INTRODUCTION The Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), Air-Anti Submarine Warfare (ASW) Systems Program Office (PMA-264) located in Patuxent River, MD announces its intention to award a sole source delivery order to The Boeing Company under the terms of Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) N00019-16-G-0001 to address P-8A Poseidon Increment 3 (INC3) Acoustics (I3A) Correction of Deficiency (COD) tasks. Interested parties may identify their interest and capability to respond to the requirement no later than 15 days after Sources Sought Notice Date. PLACE OF PERFORMANCE Location % of Effort Government (On-Site) Contractor (Off-Site) Huntington Beach, CA 80% 0% 80% California, MD 10% 0% 10% Patuxent River, MD 10% 10% 0% DISCLAIMER “THIS SOURCES SOUGHT IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. IT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A SOLICITATION AND SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A COMMITMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. RESPONSES IN ANY FORM ARE NOT OFFERS AND THE GOVERNMENT IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO AWARD A CONTRACT AS A RESULT OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. NO FUNDS ARE AVAILABLE TO PAY FOR PREPARATION OF RESPONSES TO THIS ANNOUNCEMENT. ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED BY RESPONDENTS TO THIS TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION IS STRICTLY VOLUNTARY.” PROGRAM BACKGROUND Boeing is currently the provider of the Acoustic Operational Flight Program (AOFP) software in support of the P-8A Poseidon Multi-Mission Aircraft, to include Increment 3 (INC3) Acoustics (I3A) software. This effort will provide continued support for the P-8A INC 3 Integration and Test (I&T) Activities and the Corrections of Deficiency that result from those events. The P-8A Poseidon INC3 program is made up of an incremental approach via delivery of Block 1 (Engineering Change Proposal ((ECP)) - 4 and ECP-5) and Block 2 (ECP-6 and ECP-7) capabilities. ECP-6 is comprised of a variety of capabilities, which includes Net Ready Acoustic Architecture Migration (NRAAM). Whereas, ECP-7 includes only Multi-static Active Coherent Enhancements (MAC-E) capability, which leverages NRAAM as the baseline. NRAAM refers to the porting of the P-8A Poseidon Acoustics Subsystem (PAS) (also known as AOFP) from the INC 2 baseline architecture into a new Software Oriented Architecture (SOA). MAC-E includes a variety of enhancements made to baseline MAC in order to support a larger search area in deep water environments. While both of these capabilities (NRAAM and MAC-E) have been largely developed, there is still a need for COD once these products are fully integrated and tested with the other P-8A subsystems. This requirement is a continuation of N00019-16-G-0001, DO 2001, currently being performed by The Boeing Company. The existing delivery order consists of both Cost Plus Incentive Fee (CPIF) and Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) Contract Line Item Numbers (CLINs). The projected award date of this delivery order is October 2020. The anticipated Period of Performance (PoP) for this DO will be broken out as follows: ECP-6 COD CLIN from October 2020 to June 2023 and ECP-7 COD CLIN from October 2021 to June 2024. REQUIREMENTS The P-8A Poseidon INC3 Acoustics (I3A) Correction of Deficiency (COD) tasks include hardware and software technology enhancements or improvements, engineering analyses and evaluations, and I&T support. These efforts will be in support of the I&T phases of I3A ECP-6 NRAAM and ECP-7 MAC-E programs. The Software Trouble Reports (STRs) that come from ECP-6 and ECP-7 I&T events will require modifications to the I3A software. SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS Performance of this effort requires the contractor to have access to classified information up to and including TOP SECRET. The contractor’s facility must be approved by the Defense Security Service to process and maintain classified material at the TOP SECRET level. The contractor must have computer information systems approved at the TOP SECRET level. Businesses should be compliant with Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) Level III with regard to software development and system integration (hardware, software, testing, and project management). The proposed acquisition will include a Conflict of Interest Solicitation provision and Contract Clause as set forth in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 9.5. ELIGIBILITY The applicable North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this requirement is 336411. The Product Service Code (PSC) is AC64. Businesses of all sizes are encouraged to respond; however, each respondent must clearly identify their business size in their capabilities statement.
