The Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command intends to issue a solicitation for a firm fixed price contract, valued at approximately $3M, to procure common VME chassis for FY 99 (approximately 57 chassis) with annual options for FY 00 through FY 02 (approximately 50 chassis per each option year). SPAWAR intends to award this contract on a competitive basis, 100% set aside to small businesses covered under SIC Code 3663. The small business size standard for SIC Code 3663 is a business, including its affiliates, with no more than 750 employees. Please refer to FAR Part 19 for additional detailed information on Small Business Size Standards. The VME chassis shall be used for both the Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) Interface Processors (TIP) and the Navy Extremely High Frequency (EHF) Circuit Card (NECC). This procurement will provide for a common VME chassis that will implement their complementary capabilities. The document that describes the military specifications, design, construction, performance, and testing requirements for the combined NECC and TIP chassis -- a Ruggedized Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) item -- will be provided when the Request for Proposal (RFP) is issued. SPAWAR intends to issue the RFP electronically on the SPAWAR Homepage (http://c4iweb.spawar.navy.mil/02/) on around 22 October 1998. Because of delivery requirements (deliveries beginning in March 1999), the Government intends to award this contract in the mid- but no later than late November 1998 timeframe.
