Description

The US Army TACOM-ARDEC, Picatinny Arsenal intends to acquire under authority of FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source, for the development, design and production of telemetry requirements for the XM982 Excalibur. This requirement is for a 10 month effort to design and produce a system to gather and transmit crucial elements of data from projectile back to the recording equipment during testing. The designed system will be required to obtain in-flight data and in-bore data while experiencing acceleration forces in excess of 15,000 G's. The data will be in encrypted format. The Government intends to utilize L-3 Communications, Telemetry/East located in Newton, PA. for this effort. Award for this effort is expected in the 2nd QTR 01. The decision for Only One Responsible Source, is based on avoidance of substantial duplication costs and unacceptable delivery delays in the telemetry development, design and production. See Note 22 (Only One Responsible Source) and Note 26 ( Non-Commercial Item).
