The purpose of the system is to enhance the Very Low Frequency/Low Frequency (VLF/LF) communications capabilities that provide secure command and control communications to the Strategic and Tactical submersible forces, and the National Airborne Operations Center (NAOC) E-4B airborne platform. The HPTS utilizes two separate Trailing Wire Assemblies (Long Wire, and Short Wire) to maintain constant line of communications. The HPTS system consists of well over Four Hundred (400) Weapon Replaceable Assemblies (WRA), Shop replaceable assemblies (SRA), and Lowest replaceable units (LRU). �Firms that believe they can demonstrate their capabilities to perform the requirements described in this Sources Sought posting shall provide a written response to this announcement, consisting of the following: 1) A submission of your firms detailed capabilities to meet the requirements herein, including any teaming arrangements, etc., which you plan to utilize. 2) Past and/or current performance on similar contracts (include contract number, dollar value, brief description of scope, and point of contact name, job title, phone number, and email address). 3) Ability to obtain access to proprietary information/data from Collins Aerospace to perform the required tasking.
