of Research, lauren.palestrini@mtec-sc.org ? Administrative questions � Ms. Kathy Zolman, MTEC Director of Program Operations, kathy.zolman@ati.org
