E-MAIL: Jerry Maggard, Jerry.Maggard@robins.af.mil. Single Container Advanced Radar Simulator Acquisition (SCARS) for the Air Force Electron Combat Product Group CAUTION This market survey is being conducted to identify existing sources of non-developmental electronic combat simulators for the Air Force Electronic Combat Product Group as described in the linked SCARS Capability Survey. Foreign participation is not allowed in this sources sought synopsis nor in any future solicitations or contract awards. Only U.S. contractors/institutions with SECRET personnel and facility clearances may participate. Contractors/Institutions responding to this market research are placed on notice that participation in this survey may not ensure participation in future solicitations or contract awards. The government will not reimburse participants for any expenses associated with their participation in this survey. 1. Hyper-linked below are two documents: (1) SCARS Capability Survey which describes the information sought for non-developmental flightline electronic combat RF simulators and (2) Sales History Survey which describes the information sought on the sales history for submitted simulator designs. 2. If after reviewing the surveys, you desire to participate in the market research, you should provide responses to the areas of the SCARS Capability Survey where your simulator designs possess the described capability. You may submit more than one survey response if there are multiple designs that you wish to be evaluated. Failure to provide the information sought by the survey questions may result in the government being unable to adequately evaluate your simulator designs. If your simulator design lacks capability in a particular area, please provide details explaining how you would overcome the lack of capability in order to perform that portion of the requirement. Participants are also required to provide the information requested in the Sales History Survey for each simulator design that is proposed. Failure to provide the sales history information as requested will disqualify any SCARS Capability Survey that is submitted for evaluation. 3. Both large and small businesses are encouraged to participate in this Market Research. Joint ventures or teaming arrangements are encouraged to the degree that they are necessary for manufacturing or modifying non-developmental designs. 4. Participants must be proven designers, developers, and manufacturers of flightline based electronic combat RF simulators. All simulator designs submitted for evaluation must be non-developmental and must have been manufactured and sold to a customer within the past two years. Participants must identify the customers who have received or purchased the submitted simulator designs along with the address and phone number for the customer point of contact. Potential sources must be capable of providing engineering services for modification, upgrade, integration, operation, programming, and maintenance/repair for their submitted simulator designs. 5. All submitted simulator designs must be intended for use in a flightline environment where temperature, humidity, and contaminants are not controlled for computing systems and equipment. Systems designed specifically for laboratory or backshop use are not permitted. 6. Participants may be required to demonstrate manufacturing facilities, methods and processes available for manufacturing the simulators. Participants may also be required to demonstrate that the simulator designs address the capabilities discussed in the SCARS Capability Survey. Demonstrations may take several forms or combinations of forms. Examples include formal demonstrations and submission of specifications for the designs as delivered to other customers. 7. Participants must be export control certified and must provide a copy of their approved DD Form 2345, Military Critical Data Agreement, with their response. Certification may be obtained through the Defense Logistics Services Center (DLSC), Battle Creek, MI 49016-3412, telephone number 1-800-352-3572. 8.
