- CALL 0001 entitled ""Research and Development Satellite Assessment (RaDSAt)""� Issued Under Directed Energy Technology Experimentation Research (DETER) Advanced Research Announcement (ARA) FA9451-21-S-0001 GENERAL INFORMATION� NAICS Code & Small Business Size:�The NAICS�Code for this acquisition is 541715 Research and Technology in the Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (except Nanotechnology and Biotechnology). The small business size standard is 1,000 employees. Federal Agency Name: Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL), Directed Energy Directorate, Space-Electro-Optics, AFRL/RDS ARA Title: Directed Energy Technology Experimentation Research (DETER) ARA Number: FA9451-21-S-0001 Call Title: Research and Development Satellite Assessment (�RaDSAt�) Call Announcement Number: Initial Call 0001 Announcement Call Type: Closed Two-Step Call where white papers and proposal submittals shall be due within specified periods. Estimated Value: $36M for total RaDSAt program (STARS $14.5M;�SATURN $21.5M) DETER Topic Areas: � � ��IV. Directed Energy Effects Testing � � � �V. Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis (MS&A) � � �VII. Innovative Space Domain Awareness Purpose of Issuing Call: The Air Force Research Laboratory, Directed Energy Directorate� Electro Optics Division (AFRL/RDS) is seeking white papers which could potentially result in award(s) of �Arrangements� under 10 U.S.C. � 2373 to fulfill some of the Satellite Assessment Center�s needs. Overview� Air Force Research Laboratory (AFRL) Satellite Assessment Center (SatAC) overarching objectives include accelerating the advancement of Directed Energy (DE) modeling, simulation, analysis and assessment knowledge and technical capabilities to support protection of strategic United States (US) Space interests. In this way, the Satellite Assessment Program (SatAP) directly participates in and contributes to achievement of strategic US national Space goals, such as the 2020 Defense Space Strategy (DSS) objective to �Maintain Space Superiority.� SatAC scope is organized in four, interdependent technical areas: 1) Space Object Data and Information Curation; 2) DE Effects Modeling, Simulation Analysis, and Assessment; 3) DE Modeling, Simulation, Analysis, and Assessment Tool Development; and 4) SatAC Infrastructure Modernization.� The SatAC mission integrates the four technical areas defined above through agile design, development, experimentation, and test activities focused on improving supply quality and delivery speed by which SatAP mission partner requirements are satisfied in response to increasing demand, emerging requirements, and evolving, dynamic threat environments. Although the RaDSAt program requirements collectively include all four technical areas identified above, the Government intends to award two Arrangements under this call:�one Arrangement for Satellite Assessment Tools for Unique Research Needs (SATURN), and one Arrangement for Satellite Threat Assessment and Research Studies (STARS). The STARS acquisition scope addresses only Technical Areas #1 and� #2, whereas the SATURN�acquisition scope addresses Technical Areas #3 and #4. The Arrangement(s) are�the prevailing agreement(s) between the parties. Orders will likely be issued under each Arrangement. � Statement of Objective/Needs� Arrangement 1: Satellite Threat Assessment and Research Studies (STARS)� Key SatAC operational goals will be realized through the STARS�program. STARS program will satisfy requirements for data and information collection, as well as production and delivery of SatAC supplies to mission partners. SatAC supplies include Directed Energy (DE) effects analyses, assessments, models, simulations, and related intelligence products that enable SatAC mission partner experimentation in the Space Control (SC), Space Domain Awareness (SDA), and Defensive Counter Space (DCS) operational domains. The Offeror shall present methods on the development and modernization of items including, but not limited to: � ��a) Satellite Assessment Center (SatAC) Data & Information Curation� � � � � (1) Satellite and Space Object Data and Information Collection� � � � � (2) Data and Information Quality Management� � � � � (3) Data and Information Access Management� � ��b)�Directed Energy Effects,�Models, Simulations, Analyses and Assessments � � � � (1) Threat Assessment� � � � � (2) Materials Research� � � � � (3) Satellite Resiliency Research � � � � (4) Satellite Information Folders (SIFs)� � � � � (5) Probabilistic Risk Assessment� � � � See STARS Statement of Objectives for more detail. Arrangement 2: Satellite Assessment Tools for Unique Research Needs (SATURN)��� � Key SatAC operational goals will be realized through the SATURN�program. SATURN will modernize production and delivery of SatAC supplies, through modernization and enhancement of existing SatAC DE Modeling Simulation, Analysis and Assessment tools and infrastructure modernization. The Offeror shall present methods on the development and modernization of items including, but not limited to: � � ��a)�Directed Energy Modeling, Simulation, and Analysis Tool Development� � � � � � (1) Materials Analysis Software Development and Sustainment� � � � � � (2) Photometric and Radiometric Modeling Software� � � � � � (3) Military Utility Assessment Software Development� � � � � � (4) Threat Engagement Modeling (TEM) Software Development� � � � � � (5) Probablistic Risk Assessment (PRA) Modeling Software Development� � � � � � (6) Satellite Database and Knowledge Repository Development � � � � � (7) Multi-Domain Space Testbed Development� � � � b) SatAC Infrastructure Modernization� � � � See SATURN Statement of Objectives for more detail.
