58 -- REQUEST FOR INFORMATION: MOBILE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROL SYSTEMS POC Ms. Barbara Lawrence, Contracting Officer, 617-377-6419. Mobile ATC Radar Systems. This notice is issued for the purpose of gathering information on systems/technologies that could be used to replace/upgrade the AN/TPN-19 and the AN/MPN-14K Landing Control Central systems. The AN/TPN-19 and the AN/MPN-14K function as tactical radar approach control/ground controlled approach (RAPCON/GCA) radars. These systems currently provide terminal control capabilities through an airport surveillance radar (ASR), identification by a secondary surveillance radar (SSR), and precision landing capability through the use of precision approach radar (PAR). Contractors presenting information on specific subsystems should also address their approach to interfacing with the other subsystems. NDI and/or COTS equipment and software should be utilized to the greatest extent practicable. Any suggested replacement/upgrade should meet the following requirements: (1) Employ a digital ASR; (2) Possess an Identification Friend or Foe (IFF) function; (3) Be transportable by all of the following: C-130, C-141, C-5, and C-17 aircraft; (4) Be capable of interfacing with the future National Airspace System. In addition, the Government would find the following features desirable: (1) An ATCRBS upgradeable to provide Mode-S capability; (2) Reduced transport and deployment times; (3) Reduced staffing levels; (4) Modular configuration. The Government is also interested in receiving contractor's rough order of magnitude (ROM) costs, including associated logistics (contractor support and/or organic Government depot) until the year 2020. Contractors interested in providing their concepts should forward any appropriate information to ESC/TG, Hanscom AFB, 01731-5000, ATTN: Ms. Barbara Lawrence (ESC/TGK), 617-377-6419. Responses should be received no later than 30 days after the date of this publication. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this notice or to otherwise pay for the information solicited except as provided in subsection 31.205-18, Bid and Proposal (B&P) costs of the Federal Acquisition Regulation.
