70 -- DMSP SOLAR ANALYST WORK STATION DUE 040999 POC Contract Negotiator, 2nd Lt Damian Benigno, (310) 336-4317; Contracting Officer, Mr. William S. Trombetta, (310) 336-4460; Technical Representative, Mr. Kevin Scro, (719) 556-2792 The Solar Analyst Workstation (SAWS) will provide remote command and control of four Solar Electro-Optical Observing Network (SEON) sites. Each site will have three sensors, the Solar Radio Spectrograph (SRS), the Solar Radio Burst Locator (SRBL), and the Improved Solar Optical Observing Network (ISOON). These sensors will provide the Air Force data needed to analyze the impact of solar activity on the near-earth space environment. SAWS will ingest data and imagery from up to three active SEON sites (determined by local time-of-day and local conditions), provide command and control of the SEON sensors, ingest data and imagery from other solar monitoring sources such as SOHO, Yohkoh, and the planned Solar X-ray Imager. It will allow manipulation of data and imagery for analysis, generate warning, alert, and other products, and interact with the Space Environment Operations Center database. This effort is anticipated to be predominately software rehost and the development of display and analysis tools. Asingle end-item is anticipated, although it will consist of multiple hardware and software components. Delivery of the system will allow all four SEON sites, currently anticipated to be in Moron, Spain, Kaena Point, Oahu, HI, Learmonth, Australia, and Holloman AFB, NM, to distribute their data to a central location currently anticipated to be at Colorado Springs, CO. System delivery will include appropriate hardware and software at these five sites. This effort will also include the analysis and recommendation of an appropriate communications solution between these sites (hardware and software) to satisfy these requirements. Ongoing studies may cause some of the locations to be modified. Delivery is anticipated to be approximately 12 months from contract award date (7 Jun 99), but offerors will be free to propose alternate delivery schedules consistent with the detailed requirements. All interested parties are invited to submit a statement of capabilities not to exceed five pages in length no later than 15 days after publication.***** Posted 03/12/99 (W-SN307984). (0071)
