- Description
- ACC-APG-C4ISR intends to acquire repair services for the thermal imaging components identified within this announcement. This is for a possible five year Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contractual effort. The thermal imaging components consist of infrared optics, infrared detectors, and associated electronics. These components are utilized in the Abrams Thermal Receiver (TRU), the M1A2 Commander's Independent Thermal Viewer (CITV), the M2/M3A3 Improved Bradley Acquisition System (IBAS), the M2/M3A3 Commander's Independent Viewer (CIV), and the Long Range Advanced Scout Surveillance System (LRAS3) programs. They are also utilized in the Navy's Phalanx program. The purpose of this survey is to locate sources that have the capability to repair military-grade thermal imaging components and provide repair data for tracking and management of repair actions. This survey is published in compliance with Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 10, (Market Research). Past history for this repair service indicates the only known sources with the capability to repair the spare parts of the thermal imaging components were Raytheon Network Centric Systems (McKinney, Texas) and DRS Technologies (Arlington, Virginia). Our current market research efforts further indicate that the Government owns component level drawings for the components identified in this announcement. This request for capability information does not constitute a request for proposals. Submission of any information in response to this market survey is purely voluntary. The US Government assumes no financial responsibility for any costs incurred in responding or in any subsequent exchange of information. The repair services are for any or all of the thermal imaging components identified below: Description NSN Common Power Supply CCA 5998-01-530-1227 TIS Power Supply CCA 5998-01-530-1155 Imager 5855-01-464-1513 SADA IR Detector\Cooler Bench 5855-01-538-6686 Interface & Graphics CCA 5998-01-530-1095 Advanced Video Processor CCA 5998-01-530-3005 Motor Control CCA 5998-01-530-1438 Notched Afocal Assembly 6650-01-538-5879 SADA IR Detector\Cooler Bench 5855-01-538-6085 Advanced Video Processor CCA 5998-01-530-1174 EMI Filter 5915-01-534-2208 Answering this Market Survey The responses to this market survey will be used for informational purposes only. This is not a screening, information request or request for proposal of any kind. The US Government is not seeking or accepting unsolicited proposals.

Therefore any cost associated with the market survey submission is solely at the interested vendor's expense. The purpose of this market survey is to solicit statements of interest and capabilities from industry, including small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses and 8(a) certified firms. Potential vendors should provide information, data or documentation, which show that they have previously repaired thermal imaging components and/or military-grade thermal imaging equipment. For example, prior repair of thermal imaging components for US Government contract(s). Information received will be reviewed for form, fit and function. All proprietary and restricted information should be clearly marked. All responses to this market survey should be emailed to the Technical Point of Contact James W. Mcarthur, james.w.mcarthur.civ@mail.mil, 443-861-3029 by 7 Mar 2016 at 5:00 PM EST. Technical questions regarding the requirements in this market survey may be sent to the Technical Point of Contact.
