Delivery FOB Origin -- The Embedded Global Positioning System/Inertial
Navigation System (EGI) is manufactured by both Honeywell (F-14B, S-3B,
AH-1W) and Litton (F/A-18A/B, EA-6B) for the Navy. There are other
service platforms for the Army and Air Force. The EGI contract, via
Wright Patterson AFB (WPAFB) ASC/SMYB, was competed between Litton and
Honeywell, which resulted in the award of Navy platforms as shown
above to the two vendors. This proposed BOA delivery order will be for
F-14B and S-3B EGI requirements to Honeywell Inc. The F-14B is
installing a total of 67 aircraft with EGI and S-3B is installing a
total of 116 aircraft. The FY-99 procurements, to be made on the
NAVICP/Honeywell BOA, is for a total of 20 F-14B units and 32 S-3B
units. The NAVICP/Honeywell BOA will be utilized to place only an FY-99
EGI order to meet critical government installation schedules beginning
in Dec 99 for the S-3B and Jan 00 for the F-14. The expired Air Force
contract number for Honeywell is F33657-93-C-0002, the expired Litton
contract number is F33657-94-C-2181. The EGI is a navigation systems
which provides GPS solutions, inertial navigation solutions, and a
blended GPS/inertial solution. The EGI uses a state-of-the-art ring
laser gyro and a GPS receiver on a single card. The EGI is unique for
each user in hardware and software. This process is referred to as
missionization. The EGI requires an adapter mounting plate for F-14
which is permanently attached to the EGI chasis. The adapter mounting
plate allows installation in existing ASN-92 mounting holes in
aircraft. The S-3 does not require a mount for installation. The Navy
will contract via WPAFB for the warranty and production related
non-recurring engineering at a later date and do not require that to be
priced on the NAVICP BOA. The estimated value of the proposed BOA
delivery order is $4,103,000., See Note 22 (ACAVI0708015-077) Posted
