- Description
- The Navy Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAV) Program Office (PMA 263) of the Program Executive Office for Strike Weapons and Unmanned Aviation (PEO (W)) is in the process of establishing an acquisition program for the Broad Area Maritime Surveillance UAV. The BAMS UAV will provide persistent unmanned, long dwell Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance (ISR) capability to the warfighter. Examples of BAMS UAV missions include: ISR queuing, strike support, SIGINT, and communications relay. It will act as an information collection hub and operate independently or in direct collaboration with other manned, unmanned, and space-based platforms. Industry day was held in December 2002 to relay the BAMS UAV program vision, acquisition strategy and obtain industry feedback. As follow-on to Industry Day, PMA 263 is hosting One-on-One sessions for all interested parties. These sessions are being offered to have companies provide specific technical capabilities, and, to foster mutual exchange of information discussing innovative acquisition strategy approaches to include spiral development, evolutionary acquisition, combined testing, and teaming or partnering with industry or Government. Individual sessions begin 10 February 2003. They will be held at Naval Air Systems Command Headquarters, Building 2272, 47123 Buse Road, Patuxent River MD 20670. The Government?s goal is to allocate two hours for the One-on-One discussions. DUE TO THE LARGE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS AT INDUSTRY DAY, IT IS HIGHLY ENCOURAGED, IF APPLICABLE, THAT INDUSTRY TEAMS COME IN FOR ONE-ON-ONE DISCUSSIONS VICE COMING IN AS INDIVIDUAL CONTRACTORS. To register for the One-on-One, companies may email Ms. Lynda Frattone at frattonelf@navair.navy.mil or telephone at (301) 757-5897 for registration requirements. Once the session is scheduled, you will receive a confirmation via email referencing the date and time scheduled, and the required visit request form to be completed. NOTE: VISIT REQUESTS MUST BE COMPLETED ON COMPANY LETTERHEAD, SIGNED BY THEIR FSO (OR AUTHORIZED INDIVIDUAL WHO CAN VERIFY/CERTIFY THE REQUIRED INFORMATION). THEY MUST BE SUBMITTED VIA FASCIMILE (301) 757-5840 PRIOR TO THE SCHEDULED ONE-ON-ONE SESSIONS. BASE ASSESS IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE SUBMITTING CONTRACTOR NOT PMA 263. This synopsis is for information and planning purposes only and does not constitute an invitation for bid or request for proposal, nor does its issuance restrict the government as to the ultimate acquisition approach. A contract will not be awarded as a result of this announcement. FURTHER, THE NAVY WILL NOT PAY FOR TRAVEL COSTS INCURRED. Technical questions can be directed to Mr. Keith Carter at (301) 757-5869, and programmatic issues to Mr. Rich Klesser at (301) 757-5879 or LCDR Mike Schachterle at (301) 757-5855.
