The Marine Corps Systems Command intends to award a SAP to Carlisle Research, Inc (CRI) to conduct a study to determine the feasibility of using the AN/AYK-14 Computer Unit Operating System (CU OS) v109.5 program in its AN/TYQ-23(V)4 Tactical Air Operations Module (TAOM). The baseline of the subject software was originally developed by Litton Data Systems under the TAOM/MCE Program and was then significantly modified by the U.S. Air Force Ground Theater Air Control Systems (GTACS) Software Consortium (SWC). The study requires a detailed understanding of the system and performance requirements of the TYQ-23 and an understanding of the software performance specifications and detailed design of the TYQ-23(V)1, (V)3, and (V)4. The study is intended to be a joint effort between Litton Data Systems, the developer of the current software used in the TYQ-23(V)4, and Carlisle Research, Inc (CRI), the lead developer in the GTACS SWC. Litton Data Systems' performance on this effort is provided for under an existing contract. No RFP is available for competitive bidding; however, interested parties are encouraged to submit a statement of capability for satisfying this requirement. No telephonic requests will be accepted. Make all requests to the contact person listed above. See Note 22. Posted 02/23/99 (W-SN301457). (0054)
