The U.S. Army DEVCOM, C5ISR Center, Radar intends for its subject matter experts to review submissions to gain knowledge of industry technology and capabilities. Proprietary information should be clearly marked. The requested information is for planning and market research purposes only and will not be publicly released. In accordance with FAR 15.201(e), responses to this RFI are not offers and cannot be accepted by the Government to form a binding contract. Background and Description: This RFI by the U.S. Army seeks to identify sources to provide the requisite engineering services and technical support in the areas of program management, systems engineering, modeling and simulation, development, testing, analysis, and performance evaluations and assessments necessary for C5ISR Radar to meet its mission and customer needs. This RFI seeks to award a single contract to provide these services to support various radar programs including CTA and airborne MTI and SAR. The objective is to provide C5ISR Radar with capabilities and on-site support focused on Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT&E) of technologies and techniques which can affordably be inserted into existing and/or developmental ground based and airborne radar programs to improve performance, functionality, and survivability. The offeror should indicate interest and expertise in areas such as radar systems engineering, radar signal processing, target classification, Electronic Warfare (EA/EP), EMI/EMC, radar modeling and simulation, radar tracking, and SME support for Army radar systems. This RFI is related to Broad Agency Announcement WK56KGU-19-R-9999: ISR Sub-Topic #1 � Radar Technologies and Techniques, ISR Sub-Topic #2 � Radar Applications, ISR Sub-Topic #4 � Modeling and Simulation which can be found at: https://beta.sam.gov/api/prod/opps/v3/opportunities/resources/files/0288857f4895165e7fd5c3431e1d688e/download?api_key=null&token= Questions and requests will only be accepted in writing, phone calls will not be accepted.
