- Sources Sought Synopsis Mini-Multiple Treat Emitter System (Mini-MUTES) Common Electronic Attack Receiver (CEAR) 1. Notice This is not a solicitation but rather a Sources Sought Synopsis (SSS) to determine potential sources for information and planning purposes only. The purpose of this Sources Sought is to conduct market research to determine if responsible sources exist, to assist in determining if this effort can be competitive and/or a total Small Business Set-Aside. The proposed North American Industry Classification Systems (NAICS) Code is 334511 which has a corresponding Size standard of 1,250 number of employees. The Government will use this information to determine the best acquisition strategy for this procurement.� The Government is interested in all small businesses to include 8(a) Small Business Development Programs, Service-Disabled Veteran- Owned, Historically Under-utilized Business Zone(s) (HUBZone), and Women-Owned small business concerns. The government requests that interested parties respond to this notice if applicable and identify your small business status to the identified NAICS code. Additionally, please provide any anticipated teaming arrangements, along with a description of similar services offered to the Government and to commercial customers for the past three years.

Description and Requirement Background The AN/MST-T1V Mini-Multiple Treat Emitter System (Mini-MUTES), Program Office at Hill AFB, UT is conducting market research to identify potential sources for a Common Electronic Attack Receiver (CEAR) for Mini-MUTES B-Pedestals variant. The CEAR was developed in 2014 by Syracuse Research Corporation (SRC) to replace the Joint Threat Emitter (JTE) and Unmanned Threat Emitter (UMTE) legacy Electronic Attack Receivers (EAR). The Government currently does not have access to a complete technical data package (TDP) for this requirement. Due to obsolescence, the AN/MST-T1(V) Mini-MUTES Legacy Electronic Counter Measures (ECM) receivers were no longer useable and were replaced by a placeholder ECM receiver for the Mini-MUTES Modernization Proposal (M3P) pedestals, that does not perform the functions required by the system requirements documents. The capability requirement of these documents has never been rescinded, therefore the requirement exists to integrate a receiver (CEAR).� The Legacy ECM receiver, all assemblies, subassemblies, and most components are obsolete and cannot be manufactured from existing drawings or materials. Currently there are no Mini-MUTES B-Pedestals with operational ECM receivers in the field for aircrew training. This Sources Sought is facilitating market research to identify potential sources for re-engineering, testing approximately three (3) developmental, and the manufacture of approximately twenty-three (23) Production Representative Articles (PRAs) CEARs for integration into Mini-MUTES B-Pedestal. Please see the attached draft Statement of Work (SOW). 3.
