This Sources Sought is being posted to the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) page located at http://www.fbo.gov. The Naval Surface Center, Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) intends to procure the development, repair, and procurement of Global Positioning System/Inertial Navigation System (GPS/INS) and Selective Availability Anti-Spoofing Module (SAASM) Systems. This requirement is in support of the Battle Management System (BMS). The effort will be solicited in accordance with other than full and open competition with Applied Systems Engineering, Inc, (ASEI), who is uniquely qualified to conduct the tasks required by this effort and who is the sole supplier of the Advanced Tactical Navigator (ATACNAV) system. The ATACNAV systems are the only GPS receivers with the form, fit, function, capability and mechanical design footprint of the current BMS program design. Additionally, no other GPS units have a firmware or operational software that is compatible with the BMS fire control and weapon control systems. ASEI currently has the proprietary rights of the firmware on the fielded units already in use in the fleet. Only ASEI can produce the ATACNAV units and thus is the only supplier who can provide the GPS/INS and SAASM Systems required by the BMS program.
