A -- FAST RUNNING MODELS FOR NUCLEAR SCENARIO SIMULATION SOL DNA001-95-R-0052 DUE 081595 POC Michael Jackson, Negotiator, (703) 325-9211, Edward Archer, Contracting Officer, (703) 325-5028. The Defense Nuclear Agency (DNA) is seeking assistance in an effort to develop a consistent set of models for predicting the nuclear environments which can produce significant propagation-type and optical effects. Secondary is the requirement to maintain and distribute codes and models associated with atmospheric nuclear effects prediction capability as needed. The contractor shall investigate, analyze and develop methods for generating fast-running models of the nuclear environments necessary for the distribution of an integrated, interactive engagement-level model for the simulation of battlefield events. The initial focus shall be on the operation of Theater Missile Defense (TMD) assets and their associated communications and cueing from overhead of other sensors. Additionally, the contractor shall address problems associated with environments which may affect overhead sensors, using both RF and optical means. The primary phenomenology area is expected to be effects from high altitude (greater than 100 km) bursts. This procurement is a small business set-aside. All contractor personnel will require a DoD security clearance of SECRET. All requests for the RFP must be in writing. Faxed requests are acceptable and should be addressed to the attention of Michael Jackson/AM-1 and faxed to (703) 325-9291. A hard copy need not follow a faxed request. Information on DNA solicitations, already released, can be obtained by calling the DNA Hotline, (703) 325-1173. Reference Synopsis No. 95-68 (0194)
