R -- ICBM SOL F42610-95-R-BBBBC POC For copy, PKX-2/Pamala Chaffee/(FAX)801-777-7522, For additional information contact Ramon Castillo/Lmke/(801)775-2280 The following information is provided to do a Market Survey of Industry to see if there are any potential contractors, in addition to Loral Command and Control Systems (LCCS) who have the knowledge and skills required to compete this effort. This acquisition is for the Rapid Execution and Combat Targeting (REACT) upgrade of the Minuteman III (MMIII) A/M system Missile Maintenance Trainer (MMT) and the MM III B system MMT. The government is in the process of preparing a Justification and Authority (J&A) to proceed with a sole source acquisition to Loral Command and Control Systems, Colorado Springs, CO. The REACT program is a Class V modification to the MMIII Silo-Based Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile (SBICBM) Launch Control Center (LCC). As a result of the REACT modification, the MMTs require upgrade to reflect the new REACT configuration. This upgrade includes: 1) completion of the REACT hardware design to the MMTs, requiring expertise in MMIII SBICBM operational and simulator systems 2) completion of the REACT MMT software design which includes expertise in SBICBM operational and simulation programs and expert knowledge of Ada, Fortran, C, assembly language, graphics and coding 3) provide operational testing of hardware and software through the use of contractor developed and government approved test plans and procedures 4) provide qualification testing of the new REACT MMT software through the use of contractor developed and government approved test plans and procedures 5) provide for the completion of design documentation for the REACT MMT baseline 6) upgrade of REACT MMT hardware 7) installation of REACT MMT hardware and software 8) demonstration of the REACT modified MMT hardware/software. Because the REACT modification is still in progress, the government does not possess the necessary documentation to effectively compete this effort. Therefore, LCCS is currently the only qualified source that possesses the ability and documentation required to complete the REACT MMT upgrade. For this proposed contract action for the modification effort the government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one, or a limited number of sources under the authority of FAR 6.302. Potential offerors may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement. Potential offerors should submit their interest within 10 days after publication of this notice to OO-ALC/LMKE, 6014 Dogwood Ave., Hill AFB, UT 84056-5816, Attn: Ramon Castillo. Information received will normally be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. It is suggested that small business firms or others interested in subcontracting opportunities in connection with the described procurement, make contact with the firm listed.
