- FOR MORE INFORMATION CONTACT:Denis Chan, Electronics Engineer, (732)532-1894 This source sought notice attempts to identify additional sources to meet future Legacy SINCGARS sustainment requirements. US Army, CECOM-LCMC, Logistics and Engineering Operations Directorate, Fort Monmouth, NJ 07703-5000 58 -- Market Survey for Single Channel Ground and Airborne Radio System (SINCGARS) 120310 Denis Chan, Electronics Engineer, (732)532-1894 This source sought notice attempts to identify additional sources to meet future Legacy SINCGARS sustainment requirements for the next two years. This notice is not a solicitation for bids. Contract W15P7T-05-D-J405, a five-year Indefinite Delivery and Indefinite Quantity type contract, was awarded on a competitive basis to Tallahassee Technologies Inc.(Talla-Tech),3000 Commonwealth Blvd, Tallahassee, FL 32303 in December 2004 to procure spare parts and provide sustainment support for the General Dynamics(GD)designed family of SINCGARS (RT-1523A, RT-1523D, AM-7239 and AM-7238). The Government is currently pursuing an effort to modernize the GD family of SINCGARS via obsolescence redesign/upgrade, to extend the service life of these equipments. To maximize the flexibility in modernization of the older assemblies, configuration control of the SINCGARS configurations under this contract has been reassigned to Talla-Tech to support this ongoing redesign effort, resulting in new drawings that have not been delivered to the Government. Consequently, the Technical Data Package (TDP) that supports the manufacture of these assemblies has become unstable because the redesigns are ongoing and drawings are not yet delivered to the Government for these redesigned configurations. The Government is seeking interest from alternate sources capable of producing a build to print version of these configurations. The proposed contract will be an IDIQ type contract with only the initial quantity being guaranteed. The contract will include requirements for repairs and engineering service to address obsolescence issues. Due to the engineering effort that is required to manage the GD SINCGARS configuration base line, interested sources shall have demonstrated capabilities in dealing with SINCGARS or other similar frequency hopping Combat Net Radios in the following categories: a) manufacture and repair complex Circuit Card assembly (CCA), b)redesign CCA to eliminate obsolescence, c)redevelop and/or trouble shoot software, d)testing at CCA and radio system levels. In addition, interested sources must be a U.S. vendor possessing the necessary security clearance to process Communications Security (COMSEC) equipment. Deliveries must begin within 9 months of contract award to include completion of First Article Testing (FAT) to satisfy Army sustainment requirement. FAT will be required for all sources other than Talla-Tech, that are interested in the proposed action. Sources capable of providing these items in accordance with the Governments requirements, to include the required delivery schedule, shall respond in writing. The response shall include a short introductory description outlining a viable approach that meets the above needs and should address production capabilities. Submit one electronic copy of the submission to the following: CECOM LCMC, ATTN: RDER-PRC-TR (Denis Chan), Telephone: 732-532-1894, Email: Denis.Chan@us.army.mil.
