The mobile SATCOM equipment will be state of the art, TCP/IP based, and capable of being remotely operated from anywhere in the world. The equipment must be rack mounted and capable of fitting within in a standard 20ft International shipping container (ISO). The Space Test Branch (SMC/SDTT), located within the Space Development and Test Directorate, is seeking Radio Frequency (RF) TT&C equipment compatible with existing Government Furnished (GFE) antenna systems. The equipment will be used to provide rapidly deployable, configurable, and self sustaining TT&C for SATCOM anywhere in the world. SMC/SDTT's current mission requires L band uplink and S band downlink, but additional systems must be modular to meet future customer waveforms such as X band and Unified S-band (USB). The supplier should be able to provide any or all of the following equipment * : 1. All Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) based equipment 2. Satellite telemetry L-Band/S-band Up/Down Converter (upgradeable to other waveforms i.e. X/C/USB) 3. Satellite Communication receive/command capability in SGLS with redundancy 4. Multiple selectable frequency/demodulator 5. Digital/Analog multi-channel recording capability with redundancy 6. Remote User Interface (UI) capability with ADCCP format 7. Adequate rack mounted power and surge capability 8. All associated interfaces and hardware between equipment 9. DoD Information Assurance (IA) compliant hardware and software * See attachment for specifications for each of the above items. Instructions for Submission: SMC/SD requests interested, qualified sources who can meet the attached requirements, to respond to this RFI. This synopsis is not a formal solicitation. The Government does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this synopsis, or to otherwise pay for the information solicited herein. This is an urgent requirement and all respondents must state their ability to respond to a request for proposal in 15 days or less and delivery of equipment within 120 days of a contract award. The Government is also interested in receiving commercial published price lists for items/equipment needed to meet the requirements of this RFI. Vendors can additionally provide a capabilities statement of no more than five pages in length that demonstrates the respondents ability to meet the requirements specified herein. SMC/SD will use the information gathered in the RFI to develop potential acquisition strategies. As such, responses from small businesses and small disadvantaged business firms are highly encouraged, as are responses from those businesses who may only be able to satisfy a portion of the Government's stated need. Firms responding should indicate if they are a small business, a socially and/or economically disadvantaged business, 8(a) firm, historically black college, and/or minority institution. The size standard for NAICS 334220 is 750 employees. Respondents should provide a non-proprietary response to this RFI if possible.
