A -- ADVANCED TACTICAL & INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM ENGINEERING SUPPORT SOL N66001-96-R-5053 POC Contract Specialist, Caroline Standish, (619)553-4509. Contracting Officer, Mark D. Lopez, (619)553-4538. POC for copy, JC Norris, (619)553-4331. The Naval Command, Control, and Ocean Surveillance Center (NCCOSC), Research, Development, Test and Evaluation Division (NRaD) has been tasked by Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) offices to provide technical support in the concept formulation, design, development, application and evaluation of new sensors, communication and information control concepts as related to radar and infrared sensors and ancillary systems such as communications, navigation, guidance, command and control, and information and planning. The purpose of this contract will be to provide systems engineering and related technical assessment support services for DARPA mandated efforts aimed at the high level concept stage, system design and development, system implementation, testing/demonstration and transitioning of advanced sensor, guidance, communication and navigation technology. Work shall include systems engineering analyses, assessments, real-time system prototyping and testing of sensors and their related subsystems such as signal processing, information processing, data fusion, automation, and operator-interface technology. The scope of the work shall include the development and/or assessment of a variety of advanced sensor systems such as High Resolution Radar, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), LASER, Forward Looking Infrared (FLIR), downward looking IR, and active LIDA systems. Also included is related technology dealing with signal processing algorithms used in automatic target detection, recognition and classification and the utilization of expert systems for information processing, multi-sensor/image algorithm data fusion, simulation and modeling to predict system performance in related systems such as Global Position System (GPS), Line-of-Sight (LOS) and SATCOM communication systems, Maritime systems and test beds for risk assessment, system analyses and performance evaluations. DARPA programs to be supported are; Arsenal Ship, Fast Ship, Small Unit Operations, Unmanned Tactical Aircraft, Geo Location, Low Power GPS, Precision Clock, GGP, Operations Other Than War/Law Enforcement, Bosnia ACTD, DE CATCHER (Acoustic ASW Program) and Battle Assessment Data Dissemination. The period of performance is estimated at a base period of five years with no option periods. The contractor must have a security clearance at the level of top secret. This effort will consist of approximately 530,000 labor hours within the following labor categories: Manager; Sr. Scientist; Sr. Sys/Project Engineer; Sr. Sys Design Engineer; Sr. Systems Analyst; Sr. Hardware Engineer: Sr. Software Engineer, Electrical/Sys Engineer; Software Engineer; Quality Assurance Specialist; Data/Configuration Mgmt. Spec.; Test & Evaluation Engineer; Electronic Technician; Technical Editor and Technical Typist. Facsimile letters are acceptable at (619)553-6976. The solicitation document to be issued on or about 07/22/96. For copies of solicitation only written requests will be honored. (0172)
