The Office of Naval Research intends to negotiate on a sole source basis firm-fixed price purchase orders with Lockheed Martin Government Electronics Systems, Northrop Grumman Corporation, Boeing Defense and Space Group, and Raytheon Systems Comany for support of the Advanced Multifunction RF System (AMRFS) Steering Committee. The AMRFS Steering Committee is the oversight panel for the general AMRFS effort. The panel will be made up of Government and Contractor personnel and the above Contractor's have been chosen as the Contractor representatives on the panel. The general duties of the panel members are to ensure that the program remains on schedule, milestones are being completed, new technology information is available to the system designers, there are no "show-stoppers" in the program, nothing is overlooked that could benefit the program, interfaces and interface requirements are defined, and AMRFS is ready for concept demonstration as scheduled. The four contractors named above were chosen because they have a good working knowledge of the AMRFS program and have been or are involved in AMRFS technology studies. They are familiar with the Open System Architecture and the Radar, Electronic Warfare (EW) which includes Electronic Support (ES) and Electronic Attack (EA), and Communications Multifunction Aperture Requirements. The period of performance will be 9 months.***** Posted 02/18/99 (W-SN299526). (0049)
