- Description
- AFLCMC/HNJW (Electronic Warfare Branch) is publishing the attached Two-Step Closed CSO with Calls in order to obtain innovative solutions or potential new capabilities to fulfill requirements, close capability gaps, or provide potential technological advancements in specific capability areas highlighted in the attached CSO. This CSO will allow a Two-Step submission (step 1-white paper & if requested, step 2- proposal) in response to a posted Call. Throughout the five-year period this CSO full text announcement is posted, AFLCMC/HNJW reserves the right to amend, add, or remove Areas of Interest at any time. Submission information and instructions will be identified at the Call level. AFLCMC/HNJW is interested in capabilities from all qualified vendors to include, but not limited to, traditional defense contractors, nontraditional defense contractors, large businesses, small businesses and research institutions (collectively referred as vendors). AFLCMC/HNJW is seeking to apply unique solutions and innovative ideas to rapidly develop technologies of novel capabilities; and characterize new technologies and system concepts that provide evolutionary, revolutionary, and disruptive capabilities for the United States Air Force through systems requirements development, prototyping, studies, and demonstrations. AFLCMC/HNJW is developing a modular, upgradable Next Generation Aircraft Protection system based upon open architecture standards. This CSO seeks to identify eligible vendors that are capable of developing part (or all) of this Next Generation Aircraft Protection system. AFLCMC/HNJW has defined four areas of interest for the Next Generation Aircraft Protection system: System Architecture, Modeling and Simulation The Detect Layer (Sensing) The Decide Layer (Processing) The Defeat Layer (Countermeasures and Effectors) AFLCMC/HNJW is seeking industry partners that have experience in the following areas: Advanced sensor technologies (including but not be limited to radio frequency sensing (HF-EHF), optical sensing (infrared, visible, ultraviolet) to include laser warning receivers, and acoustic sensing) Advanced processing (hardware, software, and algorithms) Advanced countermeasures (kinetic and non-kinetic: including but not limited to RFCM (radar, comms) and Electro/Optical CM as well as non-traditional, emerging technologies such as High-Power Microwave and other-directed energy techniques) System or subsystem submissions must have demonstrable compliance with Agile Mission Suite (AMS) Government Reference Architecture (GRA), or include a technical roadmap showing the pathway to compliance. This CSO contains Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). For the Contracting Officer to grant/authorize access to the attachments, vendors must have completed the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) assessments and uploaded it to Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS). Your entity NIST assessments must be documented in SPRS and must be current (date of assessment must not be older than 3 years). See the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS) 252.204- 7019 and 252.204-7020.
