L -- TECHNICAL SUPPORT FOR LASER LINE SCAN SENSORS SOL N61331-99-R-0043 DUE 092499 POC Contract Specialist, John Miller, (850) 235-5399; Contracting Officer, Carol Dreger, (850) 234-4863 WEB: www.ncsc.navy.mil/contracts/synopsis/syntable.htm, www.ncsc.navy.mil. E-MAIL: Miller_John@ncsc.navy.mil, Miller_John@ncsc.navy.mil. The Coastal Systems Station (CSS) owns Laser Line Scan (LLS) sensors that were designed and fabricated by Raytheon Electronic Systems (RES). These sensors are frequently deployed for tests and demonstrations. These tests and demonstrations are typically intended to resolve technical issues concerning underwater laser based electro-optic imaging systems, to advance the state-of-the-art in underwater laser based electro-optic imaging system technology, and/or to test or demonstrate the military utility of the sensors. CSS requires technical support from RES to support these activities. CSS intends to award on a sole-source basis an Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity Contract (IQC) to RES for the required technical support. The basis for this sole-source is that the government does not own any of the technical data required to perform these actions. In addition, these sensors incorporate Raytheon proprietary designs. The scope of this effort will include 1) hardware and software maintenance of the sensors, 2) hardware and software modification of the sensors, 3) technical analysis, design, and development to support sensor modification, 4) modeling, 5) associated image and signal processing algorithm development, implementation, and testing, 6) testing and test support, and 7) data analysis. The total contract period of performance will be five years. Note 22 Applies. Posted 08/05/99 (W-SN363558). (0217)
