(1) INTRODUCTION AND PURPOSE: NAWCWD intends to award a sole source contract to Syracuse Research Corporation (SRC) for engineering services and other electronic component manufacturing in support of Advanced Threat Environments Signal Generation needs and the Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA) Integrated Product Team (IPT). In accordance with FAR 6.302-1, Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements, this requirement will be sole sourced from Syracuse Research Corporation, 6225 Running Road, North Syracuse, NY 13212. SRC is the only source capable of fulfilling the government requirement at this time. (2) PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: The Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA) Integrated Product Team (IPT) EA-18G program needs to procure two SRC6150E Keystone Cluster (KC) Cabinets and one SRC6130 spare Advanced Modular Pulse Simulator (AMPS) sever to include the installation and training on the use of these cabinets with the integrated Digital Generator (DGEN) system already in the AEA Systems Integration Lab (SIL). The AEA IPT EA-18G program has previously procured multiple cabinets that make up the Next-Generation EW Environment Generator (NEWEG). This multi-million dollar suite provides state of the art EW simulation technology for current and future EW testing systems. Within the NEWEG system, the DGEN subsystem enables this capability by executing models directly from EW Integrated Reprogramming Database (EWIRDB). However, due to Central Processing Unit limitation at the time DGEN was developed, there is limitation on which EWIRDB models DGEN can execute. The KC Cabinet is a high-performance computing cluster that enhances the simulation performance of the existing NEWEG DGEN. The KC cabinets are needed as an execution engine for reactive threat model simulation, with the goal of providing real-time execution of complex threat models that do not work on the DGEN alone. The KC cabinets work with the DGEN sub-system to execute real-time complex threat models that are “otherwise” unable to run in real-time on the DGEN AMPS server. This is not a follow-on contract. (3) REQUIRED CAPABILITIES: The AEA IPT EA-18G program is requesting SRC to fabricate, assemble, integrate, test, deliver, install, and demonstrate the use of two SRC6150E Keystone Cluster Cabinets and one SRC6130 AMPS that will be delivered to the place of performance. In addition, the contractor will need to provide engineering services support in the form of development of hardware and software system modifications as well as documentation, training, and maintenance support to the new systems. (4) PLACE OF PERFORMANCE: The efforts will be performed in Point Mugu, California. (5) CONTRACT TYPE: The Government is considering a Firm Fixed Priced (FFP) Contract with a single (1) one year period of performance. (6) SUBMISSION DETAILS Offers and responses to the solicitation shall be submitted using the instructions in Section L of the solicitation.
