10 -- PROVIDING PORTABLE RANGE INSTRUMENTATION SYSTEM TO INCLUDED HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE CONFIGURED TO ASSIST IN THE MANAGEMENT OF COMBAT TRAINING EXERCISES. SOL DE-RP04-98AL78283 DUE 043098 POC Point of Contact: Daniel J. Saiz (505) 845-4225. Contracting Officer: Mary-Lynn C. Hartford (505) 845-4661. The US Department of Energy intends to contract with Lockheed Martin Information Systems, located at 600 East Bonita Avenue, Pomoma, CA., on a sole source basis in accordance with FAR 6-302-1, to furnish a portable range instrumentation system consisting of hardware and software configured to assist in the management of combat training exercises. The players are equipped with a man-worn subsystem which provides direct fire simulation and contains an integrated differential global Positioning System (GPS) receiver and a range telemetry transceiver. The base station system consist of one or more portable computers, a GPS reference receiver and one or more range telemetry transceivers. The base station system provides the operator interface to monitor and control all integrated components during exercise play, performs real-time data collection, maintains and displays player position, engagement events and status, calculates and imposes effects of area weapons systems, stores exercise history and displaysexercise history for after-action review. The system requirements are organized into four categories: 1) man-worn subsystem; 2) base station subsystem; 3) common equipment; 4) system documentation. A copy of the portable range instrumentation system specifications can be obtained by contacting Daniel J. Saiz at (505) 845-4225. Responses must include sufficient technical data to allow evaluation using the following criteria; 1) Demonstrated Ability: Prospective vendors must demonstrate a working system which meets the criteria established in the Portable Range Instrumentation System Specifications, dated April 9, 1998. Vendors must also demonstrate the ability to produce and deliver this system by September 14, 1998. 2) Completeness: This system must be delivered as a turn-key, fully operational, system. All system components defined in the Portable Range Instrumentation System Specifications, dated April 9, 1998 must be included in sufficient quantity to instrument and support scenarios of up to 100 players.Additional telemetry channel bandwidth must be available to support a total of 180 players. 3) Timeliness: All equipment must be delivered, setup and made operational prior to September 14, 1998. 4) Mission Requirements: The system must provide complete range instrumentation as defined in the Portable Range Instrumentation System Specifications, dated April 9, 1998. This includes the ability to monitor and control all instrument players within 5 kilometers of the Base Station, report real-time player location and status, and provide scenario replay capability for after action review. 5) System Expandability: The system must be expandable to a minimum of 180 players through the addition of player equipment only, i.e. no hardware or software modifications of the Base Station Subsystem. The system shall be expandable to a maximum of 500 players through the addition of player equipment and telemetry radios. Written responses to this notice should be addressed to the point of contact, Daniel J. Saiz, at the address listed above. Responses should reference DE-RP04-98AL78283. The closing date for responses is April 30, 1998, at 3:00P.M. Albuquerque, NM local time. Should you have any contract questions, please call Daniel J. Saiz at (505) 845-4225, FAX (505) 845-5181. All technical questions should be addressed to Nick Sandoval at (505) 845-5885. (0104)
