59 -- SHORTSTOP ELECTRONIC PROTECTION SYSTEM (SEPS) SOL DAAB07-99-R-H021 POC Gail E. Clements, Contracting Officer, 732-532-4385, Allison Lehman, Contract Specialist, 732-532-4042 E-MAIL: click here to email poc, mtobin@nvl.monmouth.army.mil. This is a market survey to locate additional sources for the Shortstop Electronic Protection Systems (SEPS) for an estimated quantity of forty (40). Current source for the item is Condor Electronic Systems, Inc., Simi Valley, California. SEPS is an autonomous, lightweight, fully integrated radio frequency (RF) countermeasure system designed to provide protection for personnel and high value assets against proximity fused indirect munitions, specifically targeted are artiller, mortar and rocket type munitions. Once activated. SEPS employs control algorithms to differentiate a threat signal from a non-threat signal. A confirmed threat signal is then subject to further algorithms and countermeasure techniques that causes source munitions to pre-function. SEPS can be deployed on three configurations: man-pack, vehicle mount and stand-alone. All three configurations utilize a core Receiver/Transmitter (R/T) supplemented with electronic and power modules appropriate for its intended application. SEPS also utilizes a single omni-directional antenna for both receive and transmit functions. SEPS has dual a redundant 1533 interface allowing for integration into multi-system electronic warfare (EW) suite. Additionally, the system has a robust programming capability for customized uses, the front panel, PCMCIA User Data Module (UDM), or 1553 bus. In order to be considered responsive to this market survey, a vendor must submit information sufficient for the government to make a technical assessment of the capabilities of proposed system. At a minimum, this documentation must consist of a system performance specification, system test procedures, reported test results that include live fire testing of proximity fused munitions, photographs and physical characteristics of the proposed system. Customer testimony to the effectiveness of the proposed system and ease of operation is desired. Please send all documentation to the attention of Mary Wills, AMSEL-RD-NV-S/CCD, BLDG 2705, Fort Monmouth, New Jersey, 07703-5008. Telephone (732)427-4187. All responses to be received by 16 Feb 99.
