The Naval Information Warfare Systems Command (NAVWAR), in support of the Program Executive Office Command, Control, Communications, Computers, and Intelligence (PEO C4I) Communication and Global Positioning System Navigation Program Office (PMW/A 170), intends to extend the period of performance of contract N00039-16-C-0050, awarded to Raytheon Company, Space and Airborne Systems, 1001 Boston Post Road, Marlborough, MA 01752, under the authority of Title 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1), implemented by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 6.302-1. Contract N00039-16-C-0050 was awarded to Raytheon as a sole source contract on 29 December 2015. The current contract period of performance end date will be extended from 28 December 2023 to 28 December 2025 (two additional years). The Request for Proposal (RFP) will include requirements for spares for Navy Multiband Terminal system and engineering support services. The engineering services will support tasking associated with testing, obsolescence, technical support, and NMT terminal deliveries. The engineering support services will also include software maintenance (e.g., recurring security patches and corrections to latent defects) and hardware repairs of Fleet and laboratory CG and AG Lowest Replaceable Units (LRUs) for extended lifecycle sustainment purposes, as well as hardware redesign to address obsolescence of system parts. These services will also include studies and design changes, potentially both hardware and software, to support interface changes required for connection to and operation with externally connected systems, external modems and other baseband equipment, time/frequency distribution systems, and navigation systems. These studies and design changes may also be required for functional changes within the NMT to enable or improve operations with compatible future MILSATCOM systems.
