- THIS IS A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION (RFI). THIS IS NOT A SOLICITATION. This RFI is issued solely for information and planning purposes as part of Marine Corps market research; it does not constitute a Solicitation. No solicitation document currently exists to support this requirement and a formal solicitation may or may not be issued by the Government as a result of the responses to this RFI. The Government will not be liable for any expenses associated with preparation of an RFI response, nor is the Government obligated in any manner based on a response submission. Responses to this RFI will be used to determine an acquisition strategy. Background: The Distributed Common Ground System (DCGS-MC) Geospatial Intelligence (GEOINT) Program of Record provides the Marine Corps with the imagery analysis, targeting material production, geospatial analysis, and geodetic production material solutions necessary to support the DCGS-MC GEOINT requirements for the Marine Corps. DCGS-MC GEOINT is a secure, multi-level, integrated, tactical data system that provides Marine analysts with the capability to task, collect, process, analyze, exploit, produce, store, disseminate, and expose GEOINT data and products. DCGS-MC GEOINT provides geo-referenced data and products that establish the GEOINT foundation for battlespace visualization and a common frame of reference to support the commander�s decision-making process. It enables the ability to rapidly respond to, or predict, threats around the world by providing near real-time geospatially referenced data and products that serve as the Authoritative Data Source for the full spectrum of Marine Air-Ground Task Force, joint, and multinational partners operations. DCGS-MC GEOINT Systems are capable of publishing GEOINT products to the DCGS Integration Backbone via automated or manual methods. Objective: Marine Corps Systems Command (MCSC) is seeking capable sources for the procurement of a small Unmanned Aircraft system (sUAS) MultiSpectral Instrument (MSI) sensor, specifically a MicaSense Altum-PT MSI sensor or equivalent, that can be mounted on a SkyRaider R80D and meets the below requirements: MSI Sensor Spectral bands Blue, Green, Red, Red Edge, Near-Infrared (IR) Panchromatic band Electro-optical (EO) Thermal band Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) Max 6 cm ground sample distance at 120 m collection Must support disabling of Wi-Fi and/or Bluetooth All electronic components of the system shall be Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliant. Compliance with Executive Order 13981 and Fiscal Year 2020 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) Sec 848 sUAS Platform: R80D SkyRaider Specifications Maximum mass of 3.5 Kilogram (kg) Minimum natural frequency of 35 Hertz (Hz) Width, height, and length will not interfere with R80D operations Data Transfer to Workstation Removable media Removable media can be encrypted (Objective) Images should contain location data Raw data processing software Runs on Windows 11 based operating systems Submission Instructions: All responsible sources may submit information regarding their technical capabilities to meet the above requirements.
